Yum 🤤

Kingfish carpaccio, riesling & dill pickles fennel, hazelnut & black garlic cream, quinoa crisps
😍😍😍
This dish pairs perfectly with the 2015 Tim Adams aged riesling,
The wine has a well lifted riesling character with a slight oily finish and citrus aromatics of lime, lemon and grapefruit that complements and brings out the flavours in this dish
