On
our
previous
visits
including
a
tasting
menu
,
sunday
lunch
and
last
year’s
outside
dining
experience
we’ve
enjoyed
fabulous
food
and
service.
But
after
our
lunch
yesterday
I
can
honestly
say
that
the
bar
has
been
raised
to
the
next
level.
The
service
is
still
as
good
as
it
gets
but
the
food
under
the
inspiration
of
head
chef
James
and
pastry
chef
Chris
was
definitely
the
best
we’ve
had
so
far
at
the
Greyhound.
So
now
on
to
saturday
which
started
with
our
hour
long
drive
from
east
to
west
arriving
in
the
delightful
town
of
Beaconsfield.
It
is
here
that
you
will
find
the
Greyhound.
When
we
entered
we
received
a
fabulous
greeting
from
Tom
,
Hannah
and
other
members
of
the
team
before
being
escorted
upstairs
to
our
table.
While
catching
up
with
Tom
it
was
nice
of
them
to
treat
us
to
a
welcome
back
complimentary
glass
of
sparkling
wine
which
was
followed
by
a
delicious
savoury
choux
bun.
While
looking
at
the
menu
it
was
nice
of
owners
Daniel
&
Margriet
to
come
over
for
a
nice
chat
and
tell
us
about
their
exciting
plans
for
the
future
which
had
already
started
with
a
bit
of
refurbishment
upstairs
and
downstairs.
Now
on
to
the
menu
where
there’s
a
choice
of
a
lunch
menu
,
a
la
carte
or
our
decision
the
tasting
menu.
With
this
we
chose
a
fabulous
light
and
fruity
Bulgarian
Pinot
Noir
that
complimented
a
majority
of
the
dishes
nicely.
We
started
with
bread
and
butter
which
was
followed
by
a
beetroot
and
pink
peppercorn
amuse
bouche.
We
now
move
on
to
the
first
course
of
Burrata
di
Bufala
with
a
walnut
pesto
and
broccoli
that
was
absolutely
delicious.
This
was
followed
by
a
favourite
of
mine
Veal
Sweetbreads
with
jerusalem
artichokes
and
capers
that
didn’t
disappoint
in
the
slightest.
Next
to
arrive
was
the
amazing
Orkney
Scallop
with
caviar
,
pickled
chilli
and
cucumber.
Next
on
the
list
was
the
optional
supplemented
Perigold
Truffle
Gnocchi
with
chive
and
parmesan.
As
my
wife
enjoyed
this
I
just
couldn’t
resist
a
dish
on
the
a
la
carte
menu.
This
was
an
Octopus
Terrine
with
confit
potato
,
red
cabbage
purée
and
lemon
that
was
easily
one
of
the
best
octopus
dishes
I’ve
ever
had.
We
now
moved
to
the
main
course
of
the
menu
a
heavenly
Harewood
Estate
Venison
Loin
with
a
fantastic
cottage
pie
,
smoked
cherries
and
trompettes.
This
led
us
to
the
cheese
course
and
a
delight
it
was
to.
A
Wensleydale
cheese
with
cranberry
and
thyme
which
was
a
nice
change
from
the
norm.
Now
it
was
time
for
dessert
but
not
before
enjoying
a
delicious
Pineapple
and
Pink
Peppercorn
drink.
This
led
us
to
the
dessert
itself
and
a
fabulous
creation
from
pastry
chef
Chris.
This
was
a
46%
Valrhona
Bahibe
Chocolate
with
malt
,
passionfruit
and
caramel
that
was
definitely
the
best
dessert
we’d
had
at
the
Greyhound.
We
then
received
a
nice
surprise
when
head
chef
James
came
up
for
a
chat.
This
was
great
as
we
could
personally
thank
him
for
the
amazing
food
which
we
told
him
was
the
best
we’d
had
at
the
Greyhound.
He
was
delighted
to
hear
this
but
you
could
see
that
himself
and
the
team
were
ready
to
push
on
to
the
next
stage
of
their
progression.
We
finished
with
coffee
and
petit
fours
to
bring
to
an
end
a
fabulous
dining
experience.
The
food
here
has
definitely
been
raised
to
a
higher
standard
so
yes
I
would
highly
recommend
a
visit.
You
will
also
be
given
the
very
best
service
led
by
Daniel
,
Margriet
,
Andrius
,
Hannah
and
Tom.
We
certainly
can’t
wait
to
make
a
return
visit
again
soon.
Thank
You
Daniel
,
Margriet
and
all
the
team
for
a
fantastic
lunch
and
look
forward
to
seeing
you
all
again
soon
