Picture Perfect Plating
Picture perfect plating is a key ingredient in creating a memorable dining experience. Restaurant Interlude’s Estate Experience menu offers many (up to 21) courses – each deliciously made and perfectly presented. Our philosophy of excellence is translated into every single dish, taking you on a journey of flavours, textures and ingredients, through the Leonardslee Estate and Sussex’s finest local offerings.
Sensational Seasonal Menus
Chef Jean Delport and his team are committed to providing each and every guest with an exceptional dining experience. He says: “Every dish in each seasonal, multi-course tasting menu is designed to a hunter-gatherer concept of food that’s foraged, cultivated and raised on the estate or close by. It is enjoyed as an intimate dining experience; a small, exclusive dinner party within the estate’s Italianate mansion house”. Dishes such as the Not So Milk Tart, Rabbit Eats Carrot and Snail Fricassèe Parsley Garlic, are but a few of the seasonal courses to be savored.
