For my birthday this year, my hubby surprised me with a lunch date at The Newmarket Room Restaurant. It turned out to be an unforgettable experience with amazing food, a quiet and cosy ambiance, and impeccable service.
We kicked off our lunch with some refreshing mocktails. I opted for a Strawberry Mojito that was perfectly sweet, tangy, and refreshing, while my hubby chose a Tropical Paradise blend (pineapple and passionfruit)—a fruity delight with just the right hint of citrus.
Entrees: A Perfect Start
- Chargrilled Octopus: Tender, smoky, and seasoned to perfection. The slight char added a delightful depth to its flavour, and it paired wonderfully with a tangy dressing.
- Lamb Cutlet: Juicy, perfectly cooked, and bursting with flavour. The herb crust was crisp and aromatic, complementing the succulent meat beautifully.
Mains: A Culinary Feast
- Chicken Roulade: Stuffed with herbs and cheese, the roulade was moist and full of flavour. It was served with a creamy sauce that tied all the elements together.
- Barramundi Fish: Fresh, flaky, and cooked to perfection. The buttery lemon sauce elevated the natural flavours of the fish, making every bite heavenly.
- Crispy Eggplant: As a vegetarian option, this dish was a standout. The eggplant was light and crispy on the outside, tender inside, and paired with a tangy tomato-based sauce that was simply divine.
Dessert: Birthday Bliss
For dessert, we indulged in a Dark Chocolate Mousse as my birthday cake. It was rich, velvety, and decadently chocolatey. The mousse was topped with a hint of sea salt and fresh berries, creating a beautiful balance of flavours that ended the meal on a high note.
Final Thoughts
The Newmarket Room Restaurant exceeded all my expectations. The food was absolutely delicious, with flavours that showcased the chef’s creativity and attention to detail. The ambiance was intimate and relaxing, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion.
Thank you, hubby, for making my birthday so memorable! 💕 If you’re looking for a place with incredible food and a serene atmosphere, I’d highly recommend checking it out.
