Mya Lacarte full of delightful surprises

This must be one of the best menus Mya Lacarte’s produced, packed full of local ingredients and, because of the short menu, full of delightful surprises.

We had a Mya nibble of vegetable crisps and a chunky, tomato and coriander-rich salsa with our aperitif before choosing – and I’m quoting the exact menu description for you – Cornish Scallop (Cucumber. Radish. Purple Sprouting. Raspberry vinegar.) and a Cashel Blue Soufflé (Spring vegetables.) both at £6.95.

In the 1950s, beetroot was only seen in salads – diced and covered in salad cream or sliced and served in malt vinegar.
