Wayland Green, the executive culinary artist at Granny Mouse, spends a lot of time researching and developing his dishes, to fit the season as well as ensuring that they are staying in line with the latest trends.<\/p>\n<p>With this new menu, there is something for everyone to enjoy, something that will satisfy everyone\u2019s cravings. One wouldn\u2019t usually think to combine the flavours of grilled monk fish with corn, or lentils with prune &amp; apricot compote- and yet that\u2019s exactly what Wayland Green has done. He enjoys using fresh, seasonal ingredients, to create new and inventive dishes. \u201cIt\u2019s important to let the flavours speak for themselves, and not to over complicate their natural, raw flavours\u201d, says Green.\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2363\" src=\"http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Cous-Cous.png\" alt=\"Eaves-Cous-Cous\" width=\"350\" height=\"265\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Cous-Cous.png 350w, http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Cous-Cous-300x227.png 300w, http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Cous-Cous-160x120.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To get started, the stewed pear and camembert with rocket and radish salad, candied cashew crumbs and raspberries is a dish that combines both sweet and savoury, and is an absolute must-try. Or why not try the grilled monk fish, saut\u00e9ed black cherry tomatoes, sweet corn puree with saut\u00e9ed baby leaf spinach and monk fish lemon butter? This fresh seafood dish is light, yet wholesome, and leaves you wanting more.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2364\" src=\"http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Monk-Fish.png\" alt=\"Eaves---Monk-Fish\" width=\"350\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Monk-Fish.png 350w, http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Monk-Fish-300x225.png 300w, http:\/\/www.goldfishcommunications.co.za\/a\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Eaves-Monk-Fish-160x120.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For those that enjoy the rich flavours of home-grown vegetables, the warm Moroccan lentil and couscous salad with spiced hummus, prune and apricot compote and coriander pesto is for you!
