Even though many of us aren\u2019t totally enamoured by the commercialism of Valentine\u2019s Day, you won\u2019t find too many people who won\u2019t be licking their lips in anticipation when they\u2019re treated to a romantic dinner against a backdrop of true country charm and luxury at Granny Mouse.<\/p>\n
Granny Mouse\u2019s Eaves Restaurant is the perfect setting for a romantic dinner in the Midlands and executive culinary artist, Wayland Green, has conjured up an aphrodisiac-inspired menu especially for Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
Sensual starters include a Goat\u2019s Cheese, Spring Onion and Lentil Bake, Sundried Tomato Ragout, Olive Tapenade and micro herbs \u2013 lovingly paired with a Louisevale Ros\u00e9.<\/p>\n
Up next is a Squid Ink Risotto, Pan Seared Scallops, Paprika Crumbed Calamari Tentacles and Parsley and Lemon Pesto \u2013 accompanied by an exotic Velliria Jasmine.<\/p>\n
The third course is a lovingly prepared Springbok Carpaccio, Pistachio Cream Cheese, Portabella Mushrooms with Vodka infused Strawberries \u2013 paired with Sophie Te\u2019Blanche.<\/p>\n
This is followed by the fourth course which includes Grilled Beef Fillet, Sweet Pea Puree, Mixed Mushrooms, Fondant Potato, Crackling with a Port & Red Wine Reduction \u2013 with De Toren Delicate as the wine of choice.<\/p>\n
Of course, the ultimate end to a fine romantic dinner is dessert which is rich with the ultimate aphrodisiac – chocolate.
