Une étoile MICHELIN : une cuisine d’une grande finesse. Vaut l’étape !
Des produits de première qualité, une finesse d’exécution évidente,des saveurs marquées, une constance dans la réalisation des plats.
Beside Hadrian’s Wall, in the beautiful Northumberland countryside, sits Vallum Farm – a small community of businesses which includes Cal Byerley and Siân Buchan’s rustic first floor restaurant. On Friday and Saturday they serve afternoon tea, while in the evenings it’s all about showcasing Northumbrian ingredients on a multi-course tasting menu. Cal knows the local area intimately and, as well as plucking fresh ingredients from their kitchen garden, leads his team on foraging missions and seeks out small independent producers, farmers and growers. Using this produce, he creates small, finely crafted dishes which are full of colour and really pack a punch. Flavours reflect the area and all parts of the ingredients are skilfully used, with some preserved for later use. The English wine flight is worth going for, and they also make their own juices, tonics and teas.
