Cambridge, Sunday 26 October 2014

In search of a new treat whilst visiting my son in Cambridge as an alternative to Fitzbillie’s and The Anchor (and Midsummer House strictly for birthdays), we ventured to d’Arry’s – a sound move. Creative dishes in good-sized portions: a sizeable hunk of salmon cured in vodka with horseradish and beetroot prettily arranged, preceded mains of black bass with mussels, squid and samphire and sea bass with smoked cauliflower and shallot. Fresh from gin tonic obsessed San Sebastian, I enjoyed too a cardamom and orange Plymouth gin & tonic. www.darrys.co.uk
