Beetroot

Significantly different from the previous rendition this was less than stunning. Didn't even really notice the supposed sweetness of the beetroot as it was cut into small chunks and overall it was just an average feta cheese salad W an unappreciated yoghurt sauce

Oh, and that in-house salted ricotta that's so creamy delish! An utter delight :)

Hello there, gorgeous.

I've never quite been a fan of beetroot—it's often rather bland and tasteless; never seemingly sweet enough. But tonight, Chef Glen Ballis made me eat this, and LIKE it. A lot.

Its earthy sweetness is so intense, it shocked me at how beetroot could reveal such flavors. The deliciousness comes at a cost, though—the whole process takes FOUR HOURS. I'm obviously never going to attempt this at home.

Here, the beetroot is served in a chunky wedge; where its sweetness is evident in each bite, and grated over a smooth and creamy smear of salted ricotta, along with pomegranate, chopped toasted almonds and spring onions. It's sweet, salty, crunchy and earthy all in one. What I mean to say is, it's FANTASTIC.

In the words of Oliver Twist, "Please sir (Glen Ballis), I want some more."
