[Cumbria, England] L'Enclume - a must or bust ?

No doubt to late for Emlyn but I’d take the view that L’Enclume is a “must” and reckon the Good Food Guide’s scoring it best restaurant in the UK is probably spot on. It’s inventive food and the journey through the various tasting menu courses generally works and is well paced.

By the by, the Guide has Simon Rogan’s Fera (in London) at #15 and The French (in Manchester) at #18. Which beats me why the former gets a Michelin star after its first year of trading, whilst the latter remains starless three years on.
