Had a fab meal, my lamb was super. Hubby had turbot and I had a taste but tbh I was disappointed with the turbot, didn't have much taste.
The scallops were fantastic...hubby had the biggest scallops I've ever seen! I had salmon but I wished I'd had the scallops too.
It was all beautifully presented and the butter was carved into a rose with lots of individual petals - first time I've ever seen that.
Pudding was a pineapple tart with a pina colada and cream cheese ice-cream. Very sweet but good.
Hubby had a glass of Hine 1914 Cognac, silly bu88ers that we are, we didn't ask the price.....I coughed a bit when we got the bill - forty quid for one (very small) glass!
All in all it was a lovely evening, and we enjoyed a stroll around Ilkley town centre this afternoon - much bigger and nicer in Ilkley than we were anticipating.
Would like to go back to The Box Tree again, even though it was very expensive.

Hiya DT, we went to Le Manoir a few weeks ago (part of my son & DIL's wedding present). Was pointless buying them much as they've lived together for a long time and have everything they need. So we bought them some excellent pans (son loves cooking, just like his dad) and took them to Le Manoir. We didn't stay over though - we stayed at an old coaching inn about 4 miles away.
We had the most fantastic time at Le Manoir. It was amazing. We had the tasting menu, together with matching wines. A night we will never forget. Did you stay over? Perhaps one day we will, fingers crossed.

No Mrs C - have done tea and dinner there - we didnt live a huge distance away so the stay over was a wee bit redundant. The decor is great (the first Restaurant programme was ridiculous the way they had that tarts bordello at the back of the house!
Do you remember the hens in the garden, ready to pounce on any of those delicious appetisers with drinks.....
Have said to many that if you can't afford lunch or dinner, then go for tea as that is an experience and a half.....
