Vegetarian Menu at L’Enclume a few days ago. We dined there last year at roughly the same time, shortly after they had won their third star and I don’t think they have any intention of relinquishing it; even better this year! Menu as below.
Boltardy beetroot, rose and preserved tomato tart. Juices infused with perilla
Fritter of Conqueror sweetcorn. Lovage and fermented sweetcorn
Berkswell pudding caramelised in Birch sap. Stout vinegar, aged Berkswell
Noriko kohlrabi, fresh curds. Sunflower seed and marigold
English mushrooms in our miso butter, soft yolk. Mushroom stock, dark beer (bread and butter with this course)
Fuseau artichokes, grilled Maida Vale. Tarragon and chrysanthemum
Seaweed custard, onion broth and wakame. Ibis celeriac, White Lisbon onion
Semi dried Cylindra beetroot, caramelised pine nut. Smoked beetroot and elderberry
Snowball turnip with rosemary. Smoked vegetable broth, elderflower
Duncan cabbage grilled over Binchotan.
Horseradish and preserved truffle
Braised grains with fermented beans.
Black garlic, crisp sourdough (not pictured my bad, but served with the above course as a side. Also some very thiccc Parker house rolls with this course)
Frozen Tunworth cheese. Malt crumb, quince and lemon thyme
Yorkshire rhubarb, pumpkin seed and fig leaf. Caramelised molasses, oxalis
“Anvil” Caramel mousse with our other miso, apple and spruce

Every single time I’ve seen someone past about this restaurant, every course looks simply define. Coming from someone who isn’t vegetarian, I don’t think I would have missed the meat at all.
Stunning
the final course happened off site when the diners went out for a meat lovers pizza afterwards
Wow, gotta love a place that doesn’t skimp on the cheese! Everything looks beautiful.
OP, what’s the leaf made of in the 15th slide?
As a Cumbrian it always makes me weirdly proud to see L’Enclume on here.
Really need to make a trip up north for this, been meaning to for ages, thanks for posting. Looks brilliant
I used to be a leader in the scouts in cartmel. And always said I’d take a trip to L’Enclume one day. I never did and this has bought up that regret all over again. Looks stunning and great to see a good a vegetarian option!
