We are known for our warm hospitality, eclectic setting, unique décor and our come-back-for-more mussels in lemon garlic-butter sauce! 

Thank you to Chef Andy for sharing your recipe with us all - we can't wait to try it at home.

Ingredients: 

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/4 onion (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon garlic (fresh and crushed)
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1/2 cup cream
• 8 mussels (half shell)
• salt
• black pepper
• 1/2 lemon juice (and zest)
• 1 teaspoon fish spice

Method:

Melt the butter in a large skillet (with a lid) and saute the onion and garlic until soft. 

Add the white wine and simmer until reduced by two thirds – add the cream and fish spice and simmer for 2 - 3 minutes

Add the mussels and cover with the lid. Overt low heat, steam the mussels until cooked (about 8 – 10 minutes). Remove from heat and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Stir through the lemon juice and finely grated zest.

Serve with homemade bread and garnish with micro herbs.
