Delicious Dinner at White Hart Brasserie, Lydgate - Oldham

Time of visit: October 2013


One of my 3 favourite restaurants

I was recommended by my friend, TD, who lives in the area. When I made the booking, I found out there were 2 restaurants in the same premises: one was called 'restaurant', the other was 'brasserie'. Because the menu of the brasserie looked more interesting, we decided to go to the brasserie. I also found out that the restaurant had a special offer for Monday night, 5-course meal for two people for only £39.95. Mr Be treated our daughter, RB, to go with her JG to try it out. They said it was superb!!

Back to the brasserie.. Basically the place is like a pub with some seating to dine. But with tie and black coated staff it gave the impression as a rather formal fine dining eatery. 
Don't get me wrong.. The staff didn't make you feel unwelcome or uncomfortable. They were all very nice. The food was superb!!!! The portion on each course was just right, not too much. You were given some breads and butter as well while waiting for your food to come. 

I thanked TD for telling me about this place. For few days after the event I kept writing on my Facebook how good White Hart was. 
I was really impressed with the venison steak (well, actually with the starters as well), one of the best dishes I have ever eaten, that is why I raved about this continuously.
While I was writing this, I was talking to Mr Be and discuss when we are going to revisit White Hart. Perhaps in June, for our wedding anniversary. Next time we will try 'the restaurant'.
