The Gourmet Girls visited Fire Stables on a recent summer evening. We started with Potato and Goat's Cheese Terrine, topped with Wye Valley asparagus. Accompanied by cold glasses of Colección Privada Reserva Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, the terrine was light and savoury, the asparagus nicely crunchy. This was followed by our mains- Corn-fed Chicken Breast and Market Salmon. The chicken breast was served with a delightful smoked mash, spring greens and a mushroom sauce. The salmon was superb- this fish is easy to overcook but ours was perfect and seasoned deliciously. It came with Fire Stables' signature salad of apple, fennel, radish and dill plus smashed Cornish "mids"- a seasonal new potato with a pleasant, sweet flavour.

We ended the meal with a selection of ice creams and a nut-filled homemade brownie. None were too sweet, ensuring a great ending to a really delicious meal.

During summer at Fire Stables you can sit in the open air at street level or inside as you prefer. An extensive, well-chosen wine list is available by the bottle or glass and craft and local beers are on tap. You might want to linger over a cocktail. The young and attentive staff make sure that guests are relaxed and happy. Opening hours are extended during Wimbledon fortnight where you can watch the tennis on TV. Visit Fire Stables if you can- we think it's ace!
