Blooming Flavours

An exhibition of freshness and delight

Ta’ Frenċ is known for its commitment to using only the freshest and in-season products when it comes to curating these original dishes. In charge of this menu is professionally and internationally trained Executive Chef Joseph Brincat. As always, he never fails to deploy his utmost attention and experience when it comes to creating these dishes, turning relatively simple star ingredients into uniquely detailed dishes.

First on the menu is a delightful and colourful vegetarian dish, warm grilled zucchini which is marinated in Gozo’s local goat cheese, topped with hazelnuts, sourdough bread crisps and rocket leaves. Amongst the pasta dishes, can be found a stunning dish of black Sardinian gnochetti, incorporating a rich shellfish sauce with butter-poached calamari and clams. For the main course, it is hard to resist a succulent roasted lamb loin accompanied by French and broad beans, almond and anchovy purée and more. To satisfy your sweet tooth, a perennial favourite, the Grand Marnier soufflé with vanilla ice-cream and sauce anglaise.

As well as the new dishes, there will also be a tasting menu, for which you put yourself in the chef’s hands. He takes the main elements of the A la carte menu and creates an exquisite 8-course journey. As always, a wine pairing for every dish, carefully chosen by director Joseph Tabone himself, can be selected with the menu, as can an additional cheese platter.

Ta’ Frenċ is internationally renowned for its exceptional food and this new menu is no different. Be sure to take a look at the full menu and information to learn more.
