Our love of food this night brought us to a small place called Beckta. Recommended by a friend and rated VERY high on the fine dinning lists, we decided to try them out. The restaurant is a small converted house, very well decorated. The atmosphere was done up with a bit of a modern flare with a small hint of rustic. Unfortunately, it took me a while to actually write up this post, so many of the finer details have already escaped me. I did want to make note of this place of what did stick in my mind.
We had a tasting menu made by Chef Michael Moffat and it was very good. I remember being wowed from the presentation to the flavour and tastes. The wine parings we had matched up perfect with the meals, which also ended with a wonderful cheese plate.
The service was top notch without being intrusive. Each wine was described to us about location and flavour.
I know this is a short and not super informative post, but I did want to give credit where credit was due. This is a place that I do want to go back. Chef Moffat has already opened up a second restaurant called Play which is on the list of places we will be checking out.
