Restaurant review

A masterclass in Michelin-starred fine dining, the chic and cutting-edge Bohemia restaurant has received accolades galore for its exciting flavour combinations and luscious presentation. The setting features top end décor to match the high quality smooth service.

Dining doesn't come much more decadent than a Michelin-starred meal at Bohemia. Arrive in time for your table reservation and you'll be shown to reserved seats in the swish bar, set out with menus to browse over cocktails and amuse-bouches. It's impressive enough, but the real action begins in the restaurant where new chef Steve Smith has been let loose on prime local produce - with mouthwatering results.

Startling combinations melt into sublime concentrations of flavour and texture, and each intricate course is presented with precision and panache. Dishes like the haddock with hen's yolk and the signature scallops with truffle, celeriac, apple and smoked eel are exquisite and punctuated with beetroot, sorrel and liquorice flavours. This is fine dining with a fresh, modern edge. Even the butter gets the Steve Smith treatment, presented as a cone and infused with Jersey seaweed for a salty hit of umami.

Intricate courses

Main courses are far more intricate than the menu descriptions suggest and add an extra dimension to some carefully chosen local ingredients. The signature turbot in a creamy shrimp sauce gets a vinegar hit from the pickled grape and cauliflower for a superb balance of flavours, and the smoked beef sirloin and braised cheek was rich and mouthwatering with an excellent sauce of onions and girolles. These are refined and considered dishes which are presented beautifully on coloured plates to heighten the contrast of colours, flavours and textures.

Desserts are fresh, contemporary and highly seasonal. Expect an exquisite, crisp flavour experience with inventive touches, from the Jersey black butter with crystallised blackberries and pressed apple or the signature Chocolate Mayhem with its rich lime-tinged edge. And if you're really feeling innovative, the sommelier has come up with an alternative list of paired drinks for Steve Smith's menu that includes Lapsang Souchong tea, a shot of Grey Goose vodka and a local vintage cider.
