Legends have added a new Winter Warmers section to their menu to warm you up during those long Winter afternoons on Brighton seafront.
I always think of Legends as a great place to catch a quick snack during my lunch hour. These new additions to the menu, along with the specials which are advertised daily on the blackboard in the bar, provides something more substantial for the ladies who lunch crowd – those who have time to spend, eating and chatting with friends all afternoon.
Most of the new additions you will find in the Winter Warmers section of the menu. The Moroccan Braised Lamb Tagine (£9.50) is stunning and would grace the menu of any high-end restaurant. Tender pieces of slow cooked lamb cooked in shallots, apricots, dates, spices, and served with spicy cous cous. Very tasty and highly recommended with plenty of tender, moist lamb to enjoy.
The Prawn, Haddock and Salmon Pie (£9.95) served in potato pastry is beautifully presented and does not disappoint. The sauce is not too creamy which allows the distinct flavours of each of the three fish the opportunity to shine. Highly recommended
.
If pies are your thing, The Braised Beef & Mushroom Shortcrust Pie (£8.50) served with creamy mash, vegetables and gravy is very impressive. Perfect pastry, lovely pieces of slow cooked tender beef and strong flavoured mushrooms. The consistency of the gravy is just right, and all in all once again this is a fine addition to the main menu this winter.
If time is not on your side, and you are popping in during your lunch hour, I suggest you try a couple of choices from the Bucket & Spades section of the menu where great deli styled sandwiches on thick artisan bread (£5.50 – £5.95), Home made Burgers (£9.50) and great salads (£7.95 – £8.95) are on offer.
The Norwegian Prawns (£4.95) served with Rose Marie sauce and buttered artisan bread are spectacular and my favourite dish on the complete menu. The Mozzarella Sticks with sweet chilli sauce (£3.95) are lovely and the Crispy Fried Whitebait with lemon, tartar sauce and buttered brown bread (£4.95) is great value for money, crisped to perfection and the portion substantial.
