simply stunning - evening meal commenced with stuffed tomato, baked with herbs and spices, intense rich flavour yet remarkably light - ravioli filled with crab & lime puree simple yet sumptuous - main course "the legendary" beef wellington - Welsh black fillet steak smothered with pate de fois grais wrapped in parma ham & finally enveloped in the lightest egg washed shortcrust pastry - words fail me - this is the finest cuisine I have tasted - the steak simply melted - the pastry was infused with aromas of steak and it's wrappers - moist on the inside yet crispy and golden on the outside - baked to perfection resulting in a medium to rare cooked steak - accompanied by roast fennal, onions, dijon potatoes & julien of roasted veg - the visual impact of garnished dish was soon eclipsed by the richness, intensity and texture of tastes - desert arrived as a mixture of freshly made sorbets - summer fruits, kiwi & mandarin - topped with crystalised fruit and chocolate netting - these little stunners were light, refreshing with an essential concentrated fruit flaovour - all in all 3 courses of sheer luxury - I cannot fault the food, service, welcome or surroundings - a 3 course evening meals @ £29.95 dispels the preconception that eating @ the Coed - Y - Mwster is expensive - food of this quality is worth more than the table price -yes bar prices are expensive - a large G&T costs £6.95 - a pint of lager £3.00 -house wines commence @ £14.95 - exercise restraint @ the bar and you can afford to eat here more often - whats wrong with a nightcap in the comfort of home? - forget the image that this hotel is populated by the gin & jag brigade - I wore jeans & casual shirt -the Edwardian surroundings with log fires & high backed chairs add to the experience -the "Old Pictonians Perambulations Society" is dedicated to the "persuit of fine cuisine" @ the Coed-Y-Mwster we found it -go there & enjoy - you will not be disappointed - highly recommended
