| - My experience at The Forth started on the top level where we occupied ourselves with drinks at the bar while waiting for our table. We ended up trying a majority of the cocktail menu by the end of the night, and there is definitely a drink suited for everyone! My favourite was The Botonist which satisfied my fruitier preferences, while Kentucky's Finest Cocktail was a favourite of the hard-hitters.
With a party of 6, we were able to try a substantial portion of this seasonal menu neatly arranged under the categories "Snacks", "Appetizers", "Mains", "For Two", and "Desserts".
Definitely a meal with many dishes worthy of mention. You can't go wrong with any of the snacks and appetizers. Many had me sold with its visual appeal and artfully presentation (like the Trout, Steak Tartare, and Fois Gras Torchon), while others were more impressive on the tongue. The Burata seemingly appeared as a simple scrambled egg on toast, but the combination of sweet, salty, and savory flavours really took me by surprise. In terms of seafood mains, the perfectly cooked Scallops wins the battle against the Halibut, which was rather unmemorable. If you're feeling for red meat, then you will not be disappointed with the options at The Forth. The Duck particularly was my favourite - I can't resist a tender duck breast with crispy skin! And while I was relatively less enthusiastic about the dessert offerings, my belly was more than content with the delicious cocktails and dinner fare. A place I would definitely come back to!
