Dinner out at Le Truc Vert

The menu. Shockingly, I couldn't find steak. I looked a number of times, but what do you know, a restaurant without steak. Never have I heard of such a thing,

Driving, so no wine, and delighted to find a great range of juices. The Williams' Pear juice was excellent, not too sweet, and lightly perfumed

Smoked salmon to start. Good, but excessive portions

Calf's liver with mushrooms, roasted red onions and fig

An adequate meal, but overpriced, and a little bit hit and miss. Frustrating, bacause with a few changes (balsamic vinegar and rocket not needed with every dish, for example) it could have been great. Given how quiet it was on a sunny Saturday evening it seems I'm not the only one to wonder what sort of restaurant Le Truc Vert is trying to be - too expensive for a country pub, yet not quite polished enough for a fine dining restaurant.
