Many restaurants in London offer great wines from various countries, and Boisdale Canary Wharf is one of them. We enjoyed the Rioja Crianza Vina Amate 2015 with our meal. This Spanish wine had a rich flavor and abundant fruit, with a nice blend of black and red fruits that complemented our steak. Its deep red color and pleasant aroma featured hints of oak and minerals. It was reasonably priced at £35.
Starer – Scottish Haggis
At a Scottish restaurant, I started with the Mini Roast Dumfriesshire Blackface Haggis, which came with mashed potatoes and bashed neeps. It was delicious, and at £8.50, the price was fair. As a starter, the portion was small, as expected. The sparkling water I ordered helped refresh my palate for the main course and our chosen wine.
Main Course – Tenderloin
Many restaurant menus do not offer large portions, but our main course had a good size. I ordered the twenty-ounce Buccleuch Estate Chateaubriand, which is a twenty-one-day dry-aged, cut from the thick end of the tenderloin. As promised by the chef (on the menu)
Service
I do not have any complaints about the service, as it was excellent. The food was delivered on time, and so was our wine and water.
