The end of August into late September is always a busy time for us Annwn - Restaurant
Any spare time is spent gathering what we can before we go into late autumn and winter where nothing much grows.
Knowledge, timing and preparation is vital to keeping our restaurant going at this time of year and into winter.
Summer ceps and Penny buns are popping up now and its also the time when we gather lots of rosehips.
The kitchen and dinig is filled with the smell of Boletus Reticulatus and Boletus Edulis drying out and then the soft sweet smell of the rosehips following close behind.
Autumn is here!
We are pretty much now fully booked for October, but we have spaces coming up in November.
The latter part of the year is I think the best time to join us as the game season comes into play, we use our local ingredients to express the season in an inspiring way.
The end photo is just a small example of what goes on at Annwn at this time of year.
Rosehips aged for at least two years are turned into a paste for use with vegetables or wild meats. The taste is extremly similar to tamarind, its unlocking things like this that are so important to what we do.
