What happens when a five-course menu refuses to play it safe? 👀🍽️

Steak Tartare. Droëwors Quiche. Hasselback Butternut. Cajun Grilled Salmon. And a finale involving bitter chocolate, crêpe cake AND avocado ice cream🌿🍫

This is not your usual dinner reservation. This is The Thistle Taster — where every course brings something you probably weren’t expecting.

Plot twist: you came for dinner and accidentally made a whole evening of it. 🥂

One course became another.
One glass became “we may as well.”
And dessert? Well… leaving without it seemed rude😏

That’s a night at The Thistle.

Some plans deserve more than a “where should we eat?” text🥂

Dress up. Put the phones away. Order something you’ve never tried. Stay for dessert. And remember why you enjoy each other’s company in the first place✨

Make a proper night of it at The Thistle Restaurant❤️

A bottle opened. Phones forgotten. Another course on its way. A conversation that somehow lasts much longer than expected.
