Michael Caines at Abode Canterbury Description
Abode hotels are on the march, the latest in Canterbury, with the mix much as in the others under the reassuring guidance of Michael Caines fresh from his leadership from the front after having a major hand in cooking the Queen's birthday celebration lunch. The boutique hotel is a masterpiece of redesign by Plumtree Mee and the dining room in particular, in muted shades of non-gloss, is restful and calming.
Which is just as well because the menu is something to get excited about, starting with a choice of seven dishes that could include ballotine of quail with leeks and summer truffle, pan fried red mullet, or ravioli of Kent lobster with Savoy cabbage and lobster bisque.
Roast best end of Romney marsh lamb with creamed vegetables and a brochette of lambs saddle and kidney leads the mains, with roast breast of guinea fowl, pan fried wild sea trout, and sirloin of Kentish beef all making regular appearances could make this one of the best meals you have enjoyed for quite a while. I still think wild sea trout remains one of the best fish dishes there is.
Great attention is paid to the cheeses here, with Lanark Blue, Grimbister, Waterloo and Brucklay amongst others often to be encountered, leaving only the pudding with Scottish cranachan soufflé or a classic apple tart tatin supported by vanilla ice cream and butterscotch sauce amongst the six or so choices.

Your Reviews of Michael Caines at Abode Canterbury
Stephen (7 August 2008)
We ate there at the end of July 2008. The decor was attractive although perhaps a little austere. The food was excellent and the members of staff, quite friendly for a formal restaurant. I would eat there again and also try the attached pub as it was quite expensive. My only complaint is that although the restaurant was quiet the service was slow; particularly the main course and our orders were mixed up. We were given others food, which was ordered after us. It took nearly three hours. Also they had run out of Pimms. As they were not busy being a weekday night, and the fact that they were in the main street of Canterbury, surely someone could have gone to the nearest ‘off licence’. The main thing is that the food was good and plentiful. I would recommend it.
