Sabor

Went back to Angel to explore the place as I didn't manage to do it last week, had to rush back to prepare the meal for M's friends. We saw a South American restaurant called Sabor on the toptable website with pretty good reviews and so we decided to try it for lunch. The starters were excellent. I had skewered chicken with a lime and citrus dressing with sweet potatoes with a cheese and mustard sauce. The flavours were sharp and delicious. M had corn fritters. I don't really like corn so I can't appreciate it. She said its good though. We were really looking forward to the mains but sadly, they don't meet up to the standard set by the starters. I had steamed red snapper in a banana leaf with coconut rice. The fish was alright, nothing really special and the coconut rice was way too coconuty for my taste. I am not a big fan of coconut so I guess I am biased. M had the cornmeal dumplings. I thought they tasted like muffins and the dressing for the salad that came with it was too strong, an overdose of mustard I think. M didn't like it as well. So not exactly a very enjoyable lunch experience but I guess for the price of 15 pounds per person, I shouldn't complain that much.
