Stop 4 - Bohemian 

With talented Head Chef Lorenzo Casu at the helm, the restaurant takes guests on a gastronomic journey through Spain. Bohemian's 5 hour braised beef cheek was our absolute favourite dish of the evening. The beef cheek was tender and delicious, with caramel undertones courtesy of being slow-braised. The cheeks fell away at the weight of our spoons whilst still retaining their integrity. The parsnip puree, vegetable escabeche and flower crisp was were the perfect accompaniments.
