"Precise flavours and modern techniques – and dinner’s at 7pm."
Overview
At Wilder the show opens for everyone at 7pm, and it’s a no-choice, eight-course ‘surprise’ tasting menu that unfolds in a calming, neutral space run with great verve and knowledge by an engaging team. The kitchen’s passion for off-the-wall flavour combinations, British ingredients, foraging, fermenting and preserving underpins the whole experience: roast organic chicken breast comes with miso and sweetcorn purée, truffle and a side dish of thigh meat and mushrooms in cabbage with lemon cream, followed by an intriguing sweet and savoury dessert of tomato pannacotta with Pernod, black olives, white chocolate ganache, basil ice cream and tomato sherbet. Well-chosen wines and creative soft drink flights are available to add further interest.

About the area
Gloucestershire is home to a variety of landscapes, including the Cotswolds, a region of gentle hills, valleys and gem-like villages that roll through the county. To their west is the Severn Plain, watered by Britain’s longest river and characterised by orchards and farms marked out by hedgerows that blaze with mayflower in the spring; beyond the Severn are the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley
