Delifonseca Dockside unveils ‘Cracking’ Easter Sunday feast

Delifonseca is set to serve an exclusive Easter Sunday set menu for the first time following the success of Mother’s Day.

On Sunday April 5, the award-winning Dockside restaurant will mark the national holiday by offering a specially selected three-course menu that has been devised by head chef Martin Cooper.

Proprietor Candice Fonseca said: “As Easter is predominantly a family orientated occasion, we’d like to encourage people to leave the cooking to us so that they can enjoy some quality time together. Easter should be a time for gatherings amongst loved ones and friends - not a time to be stuck in the kitchen!“

To begin their meal, diners can choose from a range of starters including Baked Figs stuffed with Blacksticks Blue and wrapped in Cheshire Air-Dried Ham; Chilli King Prawns with Samphire and Pea, Mint and Courgette Soup.

Main courses include Herdwick Lamb Rump served with Boulangere Potaotes, Courgette and Basil Puree and a Red Wine Jus; Fish Stew containing Red Mullet, King Prawns, Squid and ‘whatever else to boat brings in’, as well as Mushrooms à la Grecque served with a Leek, Lemon and Thyme Potato Cake topped with Melted Mature Cheddar and a Crispy Poached Egg plus Sunday roasts for the traditionalists.

Those with a sweet tooth can then enjoy desserts such as Easter Sunday Ice Cream Sundae; Vanilla Pannacotta served with Fruit Couli and Apricot & Pistachio Easter Trifle.

Candice added: “Whether guests prefer nostalgic Easter flavours or something a little more contemporary, our Easter Sunday menu is packed with unique foodie combinations that all of the family will enjoy. With that in mind, we’ve also created a suitably portioned menu for little ones.

“We hope that our inaugural Easter celebrations will be the first of many.“

The Easter menu is available at Delifonseca Dockside on Sunday April 5 from 12pm and is priced at £26.50 per person. Booking is essential and a non-refundable £5 deposit is required.
