We all the know benefits of buying locally grown seasonal produce rather than taking a trip to the supermarket. But what about when it comes to eating out?
John Molnar, former Exec Chef of the award winning bluu group which included The Red House at Nether Broughton, thinks his latest venture, the Larwood & Voce in West Bridgford could well be the answer.
The Larwood & Voce is committed to adapting their menu to accommodate seasonal change as well as sourcing quality local produce ensuring you get the freshest ingredients available by keeping the time between field and fork to a minimum.
Spanning 5 counties, The East Midland’s varying landscape supports a diverse range of farming. From the thriving pork industry in Nottingham to Leicester’s famed dairy production and Derbyshire’s sheep and arable farming, the region is abundant with fantastic produce.
Working alongside local suppliers such as Owen Taylor & Son, butchers for over 10 years, Molnar knows that having a good relationship with farmers, growers and producers is paramount. Utilizing the knowledge of local suppliers means the menu virtually writes itself and showcases the range of produce currently in season. Molnar’s commitment to sourcing local produce sees the Larwood & Voce embarking on a West Bridgford allotment project where the establishment’s vegetables will be grown within striking distance of the kitchen.

As a group of 10 we ate a number of starters, mains and desserts. Both the chicken terrine and smoked haddock starters went down well. The mains were a little more mixed, with the beef pie being a highlight but the lemon and herb chicken a bit of a let down - the cumin roasted tomatoes and peppers that went with it were not as described and was actually a tomato ragu! All the puddings were enjoyed. We all thought the service was rather slow and lacked any personal touch at all. It was rather busy and the staff were hurried and only just getting by. There was an error on the bill which was rectified when we pointed it out but no apology offered - just that personal touch would have been nice! We went on a half price January deal and all agreed that for the price we paid the food was well matched but all 10 of us agreed that we would not go again and pay the full price for the food as we just didn't feel it offered much more then a standard pub fayre - very nice but nothing special.

Not bad at all for a gastro pub. The atmosphere wasn't the best but that was ignored when the food arrived. I had the slow roast pork belly which I have to say was absolutely amazing. The presentation was pretty mediocre, I have seen prettier dishes and it only came with lentils, could have definitely done with some stodge of sorts. The flavour and texture though was divine. The real shock was the price, we came on the 7mags night which meant the dish was only £7, which was possibly the best value meal I've had in my life. Service was fairly prompt and waiting staff were friendly enough, if not a little informal at times. I would recommend it to friends.

Very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Felt a little rushed when we were being told about the special foods and wine that were on offer before we had sat down, but otherwise very good service and very good food.
