Restaurant Michael Deane Belfast, United Kingdom

Opened to great acclaim in the late 90s, Deane's has played a prominent role in the upgrading of cuisine in Belfast, proving that there was a market here all along for fine contemporary and fusion food. As renowned Michelin-starred chef Michael Deane puts it, come and sample some "serious, indulgent dining". The clientèle range from high flying city types to Belfast's most distinguished visitors. Prepare yourself for such gastronomic delights as peppered venison with creamed artichoke, shiitake mushrooms and Jus of lemongrass or even crisped salmon with couscous, ratatouille and fried leeks or canon of lamb with roast scallops, celeriac mash, Pomme Aana and curry oil . Beware though, the menu changes regularly. There is a fine range of wines, with a bottle of house wine.
