Dolly’s Tea House
(Falmouth)
The last place I visited on my travels was the wonderfully
unique Dolly’s tea House. Situated along Falmouth high street, the tea house is
set upstairs in a beautiful Georgian room.
It’s known for its quirky nature and if you are in the mood to engage
you can have a cocktail brought to you from a proper tea pot or experience
their flowering range of teas. Hebe, the pearl wearing Labrador may well also
come to see you.
Amidst the playful theatre of the venue are some truly
wonderful dishes. The best of which I feel is the lemon and crab crumble. I’ve
never really had anything like this before but it is an incredibly rich and
beautiful tasting concoction. Served
with gorgeous baked bread it is best described as delicately balanced crab pate
with spices and a lemon zing. A unique and lovely thing it deserves to be tried
upon a visit. Ever since I had it there are few days that pass where I don’t
find my mind drifting back to it. It’s one of those dishes that just makes
everything better.
