Elaine Lemm takes the weight off her broken tibia on a lunchtime visit to the newly opened Rhubarb in Harrogate, where she is glad of the elevator and attentive staff.
Getting out and about for me is still a big problem several weeks into a broken tibia, as anyone who has had one or similar will understand. I’m managing between crutches, a wheelchair and a wonderful husband. But I didn’t think of calling ahead to check accessibility for my visit to the recently opened restaurant Rhubarb in Harrogate, so I thought I had landed us in a right old pickle when I saw the swathe of steep stairs up to the front door.
Two sourdough breads, one wild garlic and the other apricot, are equally moreish, though for me, anything slathered in Marmite butter is a winner. Across the way, he argued that the chicken liver butter was better. So it’s good that we like different things. A generous bowl of beef tea with braised oxtail and root vegetables, probably better suited to a winter's day, was more than appreciated on this exceptionally brisk spring one.
