First, Replete is now using fresh sweet corn. Second, they've raised the bacon bar to vertiginous levels with a superb, thick cut, deliciously tasty slab of honey-soy marinated bacon. Third, they've pulled off an inspired piece of fritter-fusion with an excellent sweet chili sauce. And finally, with po-mo flair, they crown the dish with an excellent pineapple salsa. It's almost as if the fritters are possessed by the spirit of a hawaiian pizza. Pig and pineapple. It's a match made in heaven.
Just wanted to say that I had the Replete corn fritters over the weekend and they were extraordinary - still living up to your raving review. As a vego, I was advised to swap the bacon (boo hoo!) for some spinach which was a very large serve, and literally oozing with green flavour. I added some 'hash cakes' too, which were very crunchy on the outside, softly texured on the inside and shaped into large lego-like blocks - delicious! They were a little greasy but perfect for curing my hangover.
ReplyDeleteLuckily is wasn't as busy there as is usual, so seating was surprisingly easy and the service was 10/10 - very patient, gentle and helpful, which is a must-do when dealing with people looking to right the wrongs of the night before.
In my opinion, your 'best fritters' award is still entirely deserved and consistently upheld at Replete.
Yum.
