Weekend Roast Lunch

Those of a certain age will remember what it was like to dine at Gordon Grill back in the 1960s. Originally known as the Gordon Room when it first opened on Jul 30, 1963, the oldest dining establishment in Goodwood Park Hotel had a reputation for serving some of the finest steaks in town and refined Continental cuisine.

Gordon Grill in the late 1960s and early 1970s

Tableside dining experiences were a feature at Gordon Grill; and its ubiquitous beef trolley was a familiar sight among regulars. Its signature Crêpe Suzette dessert was flambéed with flair in the presence of diners. 

All these and more are back for the month of July as it celebrates its Diamond Jubilee this year. The restaurant presents a line-up of updated nostalgic creations that had previously graced its menus through the years. A popular roast wagon menu is also offered for leisurely weekend lunches.

Start with the comforting Cockie Leekie, a traditional Scottish soup prepared by simmering barley, chicken and leek in a peppery chicken stock for two hours; or Prawn Cocktail with plump chilled Tiger prawns that are served in a, well, cocktail glass.

Cherry Jubilee

For dessert, Cherry Jubilee is a must, prepared a la minute in front of diners. Sweet dark pitted cherries are cooked on a pan laced with butter till slightly softened, then flambéed with brandy, and plated with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and sprinkle of almond flakes.

Look out for special 60th anniversary promotions. From now till 16 July 2023, diners can enjoy a complimentary glass of sparkling wine, house red or white wine with every a la carte order of the flambé dishes.
