Seddon 64 Eatery and Bar — Restaurant in Franklin

Having lived in some of the world's food meccas and experiencing food in fine dining establishments ,our experience at Seddon left us wondering and underwhelmed. While the service and ambiance were great, the prices and quantities were the opposite. I ordered chicken liver as entree and kumra fries, my partner ordered the crispy duck breast . we both agreed that the flavors were good but the quantity was on the very stingy side. 23 dollars for two small pieces of chicken liver with a thin 4 cm piece of puff pastry is by all means very expensive . With all due respect, Seddon is NOT a fine dining restaurant in Paris or New York. . the duck breast was done beautifully but was more like a duckling , pretty small for the hefty price of 42 dollars.

The meal could not have been better. Starting with focaccia bread and farinata from the pizza oven with house smoked olives on the side. For the mains we as a group were admittedly very boring, all opting for the duck. That was until my wife decided not to be boring and had two entrees, octopus and the Clevedon mozzarella. None of us were disappointed. The meal was excellent, without fault. This was not a cheap meal but it was excellent value for money. Go, eat, you...
