National Breakfast Service by Olivia Barry
National Breakfast Service by Olivia Barry was Olivia's starter on Great British Menu 2018 where Olivia was representing the South West.
The thought behind this is dish is that the NHS is a British institution. To celebrate this, I have chosen to do reinterpret another British institution, English breakfast.
This dish consists of black pudding, bacon jam, field mushrooms, quail egg and tomato sauce and thinly slice fresh wild mushroom.
