It was a lovely experience at Bernelių Užeiga, Shepherd's Inn Beckton where you feel transported into Lithuania not only by the unique newspaper style menu but the royal decor and pictures all over the place.
I found it similar to Mamuska which is Polish at Waterloo in terms of the menu there as well.
Although food was good, the service and quality could have been better.
For starters had the Varškės Sūris cheese which is a baked cheese.
This was a brilliant start as the taste and texture of the cheese was amazing, the texture is similar to firm tofu with a bit of resistance spiced with herbs like oregano etc.
It is so moreish that you keep going back for more.
The only thing that was strange was the saucers given to us for use as sharing plates because it was identical the one I got for the tea.
For mains, the Bulvinių Blynų Bokšas Su Varškės Padažu ir Lašiša (potato pancakes with salmon) was lush especially the potato pancakes which were soft and sticky with a strong potato taste.
The salmon was ok but not as nice as the ones other people have posted on instagram because it contained dark grey edges which is cosmetically not nice.
The dumplings Koldūnai Angelų Ašaros were the usual pork filling dumplings which were rather creamy and heavy.
Last but not least, the bread ice cream Duonos Ledai which was an interesting finish with crispy black rye pieces.
Strangely the plates were not cleared and dessert was served asap.
It wasn't bad but it tasted like cheap ice cream at an expensive price.
