I recently had the pleasure of testing out the May menu from fine dining delivery brand , ‘ One Fine Dine ’ to see if it is truly possible to achieve a fine dining experience at home .
With the promise of Michelin-worthy meals delivered to your door , One Fine Dine believe they can offer you a unique home dining experience . So , after spending an age looking over the mouthwatering May menu , I decided to go for a selection of different dishes including whipped Ashlynn goats ’ cheese , heritage beetroot salad and line caught Cornish Sea bass .
When the package arrived , each dish was contained in individual boxes with a clear colour system , so you knew exactly what components went with each dish . When it comes to putting the dishes together you can either opt to follow some online video tutorials or make use of the meal cards that come with the dishes , again colour coded for each meal .
Overall , the whole experience was outstanding , from the service on delivery , the detail of thought given to the customer , to the outstanding quality of food . The entire evening was an absolute joy and anyone looking for a fine dining home experience I would highly recommend One Fine Dine .
Before the package arrived , I was slightly concerned about the amount of time it would take to prepare the meal . From previous experiences when cooking a large meal , it can sometimes be rather stressful , which then makes the meal less enjoyable . However , I must say on this occasion that was not the case ! Each dish took minutes to prepare and using the guide provided I was able to create some beautiful plates of food while not spending an age in the kitchen .
