Roots, York: A dynamic tasting menu showcasing the best of the north
Trying to recall a meal I had three weeks ago while I’m currently unable to taste or smell anything thanks to an overdue case of Covid – yep, that’s still a thing – is a strange experience. A kind of deprivation torture and sensory daydream all in one. Fortunately, it was a meal I won’t soon forget. I’ve been making a conscious effort to visit some of the UK’s stellar northern restaurants, and Tommy Banks ’ Roots, in York, is one that makes the trip worth it.
