Make your own Raspberry & White Chocolate Blondies, Hamiltons Restaurant Wolverhampton

31Jul

In honour of our New Afternoon Tea Menu launching Wednesday 1st August at Hamiltons Restaurant Wolverhampton, here is the recipe to our Raspberry and White Chocolate Blondies for you to make and enjoy at home.

Raspberry White Chocolate Brownies (Blondies)
 Yields: 16 brownies
Ingredients
  • 5 oz/140 g white chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • ⅓ cup (75 g/2.6 oz) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • ½ cup (100 g/3.5 oz) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons (125 g/4.5 oz) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Line the base and sides of an 8×8-inch baking pan with foil, leaving enough overhang on the sides for lifting the brownies out after baking.
  2. In a medium heat-proof bowl, place white chocolate and butter. Place bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and stir occasionally until chocolate and butter have melted. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, then add sugar and mix to combine. Add eggs, one at the time, mixing until combined. Stir in vanilla. Sift flour and salt, then fold into batter just until combined. Fold in raspberries.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 17-20 minutes, until top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking, which will make the brownies dry. Let brownies cool completely on a wire rack, then lift them out of the pan and cut into squares (or refrigerate until completely set for perfect cutting).
  4. Brownies can be kept at room temperature or in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Alternatively, they can be frozen for up to 2 months, then thawed overnight in the fridge.

New & improved Afternoon Tea Menu at Hamiltons

25Jul

If you’re an Afternoon Tea lover and enthusiast then look no further, we’re launching our new & improved famous Afternoon Tea and Gentlemen’s Afternoon Tea menu from Wednesday 1st August. Hamiltons Restaurant is the No.1 spot for Afternoon Tea in Wolverhampton and our chefs have been working hard to better our famous Afternoon Tea to make it more enjoyable and delicious for our loyal customers with people travelling from all over the UK to come & experience it!

An Afternoon Tea at Hamiltons Restaurant has become a social occasion for many. Very popular with those celebrating a birthday, engagements, baby-showers or simply used as an excuse to catch up with friends. It has also become the ideal gift voucher to give to friends or parents who are celebrating a momentous occasion.

Our Afternoon Tea is an array of savoury and sweet, with our new smoked salmon bagel to grilled chicken, tomato & halloumi skewer, egg mayonnaise finger sandiwch and more. On the sweeter side for those who have a palette for all the sweet treats from rich carrot cake and delicious classic scones to raspberry & white chocolate blondie, cappuccino cream filled profiteroles and our mystery shot glass dessert. We serve unlimited tea and coffee and you could also upgrade your Afternoon Tea with a sparkling glass of Cava or choose from our Classic Cocktail Selection. We have seen a shift in catering towards a new crowd of Afternoon Tea lovers and now it’s not just for the ladies.

Our Gentlemen’s Afternoon Tea was crafted for gentlemen as an alternative pre-match lunch before a football game at the Wolves.  This platter is based on more masculine meaty, savoury options, featuring a new Cajun spiced chicken and prawn skewer, black pudding scotch egg, potato wedges, mini beef and pickled gherkin burger, also there is that need for a little sweetness so there are a few traditional sweet treats included.  We have an extensive range of whiskies at Hamiltons Restaurant. The single malt whiskies were introduced under the concept that a whiskey drinker takes time to enjoy savouring the flavours and aromas a single malt offers and afternoon tea isn’t by all means a quick occasion, it also needs time to be eaten.

Historical on the outside yet timeless on the inside. Hamiltons Restaurant  is an elegant fusion of old meets new.
Welcoming service, transforming Tea into a fabulous celebration for all.

We serve our Afternoon Tea Tuesday-Saturday 12pm-4pm.

If you would like to book with us or to find out more information on our new menu please give our team a call 01902 567628 or send us an email enquiries@aparkviewhotel.co.uk. We require a 50% deposit upon booking and a 10% service charge will be added to the final bill for parties 6 and over

 

Raving Reviews for Hamiltons Restaurant, Wolverhampton

24Jul
Choose from our Summer lunch menu, Afternoon Tea or why not enjoy a cocktail or meal as the sun goes down at Hamiltons Restaurant, Wolverhampton.
Don’t just take our word for it here are just some of our recent reviews;

We had 6 adults and 3 kids attending to the restaurant, and upon arrival we were greeted by the friendly manager. We booked a table an hour before hand, we were given an indoor table originally, but we realised they had an outdoor garden thus we asked if we could sit outside. The staff rearranged the table for us with no hesitation. We ordered steaks and pork belly, and they were amazing! Extra credits to the pork belly, the skin was so crispy and meat was very tender! Kids under 3 enjoyed free meals and desserts which was very generous too. It was a real pleasure dining at this place and would 110% come back again!! Highly recommended!!!

Had a great meal steak and fish was amazing will set be back had a lovely evening cocktails were quirky and had a lovely cheesecake for pudding.

We stumbled on Hamilton’s completely by accident, as we were visiting a relative in the hospital next door. The meal we had was fantastic. It was well presented and tasted amazing. We had the 2 course special deal for an amazing £18 per person. The staff were also really helpful. They called us a taxi when the heavens opened. Kept calling the taxi company to find out where they were, and the owner even went outside in the rain to look for the taxi to save us getting wet. We can’t wait to return and really recommend Hamilton’s, you won’t be disappointed.

WIRE Award Winner 2017 Wolverhampton

21Jul

Wire Awards Winner for Hospitality and Leisure Business of the Year.

Finalist for Excellence in Customer Service

To be nominated for a WIRE Awards was a great achievement for myself and my team but to win on the night was exhilarating. We take pride in the service we give to all our Hotel Guests and Restaurant Customers. The hotel provides first class hospitality with exceptional attention to detail and customer-focused care.  From when they walk in through the door, during their stay or there dining experience, to when they leave after check-out.

We were presented with the WIRE Awards at Molineux Football Stadium on Tuesday night.  We met a really interesting mix of local businesses, some we knew and some new faces. It was a fantastic opportunity for us to find ourselves amongst each other looking to achieve the same customer service in Wolverhampton.

The WIRE Awards were extremely competitive which ranged from Hospitality and Leisure Business of the Year to The Public’s Favourite Retailer of the Year and many more WIRE Awards finalists in between. I didn’t realise how strong the competition was in Wolverhampton.

We won the WIRE Awards for Hospitality and Leisure Business of the Year 5 years after opening A Park View Hotel and Hamiltons Restaurant. We are proud of what we have achieved and the recognition received.  Not only by being nominated but by all our customers in the Hotel and Restaurant.  The fantastic work by all the current staff and those who have come and gone they have always given there all to the business.

We will continue to provide the best customer service and hopefully will see everyone again in 2018
