It was awarded a Michelin star in 1992, and a second in 1994; these were held until the restaurant was closed in 2001. HistoryLettonie was first opened by Martin Blunos in Bristol in 1988.[1] The restaurant was named Lettonie; the French word for Latvia.[1] The restaurant could seat 24 diners, but the French cuisine was considered to be at odds with the location – the restaurant was located in a shopping parade.[2] After nine years, the restaurant was relocated under the same name some {{convert|11|mi|km}} to his hometown of Bath, Somerset. While in the second location at Newbridge House, it became a restaurant with rooms.[3] The building was a Grade II listed building.[4][5] The location had previously been a hotel with 9 bedrooms, but under Blunos, these were reduced to 4, and a 34-seat restaurant and an 8-seat private dining room were installed.[2] Blunos closed the restaurant after 13 years, with a drop in advanced bookings from the United States blamed due to both the foot-and-mouth outbreak and the September 11 attacks.[6] After the closure of Lettonie in September 2001, Blunos opened Blinis in Bath, two months later.[7] This held two Michelin stars for a single edition of the guide in 2002.[10][8] MenuThe menu served at Lettonie was predominantly French in nature, although featured elements of Latvian cuisine. Dishes include a pork belly served with morels and a celeriac puree; at the time pork belly was an unusual dish to be served in a fine-dining restaurant. Blunos explained that he had originally had a pork tenderloin as well, but since diners preferred the belly dish, the fillet was dropped.[2] The signature dish of the restaurant was scrambled duck egg, which was flambéed tableside with vodka.[2] This was then topped with Sevruga caviar, and served with both buckwheat and plain blinis as well as chilled vodka.[2] A second dish which Blunos became well known for at Lettonie was one which appeared to be boiled egg and toast soldiers. It was however, a hollowed out egg filled with vanilla cream and mango coulis. This was then served with shortbread that had been sprinkled with sugar and grated chocolate.[2] ReceptionLettonie was first awarded a Michelin star in 1992 while located in Bristol. It was awarded a second star in 1994, and retained those when the restaurant moved to Bath in 1998 until it was permanently closed in 2001.[9] In 1999, Harden's restaurant guide listed Lettonie as among the best in the country.[10] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Martin Blunos, Esq|url=http://www.debretts.com/people/biographies/month/april/3054/Martin+Lauris+BLUNOS.aspx|publisher=Debrett's|accessdate=28 August 2016}} {{portalbar|Companies|Food|England}}{{Michelin stars in the UK}}{{coord|51.39089|-2.40256|type:landmark_region:GB|display=title}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite news|title=The Homecoming|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/14669/the-homecoming|accessdate=28 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=11 November 1999}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|title=The Return of Martin Blunos|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/55275/the-return-of-martin-blunos|accessdate=28 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=11 October 2004}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Newbridge House|url=https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1395939|publisher=Historic England|accessdate=29 August 2016}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Blunos moves to Bath|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/19175/blunos-moves-to-bath|accessdate=29 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=9 October 1997}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Blunos closes Lettonie after 13 years|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/38706/blunos-closes-lettonie-after-13-years|accessdate=28 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=2 October 2001}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Blunos Returns to Open Blinis in Bath|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/39613/blunos-returns-to-open-blinis-in-bath|accessdate=28 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=13 November 2001}} 8. ^{{cite news|last1=Rayner|first1=Jay|title=Blinis, Bath|url=https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2002/jun/02/foodanddrink.restaurants|accessdate=28 August 2016|date=2 June 2002}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|title=England |url=http://www.michelinonline.co.uk/travelshop/star-history/2011/rg-eng.htm |publisher=Michelin Online |accessdate=28 August 2016 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111010050251/http://www.michelinonline.co.uk/travelshop/star-history/2011/rg-eng.htm |archivedate=10 October 2011 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 10. ^{{cite news|title=New Harden's guide now features top Irish venues|url=https://www.thecaterer.com/articles/15490/new-hardens-guide-now-features-top-irish-venues|accessdate=28 August 2016|work=Caterer and Hotelkeeper|date=9 December 1999}} 8 : Restaurants in Bristol|Restaurants in Somerset|Hotels in Somerset|Michelin Guide starred restaurants in the United Kingdom|1988 establishments in England|2001 disestablishments in England|Restaurants established in 1988|Restaurants disestablished in 2001 |
