Voyager Estate's Seafood Assiette provided the most satisfying seafood dish we had all trip. The marron was quite nice and fluffy, but it was probably overpowered by the thermidore sauced which accompanied it. The prawns had very nice, genuine flavour, but the lemon in the pea and mint crush crostini was a touch too pronounced. It would've been nice to of tasted more of that crush. The scallops were crusted beautifully with a very gentle coating of salt and pepper, which allowed their delicate flavour to see through. On that note, the scallops did have good flavour, but on the basis of appearance and texture, they appeared undercooked, which might have been why their true seafood flavour came through. Personally I'd heard the Margaret River had some exquisite seafood, which we went and sought out. This was the seafood higlight of our trip to the Margaret River. Although it was a good dish ($43), it wasn't exceptional.
