Catch 22 Brasserie: A hidden gem on Anglesey’s coast 

On Anglesey’s beautiful west coast, Catch 22 Brasserie is a family-run restaurant that feels like a local secret. Head chef Neil, along with his wife Mel and her sister Ellie, have created something truly special here – a place where great food and a Welsh welcome come together.

What’s on the menu?

While seafood is a firm favourite here – no surprise with the coast so close – the menu offers much more. Inspired by local ingredients and a mix of flavours, everything is about simple, quality food that’s cooked really well.

There’s no pretence here, just great food, friendly service, and a cosy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.

Catch 22’s Chocolate Orange Mousse

Want a taste of Catch 22 in your own kitchen? This Chocolate Orange Mousse recipe is a rich and indulgent delight. Here’s how to make it.

Ingredients

  • 150g whipping cream
  • 1 orange, zest and 40g juice
  • 35g caster sugar
  • 125g dark chocolate (65-70% cocoa)
  • 2 medium free-range eggs, separated into white and yolks
  • Extra whipping cream and Crunchie chocolate bars (to serve)

Method

  • Put the cream, orange zest, orange juice, and caster sugar into a pan on a medium heat
  • Once simmering, remove the pan from heat, add the chocolate and egg yolks, and whisk until smooth
  • Use a mixer to whisk the egg until stiff peaks form
  • Allow the choc mix to cool slightly and then fold in the whipped egg whites in three stages, mix until combined
  • Divide the mixture into 4 glasses, put into the fridge for a minimum of 6 hours to set (the mixture will look a bit wet at this stage, like a thick batter, but don’t worry, it will set)
  • When you are ready to serve, top the mousse with a little whipped cream, then smash up a Crunchie bar and add as much as you like.

If you’re heading for a trip to Anglesey, Catch 22 is well worth a stop. Whether you’re there for the seafood, the friendly hospitality, or just a relaxing evening with great food, you’ll leave with a smile on your face.
