We arrived the night before to check out the menu and were blown away, being a set menu we required permission to add into our away budget. We were so excited when we got the go ahead and booked immediately.
Upon arrival we were greeted...and made to feel so welcome, the explanation of the menu was so detailed but not confusing, and pauses were made to allow questions. There were supplements to the set menu & oysters prepared three ways were also on offer.
To say it was a "gastronomic out of this world cuisine experience" would be an understatement. I chose scallops, wagyu & Japanese gelato for dessert, my colleague prawns, eye fillet & chocolate tart for her dessert.
We were so overwhelmed with wonderful textures, flavours & presentation of the dishes, by the time we left we felt nothing like colleagues having dinner together, we felt like we had been on an intimate date together.
That feeling came about by being submersed in the decadent furnishings, low lighting and accompanying music at a volume the promoted quiet conversations between diners that could not be heard by guests at other tables.
We learnt that you are expanding and we cant wait to book again, I haven't mentioned wines as we are both not drinking this year, but we very much looking forward to our next visit in spring, and the following one in the new year,when we will definitely will be enjoying accompanying wines from the extensive wine cellar. (The tablet feature on the wine list is yet to be explored). Just looking around at some of my favourite wines on display had my tannin taste buds almost convincing me to ask for a glass, however we stuck to our resolve and enjoyed refreshing sparkling water in stylish wine glasses - a perfect placebo effect.
We literally cant wait to come back, the two gentleman that took the greatest of care to ensure we had an amazing experience were nothing short of fabulous.
Unfortunately we left with a bang, my colleague accidently knocked over a water glass on the table next to us as she put her coat on, her apologies muffled by comforting comments saying it wasn't a problem .......
See you soon Stunned Mullet ..... and seriously that was us when we left !! Thank you to all of the team for making it such a memorable night - Sarah & Mel - we are telling everyone about you !!!More
