LOVED
the modern fit out
the wine list!
the rice with mushrooms
the gorgonzola icecream with mango sauce (sounds weird but think how well sauternes and roquefort go together - the sweet and the salty)
food in general
the tea menu
the multi-lingual and very wine knowledgable service
DIDN’T LOVE
struggling to think of something here - the overpowering saffron sauce with the rice & mushrooms detracted from the dish - but was easy to eat around
ATE
bread with olive oil
scampi wrapped in pastry with a mussel and salmon roe
rice with trompette de mort (mushrooms) & saffron sauce
duck breast with polenta & rosemary
gorgonzola icecream with mango sauce
VALUE
day menu was brilliant E18 including 2 glasses of excellent wine
RESERVATIONS

PERFECT FOR
i. a civilised modern lunch - business or otherwise OR
ii. some serious wine indulgence - exploring Spain and the world
