There have been some restaurants that I’ve been back over and over - the 2 starred Waku Ghin and its sibling restaurant Wakuda being prime examples, and of course, Les Amis and Odette being the others.
This, as gut bursting and relatively affordable as it was, probably wouldn’t be one of them.
The service was a major let down. Firstly, they ran out of ingredients (the oyster) and while the replacements (octopus and prosciutto) were tasty in their own right, the waiter forgot to ask if we took pork or octopus. I had to let her know that waifu says notto to octo and without checking with us, she brought waifu the pork based replacement.
Secondly, they changed cutlery for every dish - and promptly forgot to give us cutlery for the 2nd mains!
Thirdly, for the tea, they ran out of peppermint tea which was what waifu wanted….
When we dine at a Michelin starred restaurant, we obviously expect not only good food but impeccable service.
This, sadly, wasn’t one of those places.
I’d be surprised if they kept their 1 star ….
doesn't sound like a good experience at all, apart from the dishes.
they do need to train their staff better.
