Why we loved it - Glamorous setting with perfectly executed dishes. My mother tells me you can tell a great chef by the quality of the side of veggies, and these were fantastic.
Perfect for - People dining with fussy eaters given the number of conventional (but great) dishes on the menu. None of this fancy molecular shit.
