Le Champignon Sauvage (24-26 Suffolk Road, Cheltenham, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL50 2AQ) We found the service surly in an unpleasant way. The flavour combinations just don't work, for example chocolate with olives, the olives did not complement the chocolate and the cheese cake which tasted of burnt caramel and salt. Non of the six dinners (who have all been to many fine dinning establishments)liked these. When pointed out to the women who was front of house, she explained that the pudding were as “the chef intended” and implied it was our fault for not liking them. My lobster starter came on a bed of risotto which was far sweeter than any of the sweets. The poor french waitresses seem to be in fear of her which leads to a tense atmosphere. 0/10
