Another of our “you don't have to be posh” Michelin * lunches that my friends and I attempt to do 3/4 times a year. The food is top qulaity here, but portions are small and prices are steep.
We were located towards the back of the restaurant (it appears bigger with the mirrors and black) so unfortunately no witnessing of the cooks doing their thing. I found the high tables and chairs a tad dis-orientating at first, but the sublime execution of the foie gras burger soon makes you forget that – and remembber they are small so its got to be good.
The langoustine tail (yes, one) with the basil was again brilliant, but leaves you wanting more. I guess this is the idea – to leave you frustrated and begging for another mouthful.
Like I typed, very good, but not cheap.
