Much
as
I
like
to
encourage
education,
after
last
night's
dinner
at
Le
Berceau
des
Sens,
I
would
only
recommend
it
if
your
child
was
a
student
there.
First,
once
we
got
to
the
EHL
building,
there
was
very
little
signage
for
the
restaurant
was
very
difficult
to
find
until
someone
took
pity
on
us
and
guided
us
there.
(Hint:
it's
on
the
3rd
floor,
good
luck
finding
the
right
elevator.)
Once
there,
it
was
hugely
disappointing,
especially
given
the
Michelin
and
Gault
Millau
accolades.
Nice
and
eager
to
do
the
correct
thing
as
the
students
were,
the
service
was
just
terrible,
and
the
apprentice
staff
were
clearly
very
poorly
managed.
Once
seated,
it
took
at
least
20
minutes
to
get
a
menu;
the
sommelière-in-training
kept
forgetting
which
wine
we
ordered.
Our
entrees
arrived
nearly
an
hour
after
we
sat
down.
On
finding
that
a
server
had
given
us
the
wrong
tableware
for
the
dishes,
they
whisked
it
away
and
we
could
see
several
conferring
for
10
minutes
to
figure
out
which
we
were
to
have.
After
the
entree,
the
main
dishes
took
another
45
minutes,
despite
our
asking
several
students
and
finally
the
man
who
seemed
to
be
the
manager
what
the
problem
was.
No
one
spontaneously
checked
in
with
us
about
the
long
delays.
There
was
a
constant
crowd
of
servers
walking
to
and
fro,
but
with
little
productivity
to
show
for
it.
The
food,
once
it
came,
was
visually
appealing,
but
the
flavor
mediocre.
(I've
never
seen
dry
foie
gras
before,
I
don't
even
know
how
that's
possible.)
It
really
seemed
as
though
no
one
had
bothered
with
practice
sessions
for
these
young
people
before
throwing
them
into
the
dining
room.
It
looked
as
though
they
were
learning
on
the
spot.
Not
only
did
we
end
up
feeling
we
were
the
lab
rats,
but
had
to
pay
a
lot
for
the
experience.
I'm
really
sorry
to
dump
in
the
students,
I
think
the
blame
goes
to
the
teachers/managers.
It
was
quite
a
waste
of
time
and
money.
