If
you
are
considering
booking
-
consider
again!
Yes,
the
theme
here
is
Belly
Dancing,
but
there’s
also
the
‘belly
feeding’
to
be
considered…
I
should
have
taken
the
clue
given
by
the
slender
figure
of
the
belly
dancer…
she
had
obviously
waited
to
be
fed
even
longer
than
we
had!
On
Friday,
my
group
of
15
arrived
for
7pm,
for
a
Christmas
get
together.
By
9.40
we
were
still
waiting
for
our
starters
to
arrive.
Belly
Dancing
was
a
welcome
distraction
but
several
members
had
to
leave
to
travel
home,
without
having
eaten
a
morsel.
I’m
afraid
hunger
and
frustration
ensued
and
fortunately
the
noise
level
in
the
restaurant
was
high,
which
saved
blushes
given
what
little
I
could
lip
read
of
comments
being
made
to
the
manager
:-)
Starters
arrived
sporadically,
as
was
the
case
with
the
mains
some
while
later.
Past
the
point
of
hunger,
lots
of
the
food
was
wasted.
Desserts
arrived
in
the
same
fashion
but
with
few
of
the
party
left
to
eat
them.
This
has
been,
in
a
previous
life,
a
well-run
and
great
party
venue.
Now
I
would
never
use
this
restaurant
again.
Even
the
surly
DJ
couldn’t
redeem
the
evening
with
some
good
old
Christmas
dance
floor
fillers,
choosing
to
snarl
at
requests
and
do
his
own
thing.
Appreciate
staffing
may
be
an
issue
but
if
you
can’t
offer
the
service
don’t
risk
your
reputation
by
biting
off
more
than
you
can
chew…….
We
were
offered
some
fashion
of
refund,
but
this
will
not
compensate
by
any
means
to
my
reputation
as
the
event
organiser
nor
for
a
ruined
evening
for
the
team
that
rarely
gets
the
opportunity
to
meet
together
socially.
Thanks
for
that
Askular.
Never
again
and
only
the
brave
and
pre-fed
should
entertain
this
venue.
