Wow...where
should
I
begin?
The
tasting
menu
was
a
fantastic
dining
experience...worthy
of
the
celebration
of
our
anniversary
for
sure.
The
dishes
crescendoed
in
their
excellence...each
seemingly
better
than
the
last,
despite
the
early
courses
being
wonderful
in
their
own
right.
Each
was
a
perfectly
balanced
creation,
mixing
flavors
and
textures
to
perfection.
To
mention
a
few
specifics
(see
the
photos
below,
to
see
how
each
dish
was
presented)
the
hake
was
simple
but
overwhelmingly
delicious
when
combined
with
the
smoked
roe
and
butter
sauce...just
fantastic.
The
lamb
was
probably
my
personal
favorite,
with
the
overlapping
flavours
of
the
different
cuts
of
lamb,
carrot
and
onion
working
together
soooo
well.
The
execution
continued
into
the
desserts...especially
the
chocolate,
miso,
sesame
creation...mindblowingly
good.
Every
course,
while
a
perfect
combination
taste-wise,
was
also
creatively
built
and
presented...and
the
result
was
definitely
worth
the
effort
in
the
kitchen.
We
also
had
the
paired
wines,
all
of
which
had
clearly
been
painstakingly
thought
through
and
further
enhanced
dishes
served.
Of
special
note
was
the
Theodora
from
Austria
which,
which
would
not
have
been
our
first
choice
for
drinking
on
its
own,
was
perfectly
complimented
with
Confit
kohlrabi.
Full
credit
for
the
team
for
getting
the
wine
pairings
right...this
was
as
good
as
it
gets.
The
service
was
flawless.
The
venue
small
but,
as
a
result,
kind
of
intimate.
I
wouldn’t
hesitate
to
go
again
but
it
isn’t
cheap...so
it’ll
only
be
for
special
occasions.
The
easiest
5
star
review
I
have
given
in
ages.
