Compliment
shopaholic (13-09-2007)
I thought I had found a bit of a gem when I got to the restaurant, tucked away at the end of the road in the middle of Kensington.
Everything looked promising...the outside was lovely, the decor inside was comfortable and elegant, staff seemed pleasant and efficient and the menus looked good....
Then things started to go a bit wrong; too many items were off the menu that night (bad night for the chef?); starters were very mixed...my ham terrine had lots of foie gras (which unfortunately I really do not care for) which had never been mentioned; the mushroom brioche was so full of salt it would have raised the alarm of a government official. Main courses were better, but not great. Good fish but appalling mash. Desert was good but the cheese plate was closer to an airline dish than an expensive London restaurant's concoction.
Not worth the price. Shame because it looked good.
