The restaurant is still open and everyone is taking further cautionary measures: masks and extra distance between tables. All these would not affect the service level and experiences. It was at least 70-80% full, not really bad. They only offer set therefore we ordered the 5-courses menu. 7 is simply too much for us. The chef was kind enough to switch prawn into fish for my friend who cannot eat shell fish; and beef/chicken into fish for me...actually, quite flexible. I could not help wonder - w
It was at least 70-80% full, not really bad. They only offer set therefore we ordered the 5-courses menu. 7 is simply too much for us. The chef was kind enough to switch prawn into fish for my friend who cannot eat shell fish; and beef/chicken into fish for me...actually, quite flexible. I could not help wonder - would they design even a new menu if I said no to every dish on the menu.
Bread was really nice and warm. I really loved the sourdough: the crispy outside and the chewy inside, warmed up, slightly sour, and together with the champagne flavored butter...everything you can ask for with a piece of sourdough all got together perfectly.
The amuse bouche was ok; then came the first dish with Tuna, marinated in vinegar. Salty, very strong flavor, this was our general feeling. The taste was very strong already with vinegar; I was not sure how much additional salt/flavoring was inside. Anyway, we had to drink water...and cannot taste anything else other than the strong vinegar/salt flavoring.
Second was prawn for me...again, very strong taste, creamy...and salty...same for the rest of the dishes. The main course with cod fish for - a kind of fish that indeed needs strong flavoring. I guess I just got a chef who really loves strong taste...loves all flavoring. It was lucky that I brought a bottle of Napa wine (yea...I know...but I just wanted to drink this bottle that night) to go with all these strong flavorings. I eat light? No, not at all. I like spicy Sichuan food from China. Last, dessert cart. Nice that they allow me to bring back a few pieces.
In general, this was an ok experience. They tried their best during a difficult period of time...
