With a limited prix fixe menu I was a little unsure of how that would be as I do’t eat meat.
My concern was completely unfounded. Every bite of our meals was outstanding. A true gourmet experience. The service was excellent. Our waitperson was attentive but not intrusive, as was the rest of the staff. The wines available in the wine pairing are all available by the glass with a few bottles available as well but a more limited selection than one would be used to.
The 7 salads were not greens based “salads”,
rather a mezze selection of vegetarian dips, several combining unusual combinations or the best versions of Moroccan or middle eastern offerings that you might have had before such as muhammara or lebneh or white bean served with a round chewy sumac dusted bread and a platter of endive, carrots and cauliflower for scooping.
We had the wagu beef which was a divine preparation and the branzino, perfectly prepared with a bevy of flavours and textures on the plate. It would take a master to produce a plates like these.
There is one outstanding dessert. A date cake which presented like an elevated toffee pudding in a delicately seasoned caramel sauce topped with a quenelle of buffalo milk (I think) ice cream.
We tried two non alcohol cocktails - the smokey pomegranate “Silk Road” was wonderful - again, a complex combination of flavours that worked. The other yuzu juice based offering was a little less appealing to us but still interesting.
The only drawback was the noise level which made it difficult for us and the waitstaff to hear each other.
In all we were very pleased that we went.
