Yes been there a few times. Its fancy but average at best ... people like going there because its a status thing ....

Goddamit I never offered a review but here goes,

Starter:

Tomato variation:
Tomato prepared in various ways, lots of different flavours from smokey to sweet. 10/10 would eat all day

Salmon Sashimi with orange piece and beetroot foam sent to table. Delicious

Venison with wild mushroom and Cauliflower: Not as good as starter, found the garlic in one of the various sauces on the plate overpowered the rest a bit, although I'm not much of a foody so maybe I am missing something, 7/10

Berry sorbet sent to table, delicious

Coconut and pineapple dessert with lemongrass curd, amazing variation of coconut and pineapple, ranging from sweet to tangy. 10/10

Maybe some people do, I really enjoyed the food and I have definately been to more expensive restaurants, so don't know how it promotes "status"
