I think it's time to find my way to a new, amazing restaurant. I think my last truly amazing eat was at Hibiscus (it was awarded its second star between us booking and eating) and that was 5 years ago! | ||

All in including a modest tip it came to £140 each (plus £12 in the bar for a house white and the fancy G&T).Thought of trying Fera? | ||

I havent, and think if I'm going to spend that much then there are probably 4 or 5 in front of it on my 'list' tbh. | ||

I had scallops with Parma ham and white pudding, followed by cod with crayfish and smoked haddock (chips and asparagus with parmesan on the side). https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-3Iow58WGkf8/VIosN1LLYJI/AAAAAAAABOw/p6jRgILaLO4/s800/PhotoGrid_1418339032259.jpg Interesting colours due to reflection of Christmas lights and using HDR to get ax decent low-light shot. | ||

I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | A while ago I "worked" as kitchen porter at a "supper club for supper clubbers" night, and consequently Arepa Arepa Arepa gave me two free tickets for their next night taking over Trove, in Stockport. That night was last night; I was sat with my guest (Louise, with whom I ate at the French) and three well-known food tweeters based within a mile of my house. There was a hot, sweet, boozy welcome drink, a starter of potato, tomato, arepas and chorizo, a tamal (plural tamales, a word I know better), a dessert of sweet cinnamon set custard and salt fried cheese balls. All tasty, interesting, and different. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-AilT4FNZ5Gs/VIv7dcSHndI/AAAAAAAABPA/od2uzBjscYM/s800/PhotoGrid_1418428160557.jpg Lovely night. The same five at my table will all be at Drunken Butcher tonight, which means cab-sharing, which means drink. Merry Christmas . | ||

Which saves on gratuity, anyway. Still a good meal, because a meal with your mates always is. | ||
