Gone downhill

“Gone downhill”

Written on: 23/02/2013 by Ashton100

When Strada 1st entered the scene a few years ago, as a chain they had much to be proud of. The food and service were excellent. In fact if i am not mistaken the restaurant was the brainchild of Richard Caring of the Ivy
Roll on 6 years and now owned by venture capitalists,much has changed and regretably for the worse

I have been working abroad for 18 months and on return,

Carafes of complimentary filtered water- gone
Real linen napkins- gone
Superlative thoughtful service-gone
Truly fresh ingredients - gone

Stradais now just another formula restaurant where the food is processed at a central factory kitchen,with strict portion contrrol and no flair or imagination to the food or service
Why do we have to put up with thiese constant rubbish chains run by bankers not restrateurs
