“Christmas Dinner- extreme disappointment”

★★★★☆

written by on 13/01/2022

After pre-ordering and paying around £60 per person (x10) in advance we were extremely disappointed in what we actually received which was a small cold Christmas dinner where all of the vegetables were all uncooked, we obviously complained as these vegetables were inedible and the manager expressed his concern saying "We have no excuse whatsoever and this should never of happened" we were not told how this could have occurred and we were left to draw our own conclusions. However, we assumed this may have been due to possible staff shortages due to sickness where temporary or untrained staff were used and the allotted food for that sitting had run out and we were given food that was being prepared for the second sittings because the meals that came out before ours looked huge and cooked in comparison!

This was not rectified at the time but the manager has offered us all a replacement evening on him during one of their venue entertainment nights which we are waiting for the forthcoming summary to be emailed.

I will then offer a follow up review to this.

To all the caviar lovers out there,

Indulge your senses and prepare for a luxurious journey of flavors and textures. With every delicate pearl, caviar bestows upon your palate a symphony of elegance that transcends ordinary gastronomic experiences.

Like rare gems harvested from the depths of the sea, caviar is a testament to nature's artistry. Each roe holds a story of time, care, and craftsmanship, nurtured patiently until it reaches perfection. The lustrous beads, glistening in shades of ebony, gold, and amber, beckon you to partake in their opulent allure.

As you succumb to the enchantment of caviar, let your taste buds dance with joy. Embrace the subtle, buttery notes that cascade effortlessly, leaving a lingering essence of the sea. The gentle pop of the eggs against your tongue is a symphony of sensations, evoking a sensory experience like no other.

Savor this delicacy, knowing that its opulence is a result of meticulous precision and unwavering dedication. Each tin encapsulates a moment of culinary bliss, a culmination of expertise and tradition. Let your passion for caviar guide you on a voyage of refinement and sophistication.

Whether you pair it with blinis and crème fraîche, serve it atop a freshly shucked oyster, or simply savor it on its own, let caviar elevate your gastronomic aspirations. Celebrate life's special moments with a touch of extravagance, as the pearls of the sea grace your table, leaving an indelible mark on your memory.

To all the connoisseurs of caviar, may your indulgences be abundant, your journeys through flavors extraordinary, and your appreciation for this exquisite delicacy forever unyielding.

Cheers to the timeless allure of caviar!
