Jaan

We have eaten at Jaan twice now and have sampled both the Taster Menu and the A la Carte Menu. It was so good that I brought our President there the second time! The staff's attention to detail, the relaxed atmosphere and Simon's excellent cooking made it all a very special experience. The combination of unique flavours and textures (try the scallop and duck or the pork belly starters) is outstanding with beautiful presentation. Everything was served on special plates reflecting and highlighting the excellence of each dish. The portions are well balanced while remaining light enough to leave space for the dishy desserts. Particular favourites were the barramundi and the rabbit and lobster roulade while the apple medley dessert is to die for! The sommelier managed to complement the dishes beautifully with his wine recommendations and the complementary dessert wine was one of the highlights of our evening! Jaan is a hidden gem and we can't wait for the weather to cheer up so we can have an al fresco meal in the beautiful courtyard garden. We'll definitely be back!

Jaan was an absolutely brilliant experience, admittedly my boyfriend is a Chef there so we did receive an extra five mini courses and the 50% discount helped! But I seriously loved the food, it was experimental and delicious and beautifully presented. My lobster and rabbit roulade derserves a mention as one of the most origanal things I have ever eaten. My only criticism is that the restaurant lacked ambience.
