Richard Corrigan at Lindsay House review by riccardo
all excited to eat at this famous and charismatic chef's restaurant. It was a disappointment thorughouth the dinner.
Food first: chose the tasting menu as these supposedly highlight the culinary vision, techniques and skills of the kitchen. Out of seven dishes none passed the most essential test, that sense of disappointment that unfortunately you are eating the last mouthful of the dish.
Did not care that I finished and were eager to move on to the following dish only to be further disappointed.
risotto was undercooked (happens too often). The fish was passable. the pheasent was very good, juicy, gamey but you can nothing that a good tuscan trattoria in siena cannot prepare. The rest...i forgotten.
another fundamental mistake is that they dished froi grois twice. the amuse bouche and the starter. even the french waited admited belatedly that it was too much.
service, well i had better at girafee restaurants! slow, slow, yes courteous, but slow. they needed prompting for the aperetif.
after spending more than 100 pounds per person you should feel contented, fulifilled and wallowing in how good life is..
not with this place.
