Nope, not been, but I've been attracted to a visit for quite a while, as the "chefs table concept" of the restaurant is of appeal. Having just won a Michelin star its even more appealing.

Trouble is its nearly on the South coast so its a mini holiday type of destination for us, its that far away.

Anyone been who can post a report? perhaps if it gets the gastro juices flowing we may just bring that visit forward.

Here's something I wrote, not exactly representative as it was a one off night.

The stools are a bit of a pain, but the food should take your mind of them

Highly informative report Nick. You have covered all the historic stuff admirably, which saves me doing it on our visit.

Clearly a thumbs up for the food, but perhaps I too will give the veal tongue a miss if its still on the menu.

Looking good for a visit now, best do a bit of forward planning. :smile:

The tongue was served cut horizontally so it still looked like a tongue!

So now there are 2 things I'll never willingly eat again, that and andouillette

Andouillette has to be the vilest thing ever to get into my mouth!
