Exceptional overall. VERY pricey. Felt a bit rushed but it was Christmas Eve and we were a little late. Still… Love the sommelier! Emperors cut was delicious. Cooked perfectly. Enough for a table of 5. Caviar service pretty good but stingy with the blinis. Brussels sprouts with gochujang, DELICIOUS. Soy minionette for oysters- not my favorite. Broiled oysters, a sad miss. May make this an annual Christmas Eve event. It will take all year to save for it. But what fun!
