Malay-themed. We had three starters - Dancing Prawns and Chargrilled Satay Skewers. The Dancing Prawns were substantial portions and well done. However, my partner thought the Chargrilled Satay Skewers a bit heavy. For mains I had the Pappardelle Angus Ragu. This was another substantial dish, again perhaps a little heavy. Definitely substantial value for the big eater!

I am not actually vegan but my wife is and this was a fantastic option for her birthday. It's fine dining but relaxed and the staff are so well informed about all the choices on the menus. We had a lovely time and would certainly go back to see what other gastronomic masterpieces they come up with in future. It's not necessarily cheap as it's a set menu, but we had ten courses (if I counted correctly) of varying sizes and were extremely full by the end and I would say that it is very good value for the level of food and service provided. The brioche course was a particular highlight for me - as someone who doesn't live mushrooms it perhaps opened my eyes a little. Even Swede gets it's moment to shine.
