Review of The Fat Duck "Gastronomic Rest...

Managed to stumble across a free time slot 2 weeks...

Managed to stumble across a free time slot 2 weeks prior to a very expensive lunch! Enthusiastic staff, took very good care of our dietary restrictions (celiac disease), I specifically asked if the kitchen could use lactose free milk instead soya products as replacements and they were fine with that. The gluten free bread was impeccable, best gluten free bread I've ever tasted, and I do go around London digging for gluten free bakeries!

The menu was incredibly fun, from the very start. They do ask you a bunch of questions before, if you can eat this or that sort of seafood/ nuts etc. I was rather disappointed that the mentioned octopus and snail did not show up on my plate, thus the 4 stars. I also wish the 325 pp that I paid upfront included all service charges as the final bill does come in hefty, 840 pounds for 2 people with a glass of wine and juice each, and a 13 course meal over 4.5 hours.
