We looked forward to a delicious truffle infused lunch but were bitterly disappointed. Food is massively over priced for what is on offer.
The venison with truffle mash: the venison was ok but not freshly cooked. But then the mash- it was clearly taken out of the fridge and reheated. Dry, solid and could be picked up with a fork in its entirety! This is unacceptable at $48! The waitress admitted that it was pre-prepared and simply retreated from the fridge, and without any apology we got a I ll let the chef know . Not good enough.
The tasting plate had similar issues - the mushrooms came straight from the can, so did the roasted capsicum, apparently.
Needless to say that they happily took our money and didn t offer a discount due to the sub-standard food presented.
