| - I really wanted to like this place. I was so excited. I watch chopped, I'm always down to try weird foods, and I've been wanting to try a tasting menu for a while. I ended up disappointed.
I forget how many courses we ordered, maybe 5 or 6 or 7. It doesn't really matter though, you order based on how many things you want to try not how hungry you are. I could have had 5 more courses and still been hungry. My group stopped at another restaurant earlier for drinks and appetizers, and I suggested that we go here for dinner.
There were some interesting ingredients incorporated into the courses including uni, sweetbreads, quail, and others but for me the flavors mostly fell flat. The only highlight of my meal was the dessert. I had been looking forward to a nice creme brulee from the moment I walked through the door and smelled the burnt sugar. Alas, someone else at my table got the creme brulee, and not I. Still, the desert I got was quite good.
Unfortunately, the dessert didn't make up for the rest of the meal. I get that you're paying for an experience here (you sure aren't paying for quantity), which was pretty cool in theory. I just wish the food tasted better...
