What an amazing experience!
You first step in to the restaurant where you view the menu and make your selections. You can either have a two course or three course meal. We decided on the entree, dessert and a drink. *There is an option to have a "surprise"dish instead of selecting it yourself. I would HIGHLY recommend this* We allowed our entree to be a surprise but chose our dessert and drink. You put away your belongings in a locker. You can not bring any light in!
You are then led in by your server into COMPLETE blackness. I have to admit, I have moderate claustrophobia and recurrent nightmares of being in enclosed spaces so I had a minor bout with anxiety initially. I wasn't sure I was going to make it! But you get use to it, and you start using your other senses.
Our surprise main dish was pork, turnip and tomato. It was AMAZING. It was also an incredible experience learning what it was we were eating as we picked it up, tasted it, felt it. (It wasn't until after that we were told what it was). The pork was so tender. For dessert we had the creme brûlée which was also delicious. We tried the Sangria and it was very different. It was ok but almost tasted watery to me. I would stick with a wine next time.
Our server Julia (I think) was amazing and so friendly. It was sad when the experience was over! Would highly recommend and would definitely come again.
Also, to the guy who spilt his beer all over himself from over yonder-- thanks for the comic relief haha!
