点评:The location of the restaurant couldn't be any better for a sea view, and we couldn't resist booking a table by the window to enjoy a lobster thermidor as a holiday treat. Unfortunately the experience left us feeling a bit disappointed and underwhelmed and questioning if it was worth the money at all.
Firstly, the 00s rnb playing loudly from the bar ruined the potential ambience. Hearing "shorty got low low low" whilst I was trying to enjoy my very pricey meal was a bit off putting.
The lobster was advertised as 'thermidor' but the lobser meat was still intact and stuck to the shell and there was just a bit of sauce poured on top. Not the thermidor we're used to enjoying.
No one even bothered to come to ask us if our meal was ok, and by the time anyone walked past and took any notice of us we'd already finished.
To say we spent almost £100 on a 1 course meal, we had expected something a little more polished and with a little more finesse in general. We'd hoped to come away wanting to write a sparkling review- this restaurant has real potential to be amazing but it all just fell a little short of wonderful.
In our opinion we think the music should be something softer and lighter as background music (even a bit of smooth chill would do), staff need to be more attentive, (especially when customers have ordered the most expensive thing on the menu), and to improve the dish you should use freshly grated parmesan or gruyere cheese on the thermidor (not packaged pregrated cheese like we had) and prepare it how it's meant to be prepared. It wasn't horrible my any means, but there wasn't anything extra special about it unfortunately and we will be finding somewhere else to get lobster next time we visit the coast.
翻译:这家餐厅的位置堪称绝佳,可以欣赏到美丽的海景。我们忍不住预订了靠窗的座位,打算把龙虾焗蛋当作节日大餐来享用。可惜的是,这次体验让我们有些失望,甚至觉得这笔钱花得并不值得。
首先,酒吧里大声播放着21世纪初的R&B音乐,破坏了原本应有的氛围。当我正试图尽情享受这顿价格不菲的晚餐时,耳边却响起了“Shorty got low low low”这样的歌词,实在让人扫兴。这道龙虾菜被宣传为“龙虾热米多尔”,但实际上龙虾肉仍完整地粘在壳上,上面只淋了少许酱汁。这可不是我们常吃的那种热米多尔龙虾。
甚至没人过来询问我们的餐点是否合口味;等有人路过并注意到我们时,我们已经吃完了。
我们花了近100英镑只买了一道菜,原本期望能享受到更精致、更讲究一些的料理才对。我们原本期望能写下一篇溢美之词的评论——这家餐厅确实有潜力变得出色,但最终还是稍欠完美。
在我们看来,背景音乐应该更柔和、更轻快一些(哪怕只是些舒缓的轻音乐也行);服务人员也需要更加细心周到(尤其是当顾客点选了菜单上最贵的菜品时)。为了提升这道菜的口感,你应该在法式焗龙虾上撒上新鲜磨碎的帕尔马干酪或格鲁耶尔奶酪(千万别用那种预先磨碎好的包装奶酪,就像我们这次用的那样),并按照正确的做法来烹制。这道菜绝对不算难吃,但遗憾的是也没什么特别出彩之处。下次我们再去海边时,打算换一家店来购买龙虾了。
