We’ve been told that this restaurant is as good as any Michelin Starred establishment. So they win on the ambience/style stakes. The food sounds and tastes superb, with dishes like ‘Duo of rabbit with haricot bean puree, truffle & white beer sauce’ and at £19.95 it’s not too expensive. We know it’s small but we’re waiting…
