They'd only just opened, and I guess a few teething problems were to be expected. Hi rochellerochelle - yeah, I think it’s time I went back for a reprise.

Nothing amazing or new with the food but I found the quality of the produce excellent and it was great cooking. really good simple food well done. the service was great and friendly as well. maybe some of those things have changed?

It must so frustrate chefs to have their dishes f'd up whiney customers. Fancy ordering a dish and asking for <i>everything</i> to be removed (ie. no oil, no sauces and no spices) and just steamed. Grrr. The other ridiculous one we both heard the other day was the customer who wanted the carbonara without the cream, cheese or bacon. What the?!?<br/><br/>Food allergies aside, damn - if you come to a restaurant to sample their fare, then damn well sample it. If you want steamed fish because you are watching your weight etc., then just make it at home. What's the point otherwise? Hey EG :-) Thanks for reminding me about that particular diagreeable woman.

I would add that, for what you get, it was quite pricey. but then again, it was Acland St :) how about that disageeable woman on the next table, who couldn't have oil, spices, etc and was making unreasonable requests of the waiter? (who was quite gracious to her, mind). She reminded me of a skanky Jeanne Little. I must say, that the men's toilets were quite good :) it's small, but they did infuse a bit of style in there, with mood lighting and flower cuttings. I like a good loo.
