Me and my wife had a great experience at the chef's table last night. It has been over a year since we last visited since our son was born and we were so glad to see the food not only has maintained its high quality but in fact has best our last experience! Well done to Keita and his talented team behind the kitchen counter!

We ordered 3 dishes to start with but it took like 40mins to come out. Also the waiter served wrong dish and we waited like another 30mins. He didnt apologise or anything. The vibe, food and drinks were good! Will come back if better service is guaranteed.
