Food very much in the tradition of NP. People on the floor really solid but perhaps lacking that flawless authenticity. All the little things clock-up and when you are paying premium perhaps it is ok to have some expectations. Nothing at all wrong with any of the people.

Lunch was very welcoming and warm. The taste of the food shows how much care and thought is put in the taste, all the way down to the presentation. Portions are very generous. We come from Vietnam so it was a new (but pleasant) culture-shock. Booking was easy to do and instructions were followed well. Service was very fast and suitable for anyone in need of a quick but tasty bite for a limited lunch hour.
