Today, the lunch special contained a lobster soup. But, I could only finish about 5 spoonfuls. It was far too overpowering: Certainly in lobster (taste, smell) but also seemed a bit too salty. The pasta was well done, though. It was properly cooked (al dante), and the sauce was pleasant and creamy. What also impressed me is that the meat bits in the sauce were free from fat. Too often many restaurants do not separate the fat - meaning that I will (not keen on clogging my arteries unnecessarily).

Tea was a bit of a disappointment because of the 'plastic stick'. This plastic stick is for children to play and prod the lemon slices; but it is not useful to do much else! As a result the flavour of the lemon slices did not get released into the tea. Neither can you try to pierce the slices as they will 'hold onto' the stick and you will have a messy tug of war on your hands. Really poor design that I have not experienced anywhere else. So, tea not finished because it was bland without lemons
and bland enough that the sugar syrup could not make it any more palatable.
Other Info. :
Likely the (if not one of the) cheapest lunch special on that level.
