It's not just a meal. It was an experience! When I heard about Goughs on Gough serving british food, I honestly was not interested as I didnt have a good impression of British food....always thought they lacked finesse and not too interesting.

It's not just a meal. It was an experience! When I heard about Goughs on Gough serving british food, I honestly was not interested as I didnt have a good impression of British food....always thought they lacked finesse and not too interesting. And I realize I was completely WRONG! i had the degustation tasting menu. each course is a surprise and it is like going on a mysterious journey! the starter was very delicate, beautifully plated, my favourite is the one with potato (i never liked eating potato!). the avocado with corn dish is light and interesting. Dashi Custard is by far my favourite course, love the uni and the whole dish is so balanced. Wagyu steak was  perfectly cooked and juicy, and the size is just right. AND the dessert is my favourite part, I had the Nordic Milk/ Yoghurt dish (dont' remember the name), it comes with some crunchy bits and the whole dish is light and ends the meal perfectly.  The only thing which I think would be nice is serving the Ruinart champagne, which is my favourite champagne! however they do serve Billecart Salmon which is great as well. Even the British sparkling wine they carry is very impressive and reasonably priced.

Re their service - it is definitely top notch! from making reservation, arriving there, dining and leaving the restaurant, every single detail were taken care of. Jonathan and Francois had been taking care of us very well. We never had to wait for them to come to us if we have any requests - they just knew and already brought what we wanted! I look forward to going to Gough's on Gough again to try their new menu! it never disappoints!
