I have made the booking like one or two months ahead - just long time ago. And the place is really quite small no wonder why it's easily full but it's kinda worth the wait.

The starter is an eggplant dish which is very flavorful and rich. But it arrives slightly too soon as our wine has not even arrived and poured and the food already in front of us. Think the serving time could be handled better.
The main course I ordered is the pork tenderloin - it's quite tender and the right texture but I was hoping that the taste of the meat could be a bit stronger - not meaning the way it's prepared but the meat quality. And the 2 seemingly small pieces actually are very filling.
We wrapped up the meal with a chocolate cake in which hot chocolate sauce poured over the super cold chocolate plate on top of the vanilla ice cream created a special visual effect and ends the meal in an entertaining way.
Overall, the food is great, the place's quite noisy and warm - think that is the cons we have to put up when it's not being served in the environment of 5 star hotel. It's understandable!
