I've been here a handful of times, and while I've never gotten bad food, I've always been a little disappointed. I will say that the open air seating is a plus, especially on a nice day like yesterday, but a lot of places in the area have that plus.Fish pie: this was my first fish pie, so I don't have much to compare it with.

Fish pie: this was my first fish pie, so I don't have much to compare it with. It had 2 prawns, a mussel, and some tuna in it. I think the menu said there were scallops, but I didn't find any. Mostly it was fine, nothing really stood out, although I thought the carrots and turnips (?) in the pie were undercooked and a little crunchy. B-
Salad: The pie came with a house salad. It was pretty good: light on the dressing, a little bit of pepper, crunchy and fresh lettuce. It had a few grape tomato slices that were hard as rocks, but it is the dead of winter, and you can't really be blamed for poor quality tomatoes. A
Brussels sprouts: Pairing them with bacon was a good idea. Bitter green vegetables and salty fat bacon. Not a huge Brussels sprouts fan, but these were great for what they were. A
I was sick, so I didn't eat off my wife's plate (she got the full English breakfast). I have a few things to say about it though. First, the server clearly had no idea what "over hard" meant. When my wife ordered her eggs "over hard" she was asked to repeat it, the server listened with a blank stare, and then left-- and the eggs came over easy. It's alright not to know... but you can always ask.
Second, my wife reported that the breakfast seemed a little too 'fancy' and not like the big pile of sausage, bacon, eggs, etc. it should be. I'll add to that point and say that one time before I was disappointed in the burger here because it was overly fancy (cumin seeds in the patty!) when I just wanted a straight burger.
Anyway, she gives the breakfast a B.
Altogether, I don't think this place is bad, it just doesn't make me eager to come back again any time soon. B
題外話/補充資料:
With 2 beers the meal cost us about $450, so not cheap.
