Gordon Ramsay

Well we can now say that we have enjoyed a very fine dining experience. Exactly a month ago, Phoebe jumped on the phone early in the morning and waited patiently to get us a table at Gordon Ramsay at Royal Hospital Road (you know the famous chef guy's epinomous restaurant).


We could only get a 6.30 sitting, so we turned up and straight away the service is exceptional. At least 5 people pounced on us, and volunteered to do almost everything for us (in all seriousness I thought at one point, one of them was following me to the bathroom). We chose to eat from the set "Prestige Menu" which had 7 courses of exquisite quality. Personally my favourite was the lobster tortellini - mouth watering stuff! Interlaced into these 7 courses were actually about 4 other mini courses - we were stuffed!

At the end of the night came the bill - lets just say it was about the equivalent of the GNP of a small island nation. But we would do it all again!
