We were there for late lunch and chose a couple of cocktails for starters a Mango Daquari and the Deep Blue Sea Martini. The staff kindly brought us prawn crackers, the black sesame ones were very tasty.
The Mango Daquari was fantastic, the other not so.
We ordered the Lemongrass Spicy Chicken and plain rice. Lots of onion and not much fairly tough chicken without much lemongrass flavour or spiciness. Just passable but I wouldn't order it again.
We then got our deserts, creme brule coffee flavour and the pancotta. The consistency of the pancotta was just too stiff and the strawberry sauce overpowered the lemongrass. Once you had some pancotta on its own, the flavour was very delicate and very nice. Perhaps a mild lime sauce instead of the sweet strawberry would suit it better.
The coffee creme brule was a good consistency for a pancotta but too thick for creme brule, my wife enjoyed the flavour of the dish. Also caramelised sugar was a little too thick on top. Serving dish was inelegant and the serving size was way too large.
Nice atmosphere. Would I go again, probably for a mango daquari but that's all. Cost $385
