If you feel angelic, you will be directed upstairs. If you are in the mood to do something diabolical, it is off to the cellars for you.
What better way than this to welcome the New Year. The restaurant has a quirky pricing system – the cost of the main course determines the price of the entire meal. This makes the restaurant amazingly affordable. Indulge your senses by sinking yourself in the restaurant’s creative cuisine.
