Anyone been to Heston's Dinner?

[MrMarkyMark]

Great food. None of the experimental stuff.
Service was good - not too ponsy like some resturants but quite stuffy as you would expect.
The meatfruit was nice.

I heard that was the best bit of it all.

I thought we might as well take the opportunity to do something nice as we pass through London on the home from my mum's funeral.

When my mother passed away I didn't feel like eating. Enjoy!

More stars the restaurants have, bigger are the plates and portions smaller with a fancy dollop of something

Absolutely. Any mention of the dreaded word "Michelin" is enough for me to avoid a place!

From TripAdviser (restaurant rated low, 1 out of 5)..
Summary: Average food, high prices, rushed service to get you in-out as quickly as possible ("what's the cattle count tonight?")

"a bout of food poisoning that followed. Both my friend and I suffered from it"
"Would recommend avoiding this restaurant on the basis of poor food hygiene."
"The food is okay, but no more than that."
"I left feeling I had been duped by the hype."
"For my main I ordered steak, which I found very average"
"Service: rushed"
"the scallops weren't very good."
"we ended up feeling rushed so that they could recycle tables"
"I did not find the food spectacular"

I've never found anywhere that doesn't have a review like that. I like that TA lets you see someone's review history so you can see if all they do is whine.

It's also amusing that they 'know' the restaurant is where they got food poisoning. Not the kebab they had the night before, etc.

DP: you didn't eat for 3 weeks after she died? Seems a bit silly.

For lunch it sounds like you get as long as you want (until 5pm anyway)

No help whatsoever without a review

But the Travelodge at the services is a handy place to stay for contracting out west. Basic Travelodge rooms but at £21/night, it's great value!
