Having said that, by the sound of your post you are out of your depth so it might be better if you stick to Pizza Express from now on.

Think you might be right! At least I won't be left with the overarching taste of salty cuttlefish in my mouth <cue inuendo>

Lluís didnt mention this, are you sure you aren't confusing it with the refit?

Just been on the phone to El Bulli to make a reservation. They can fit us in September 2013 - how chuffed we are!

Lucky you, I thought they were closing down in the next 6 months.

They shut for winter.

They only take reservations for the next season on the day after they close for the current season.

Good luck with getting one...

I thought it was done by lottery these days?

So did I when I have contacted them I've been told to get back to them only at a certain time when they open in October they will then allocate the seats for that season.

As for the closing, Ferran Adria gave some hints in Restaurant magazine that he may be hanging up his apron.

Obviously they seem to have changed the way they do things and are staying open.

I missed the magazine article but it kind of confirms what Heston was telling me and the Mrs the other week. Basically, spanish molecular gastronomy is a busted flush and he expects the Fat Duck to reign supreme in 2010 once all the hoo-ha has died down about the dodgy prawns earlier in the year.

Maze is a bit spartan, and like all Ramsay establishments you run the risk of sitting next to obnoxious homosexual American bankers.

But the tasting menu is great, well it was last time I had it. Even Bobby Sands would have been tucking into it.
