    My family and I had a lovely Sunday sharing board! The food was delicious! Only thing we struggled with was that the sharing boards took up a lot of space on the table! That said we would definitely go back! 😊

    Everything was very good, we thought the menu was quite exotic, surprising as you would expect the menu to be more traditional. Had a enjoyable evening.
