Riddle & Finns review by Graeme Savage
I visited this Restaurant recently for the second time, my first visit was excellent receiving very good food and service. I have to say that the difference between this and my most recent visit was remarkable; this time we received average food and poor service. We ordered oysters unfortunately they were in full roe, when I explained this to the waitress she seemed to glaze over and go into a pre recorded piece about seafood being seasonal I explained that I had been eating oysters for over 30 years and one would not expect them to be heavy with roe in late February. The oysters were taken away the flesh was put into different shells and brought back to the table!! It was clear that I was not going to get through the fact that this type of oyster is bad to eat, you certainly would not be served one like that in France. By this time the waitress and her Latin male colleague were fed up with me and avoided any eye contact, when I did manage to summon the courage to ask for more bread I was even more intimidated by the rolling of the waitresses eyes. All in all a poor experience plus when did freshwater crayfish become fruit de mer?
