'...we enjoyed the excellent food that Saison presents'

'the ambience is still comforting and comfortable'.

' the first of the evening's surprises arrived -
a complimentary amuse-bouche of sweetcorn cream with a coconut foam'... [that was] ... 'sweet and fresh, like liquid popcorn. '

'...crispy skinned pork belly was a standout. It came with a distinctive nutmeg and orange puree and ginger reduction, and was the best he's ever had, he said...'

The herb-crusted cote de boeuf - 'rare and tender and delicious'.

'...baked snapper melted in the mouth.'

'A good maitre d' can make.... an excellent meal superb, and Bourvis did just that'.

'Saison is very, very good.'
