Given the name "high society" and the luxurious settings and decor, we would expect some above average food to be served. But it seems that perhaps our expectations might be too high.
Served on a bed of mash potato, the portion of this lamb shank is huge but the taste was lacking. If you were to compare this to the original photo in here, the mixed greens were clearly missing.It seems like the lamb and the sauce are two separate entities as there is only the gamey taste of the lamb. The sauce had no clear red wine taste too. This sets off a sign that the rest of the food might fall into bad shape.
And unexpectedly, the Norwegion Haddock in tempura batter and fries with air flown garden leaves (the main course which I ordered) is neither visually appealing or taste as fantastic as it sounds.The fries were totally unsalted and the tempura batter was not crispy and done in the Japanese style. The fillet itself had no taste or any fragrance of being fried. The tartar sauce was average and even though it did help me to finish with the fillet. I think there is no need to highlight anything about the salad that was "air flown".
German Knuckles
The skin is crispy but the meat seems relatively drier than those served at other local German Restaurants. Some commented that the sauerkraut was not sour enough. Once again, like the lamb shank and the fish, this pork has no distinct flavour on it's own.
Would be better if they can finetune their food by improving the quality to attract customers back . It needs to meet the expectations that it has set for itself.
