Would we go back? If we could, we would. Sadly, this restaurant is now closed. It'd been on my radar since before it opened, and finding out about the impending closure finally gave us the push to try it out. It also helped that the last theme was "Alice in her Wonderland", one of my favourites. The food lived up to the theme - playful and quirky, rich (in flavour) and certainly memorable. It was a delightful evening, and I only regret not discovering this curiosity a little sooner.
Time and date of visit: 6:00 pm Thursday 26 March 2015
