    Hi all.
    A couple of things. Firstly, apologies for the lighting in this video. We did try to get a better table but this is what we were given and as it was busy, we couldn't change it.
    I know a couple of you want less breakfast reviews so this will be the last one for the forseeable future and I'm back on my travels this week outside of London so looking forward to it.
    As always, thank you for watching.

    What I really like about you Gary is that you eat all sorts of foods from really expensive to really cheap (and everything inbetween), but you judge them all fairly. You're not swayed by price, prestige, or celebrity chefs, you simply judge the food based on what it tastes like. I really like that.

    Even though I was a butcher for around 10 years, that's one thing I've never tried, bone marrow on toast, or on anything else for that matter, if I ever see it on a menu, I'd better give it ago! Everything looked well cooked and inviting, especially the bacon chop and those beans, cooked with a pigs trotter, that was my dear old Nan's favourite treat, gnawing on a pigs trotter for her tea, while watching the wrestling on a Saturday afternoon, lol!

    I think the portion size looked ok - given the size of the bacon chop compared to a couple of rashers, and the rich indulgence of the beans and bone marrow, one sausage and one piece of black pudding seems about right! I liked that there were good portions of tomato and mushroom too!
    It is expensive, but given the location, the class of the restaurant and staff, and the superb quality of every component, I think it looks decent value for an occasion!
    Think I'd be scoring higher than 8/10, but at least you've got me wanting to try it for myself!

      @davidhandley9007 8 місяців тому

      @@siturl5834 whilst energy prices are high, and rent is dependant on the deal you have with the landlord (alot of commercial rents are quite reasonable, as there are more properties available than businesses wanting them), I agree those are a contributing factor to determining prices, but £50 for a breakfast for two is not reasonable and not value for money. As people have mentioned, you can do a weekly shop for that, I feed my family for a while week with fresh food (all fresh meat and veg) for less than that. For the majority of people, those prices are out of reach, but not only that, most people can't understand the justification of those prices, which seems more than a tad expensive.

    Good, interesting review, subjective as well which is what we like to hear from a reviewer. Only issue I would have with the price besides the portions is the 12.5% service charge. Staying at the Duke of Marlborough Hotel in Woodstock recently I asked for the charge to be taken off the bill, to which the female supervisor objected & loudly began an argument. Out of embarrassment I relented but walked out fuming, vowing never to pay a service charge again!!

    Hi there Gaz. As always top video. As I watched ,I was thinking about the pork ingredients. Another dish l enjoy cooking is a decent size pork joint. Traditionaly it's with apple sauce. But I tweak abit of the prep.I slice the joint, making downward cavities, and then I put garlic and fresh slices of Cox apples into the joint. Then in the oven for at least three hours on a low heat. The best bit is, the smell and the anticipation of getting stuck in!!!!😂😅🎉

    Now that the tourists are back in London, this is a great option for them, the Wolseley always used to be the best Breakfast in Mayfair, but since Corbin and King are no longer involved standards have dropped massively.

They have w choice of 3 different Irish stews and you can have coffee with Baileys cresm. I think it would be your type of place. You also need to go to Bean Hive, if you want to try the traditional Irish breakfast or Ulster Fry with generous portions.

It's a fine dining steak house with awards and top Ingredients hence the price. Not a spoons pushing quantity at terrible quality. Its just hard watching this one when the negative is a sausage and beans. But when eating it your amazed, that's what their aim is, and they've achieved it, price is justified👌
