BE CAREFUL WHILE EATING!!! - You might find pieces of plastic in your food!
As the title suggests, I had a piece of plastic that I nearly ate in the dessert made with sea buckthorn berry (the orange one in the photos below). Unfortunately during the shock of the moment, I forgot to take any photos/videos of this. Instead, reported this to the female blonde Swedish server (cannot recall her name). Sadly, the only thing this server did was to say sorry and to bring me a new dessert. I was totally shocked that something like this could happen in a 3-star Michelin rated restaurant. What's worse was the lack of a genuine reaction of guilt or remorse and the lack of any compensation for this extremely negative experience. Even in a very casual, neighbourhood restaurant, plastic in the food would be a major concern, let alone in an establishment like this.
Apart from the above incident, our food experience was not up to the potential standards of 3-star Michelin rated restaurant. As another reviewer mentioned, it was not possible to properly taste the actual food ingredient as these ingredients were usually showered in excess amounts of spices and fatty sauce. We had to drinks lots of water to relieve ourselves from the fatty, oily taste in our mouths. Indeed, some of the our favourite food was actually the appetizers served in the Living Room area as these were mostly plain and didn't include any extreme amounts of spice or sauce.
On the positive side, the service and atmosphere were excellent. There were interesting choices such as the music and the playlist (Seven Nation Army!), which are quite different from what you would experience at similar restaurants.
However, one thing that bothered us quite a bit was how some of the servers saw themselves and this restaurant. We kept hearing phrases such as "at this level of dining" or "when you are this level", etc. This came across as arrogant unfortunately. Specifically, the male, long haired Swedish server with glasses had this superiority attitude unfortunately (do not recall his name).
So overall, a quite disappointing 3-star Michelin rating experience from our side.
