Our experience at Showroom was outstanding. They clearly deserve their Michelin star - the food and wine pairing were excellent enough to deserve even more. Every one of the seven courses, three amuses gueules, and the sweet bites at the end were excellent: beautifully plated, with unusual flavour profiles that worked every time. The wine pairings were mainly of lesser known wines but of very high quality, also in many cases with unusual profiles but which worked very well with each course. We have very rarely had a dining experience like this where every course and pairing were great, but were never disappointed here. Perhaps the only element holding them back from more stars is the atmosphere. Multiple Michelin star restaurants are often fitted out with opulent decor and servers that are highly professional but a bit overly formal. However, for us, Showroom is better than that. The dining room has a simple, comfortable elegance, and our server/sommelier was professional, attentive, and highly personable. The result was a very relaxing, comfortable, and exciting dinner with many “wow” moments. The cost was significant, but well worth it. A pleasant element for us was that there is no menu so each course was a surprise. A nice touch was to give us a card listing all the courses and wine pairings after the meal.
