That bar menu looks pretty amazing - so many nice drinks.

Bizzare pricing - some spiirit bottles are a discount on 30 measures, some are a premium?

And £72 for a bottle of champagne or £90 for a Magnum is an interesting decision.

I'm never paying £90 for a choc-ice on a stick, never.

250 quid for a shot is probably about the right price...but save your money and have the Remy Martin LouisVIII, at onlt 135 quid a shot.

obviously in these recessionary times, the 115 quid saved from every glass could be put to better use.

Oh dear.

Oh dear oh dear.

Tap water should not be free in any restaurant or bar, and if they dont want to serve it thats their choice.
WTF gives you the right to dictate to someone how to run their business?
You chose to go there, they didnt force you.

I used to dream about having dinner with Paul Ho.

Now im not so sure!

what happened if i needed water to take some medicaton? Also i only have money for the food that i am gonna order

Why did you go to a restaurant like this if you only had enough to pay for the food you were ordering? Did you chose from the online menu?

Personally for the sake of good customer service and not wanting to piss people off i'd offer free tap water.

That said, a restaurant obviously has every right to serve whatever they want. Nothing saying tap water has to be on that menu.

Was the food any good Mr Ho?

no the food was turd it was redic spicy
 but i only went for lunch


I had alot better thai before. They also had alot of indian food there too, which i thought was abit strange.

The starter was bigger than the main course. lol

its abit over priced for some dishes. £8.50 for a dessert is abit ott


The restaurant looks really nice (4 mill refurb) Probs a better place to chill and drink rather than eat.

I heard they get alot of footballers and rich ppl that go there. It is also in a strange location as it is in the middle of no where.

So I'm guessing you don't recommend it? Was thinking I might try it if I'm ever around the area. If not for the food, may just go for some good whiskey/cognac.

Go to the toilet and use the toilet water, not the tap water because thats all you deserve!!

Food sounds good.

Their tap water is a bit ropey though.
