"Mid-life Korai-sis?"

A review of Saffron Brasserie by Julian Gold - Tuesday 12th of October 2004


Advertisements






It was my 40th birthday this weekend; a group of 13 of us went to the Saffron Brasserie. We had booked a table for 15, and when they saw that all the seats were not going to be taken, they removed 4. I reminded them twice that at least 2 more were coming, but they did not provide extra seating - one guest had to sit cramped at the end of the table. My wife then asked them if they could do anything special for my birthday - they said "No, can't you see how busy we are?". I mean, a free dessert or liqueur coffee wouldn't have hurt, would it? The food was very average - I had the Special, it was on the bland side and the lamb tikka was tough. The service was glacially slow. Finally, the staff never offered us coffee or desserts. Why they would cheat themselves out of the immediate or repeat business only they can know, but I suspect there are 13 people who will not return to or praise the Saffron Brasserie.
