I was pretty disappointed by the main restaurant food too. It wasn't badly prepared, necessarily, just, well, odd. At least the things I got. Strange flavors, not quite well assembled.
I admit that my standards are probably way too high. But yeah, I agree with Sim, something changed. A new chef?
I'm also not sure about this, but the bar services seemed either a bit overwhelmed, or just not focused, compared to past years. It's quite possible that we overwhelmed them a bit, or if it wasn't us, it might have been the wedding folks, who from the sound of it, got more that their fair share of booze. :)
The service was much worse overall this year. When we went to dinner there Fri night, the tuna was sent back for being very done instead of seared as advertised. I ordered the game, and the sausage was very good, but the ribs were just shy of burnt, and really dry and tough. Also, the chanetrelle dishes we had were disappointing. Lunch at the Black Rabbit bar was fine, but I agree that the food at the pub was just better. Actually, we didn't have a problem with the service there either...
Next year, we plan to eat off premise on Sat night... Thai or Vietnamese maybe.
