Is it super weird being there as a solo diner? I mean, you'd be with a family or group and it would probably mess up their day?
I like the look of the menu but I think I'll probably skip to due to being one person.
Thank you! I might give it a go then, I am looking to try the things I like the look of that the children could not cope with, so, maybe this will work!
Thank you for sharing your experience, that's great!I did it on my first solo trip. I sat with a couple and a family. Everyone was very nice. The family was chatty and having a good time. They ordered some cocktails and I joined in with them. We cheered on the chef and had a great meal. I had seen them later in the day in France and we got slushies together. I’m sure it’s hit or miss depending who you are sitting with, but I would give it a try.
I guess I'll be the only disenting voice here. I've eaten lots of solo meals, never had a problem except at Teppen Edo. I was seated next to a family, specifically the teenaged daughter. And since I was at the end of the table, she was my closest table-mate, and it's too loud to talk to anyone else. Unfortunately, any attempts I made to be friendly and ask her questions about her trip were met with monosyllabic grunts. It was obvious that she was miserable being there. At the end of the meal, I don't know which one of us was more anxious to leave. That's when I decided I'd rather eat alone, than wish I was.
Not exactly getting your response. At pretty much every other table service you are not sitting next to anyone if dining solo. It sounds like here the experience would have been the same if you didn't try talking with the teenager.
Am I missing something vs what you normally experience when going to lets say Le Cellier or California Grill?
