Behind Restaurant

Easy review. Just go. Magicians.

I've been fortunate enough to dine at a lot of really high end restaurants in my life and this was one of the best meals I've ever had. As one would expect from a Michelin starred restaurant, the quality of the ingredients and the plating was excellent. The wine pairing was very good as well. But lots of places get those things right. The true strength of this restaurant was the sauces. From a basil tarragon foam to a corriander lassi to riesling and mackerel consomme, these were some of the tastiest liquids I have ever experienced.

We had an incredible time at Behind with Andy, Jimmy and the crew. The tasting lunch menu with wine pairing was simply sublime from start to finish - all I can say is just go.

The 3 stars are for vibe, format and food presentation. Everyone in the restaurant starts at the same time with all the courses served at the same time, true fine dining setting. However, the food itself is not overwhelming for someone like me who grew up by the sea eating seafood every day. The cooking did not bring out the best of the ingredients. In their dishes you can no longer see the ingredients. While its normal for normal fine dining, I think the rule for seafood is different. The cooking focuses too much on cooking, and forgets about the basics of seafood. For fresh seafood, simply boiling or steaming would guarantee fantastic taste and texture. One way I judge a seafood dish is whether I would rather eat the plain boiled version. If all the labour doesnt enhance the taste, what is the point?
