his is literally food on the rocks. Sizzling on volcanic rock heated to 400 degrees, your prawns cook in exactly two minutes before your disbelieving eyes. Rubs and dips are offered for you to happily play chef with your meal—until it’s past midnight and the staff politely requests you to come again another time. Apart from its USP—food cooked with minimal oil on stone slabs, heated for over six hours in advance—the two-tier restaurant, with a lounge bar and wine and dessert counters at the lower tier, and restaurants above, has much else to offer: great music, pleasant decor, and service that’s so good that it’s almost obsessive. The menu here changes frequently, so you may not get to try my excellent spinach and roast garlic soup, grilled scallops with bok choy, celery and lobster cream; or the brilliant soft Camembert cheese baked with orange and soya sauce. But not to worry, whatever you get will probably be very good.
