A freshly appointed cook

A freshly appointed cook, a fresh leadership team, and a fresh level of quality... Considering the superior quality prior to the pandemic, the term "new quality" now implies a decline in excellence. Eighteen diminutive portions of tasteless sushi/maki for a hefty 37 Euros. Not a single salad, no assortment of vegetables, no seaweed salad, absolutely nothing. Utterly disheartening and underwhelming. The 37 Euros paid seems to be for a sushi/maki platter that was shockingly void of any additional accompaniments. There was a noticeable absence of salads, whether it be a simple greens or a more complex seaweed type. No variety of vegetables were present either, making the meal seem even more incomplete. The disappointing experience was further amplified by the clear decline in quality. The new management and chef, who took over during the challenging Covid period, appear to have changed the standards. The once excellent quality of food has now been replaced with what they refer to as 'new quality'. However, this 'new quality' sadly fails to live up to its predecessor, leaning more towards a downgrade in food standards. Overall, this was a deeply unsatisfactory dining experience that left a lot to be desired.
