Hello. As I was so impressed with Café Rouge a few weeks ago, I decided to go back there to test their consistency. Yes, consistency. Again and again, I have been let down by many places. But I have a high hope. This is a national chain, surviving for so long, keep evolving since 1989, while their peers such as “Dome” disappearing (for those who remember!!). And of course, as a savvy critic (my new nickname), I got a 50% off main course voucher again, thank you VoucherCodes.co.uk! To test the true consistency, we went back to the same venue, Highgate.
Hooray, Poisson Frites for £6.50 (£13 full price, at the time of ordering, they did not know we will submit the voucher at the end, hehehe).
Quite frankly, I remember my disappointment at first bite. Overall it felt greasy. I am afraid this is all I can say, I am being honest here, because I have forgotten small details by now!
BTW, can somebody tell me, is anybody actually pay full billing price in Café Rouge?
I certainly will be back to try again, and to report straight away, with some sort of voucher firmly on my hand.
