"we visited bar soba edinburgh for the first time in a dae. we were really looking forward to the lighter and umbungo cocktails. they did not disappoint and were as good as we remembered. the menu, as it is the case today, was on a qr...code and included food. we are growing increasingly peckish (probably due to cocktails), so we ordered some snacks. when the waiter handed them over, he said very “snappily” if they want to eat, I have to move them down! our point was if you don’t want to eat up, why then make the complete menu available on the qr code?! next one of the party had recently had an operation back and occasionally it had to get up. again another employee came by and said when they got up they need to get their mask up. the party member did not walk around, did not leave the table and just stood exactly where her seat was and explained that they had recently returned an operation and was meant with a "not my problem". nice to point out that the bar was less than a meter away and they could stand at the bar without a mask. Finally, as we came to the end of our booking, we asked if we could extend to the end of our drinks we were told “no” we are really busy! we looked around, we at least counted empty tables. So we went on the road and drove our evening away. when we left our evening we noticed that bar soba was still empty! we appreciate living for the hospitality challenging and we are very happy to support it. we were polite, however, have not caused a problem and spend a lot of money (if any more spent, but due to the arrogance of the employees we took our business elsewhere). our consulting, offer additional employee trainings for understanding and adapting to customer needs in inclusive wise. sad, I think we need to miss in future our nostalgic cocktails."

"I usually associate the London Bridge area with the hordes that visit the food stalls on the weekend only but a visit to Borough Market one wet Saturday evening shows that the crowds haven't dissipated. My original plan of a visit to Brindisa is blown out the water (I'm far too hungry to wait for a table) and so we wander down to Feng Sushi. The interior is dark and atmospheric and looks warming on a cold winter's eve. There's a seasonal menu at play and while we've largely ordered from the main, we are tempted by the sesame tofu with mushroom sauce and it is fantastic. I would have appreciated some advice on how to eat it as we are confused by whether to use the sauce as a dip or a soup to soak the tofu in. The tofu is crunchy on the outside and firm on the inside and the sauce is more of a broth with mushrooms and mixed vegetables but nevertheless a tasty accompaniment. Our salmon sashimi is fresh, but does have some significant fatty stripes through it. It's a bit off putting. We've also got a mixed platter with salmon tuna sashimi, salmon tuna nigiri, mock duck in pancakes and vege tempura. Nothing out of the ordinary. We also had a soft shell crab roll, which again was only average. The crab was cold and clearly straight from the fridge and while it was assembled neatly, there was no aromatic flavours of the crab coming through. We ended the meal with a couple of scoops of ice cream chocolate with wasabi and black sesame. The wasabi overpowered the senses in the chocolate ice cream (as wasabi does) but the black sesame ice cream was sensational. Overall, I liked the food, but Feng Sushi commands a premium over the other sushi chains that I felt was undeserved. Itsu or Wasabi both do excellent and fresh sushi and sashimi at a lower price (if not quite the same ambience) and we left feeling a little unsatisfied. Perhaps I should have waited for my table of tapas after all."
