"24 of us had a great late lunch yesterday after our wine tasting event we had locally, we had organised with the restaurant a set of menu which included a selection of all the started for the table and then each guest chose their main and dessert! The weather was perfect and the atmosphere buzzing and was the perfect combination for a fantastic afternoon - Farouk was first class who was the main waiter who looked after us and was excellent and was very attentive and was on it! John the F&B manager was also great who helped plan and book the event for a large booking! Thanks CT for a great large group lunch everyone left very full and well oiled 😍🤪🤪"
