The Chairman’s Room - simply amazing My wife and I visited the Chairman’s Room upstairs in the Clermont last Saturday and it was simply amazing. This is basically a Michelin Star restaurant that no one has heard of. It seems primarily focused on beef which comes from the owner's farm. Let me tell you it’s well worth a try. A rich amuse Bouche was followed by addictive sweet warm bread, simple and light starters followed by the main event which was amazing! The service is great with professional staff who know their wine’s and gave us an excellent recommendation. 5 stars all the way.

Overall we had a pleasant Overall we had a pleasant experience. Decor and ambience was superb. A couple of things to note though, the overall wait for the starters and main was far too long, we didn’t get finished our mains until after 10:30pm. Luckily we were having cocktails so they were enjoyed while we waited. Mains were also on the colder side but very tasty all the same. At the end of the night we asked if it would be possible to get an Irish coffee and didn’t receive a great response, the waiter basically looked at us like we were total idiots, said she’d ask but it’s highly unlikely and threw her eyes to heaven as she walked away. A simple “I don’t think so but let me double check” and a smile would have been nice and wouldn’t have left a sour taste for us.

The meat is excellent If you want a safe place to get out of the house and feel normal again - this is right for that. In simple terms the are getting it right and seem very aware of peoples fears. Good job to the team there. I must say the meat is excellent. Worth the price and a nice place to sit. Will be back!
