R: I knew someone would say something like this. So you have a point there! I actually tasted the pannacotta by itself and I like pannacotta, so even if I didn’t like the ingredients on top, it shouldn’t affect the overall dessert taste. And another thing is, although I don’t like one or more of the ingredients, it doesn’t mean I will not like the whole thing. For example, those fruit buns have lots of orange rind in them and I think the buns are quite nice.
So I’m always open to try new things even if I don’t like some of the ingredients =) Hope that answers your question!

do you really think it is fair to critique dishes when you freely admit that you do not the main ingredients? This seems a little strange to me

I didn’t use the flash for the first couple of dishes, but then it got too dark not to.

Tried to limit one photo per dish haha that was hard.

True Lorraine… That’s actually another reason why I don’t use flash as I don’t want to bother others with a sudden *FLASH* out of nowhere…!
That’s the best we could do with our photos without flash!

When we used our flash they asked us not to in case it bothered other diners. Normally the camera is ok even in low light but Rise is daaaark! We struggled with getting the photos.

Suze: that’s strange…! Did you use flash? I don’t use flash for any of my photos so half the time they don’t know we’re taking photos. Personally, I think it should be ok to take photos. After all, we are paying for the experience!

Suze : That’s not the first time I have heard that happening, maybe they are scared people will steal their ideas or something heh

V : Hmm interesting, these Sydney Jap chefs sure like to move around. The head chef of Ocean Room use to be from Rise I think.
