the collins room - the berkeley

all the fuss about this restaurant is what got me hyped in the first place. someone's taste in food i trust recommended this place to me. this is a fancy place so put your fancy pants on and dress classy. the interiors are beautifully decorated with a modern touch to it. the service is quite good but for a fine dining restaurant i expect the waiters/waitress to write down my order not to memorise it. i'm going to be honest, although they didn't write the order down, everything i ordered was on the table but again for a fine dining restaurant i don't think this manner is acceptable. anyways, the staff is really hospitable and welcoming. the vibes are so professional and fancy.

appetisers
burrata: the burrata was tasty but not as lpm to be honest. it was tasty though, not bad at all! 4/5

beetroot salad: to me, i didn't like the salad much but it was good/acceptable 3/5

qinoa salad: the chef has made a unique touch to the classic salad. he has added of what seems like apple to it which added a much more sweeter anddeliciouselement to the salad. loved it 4.5/5

mains
angus burguer: the dish is basically 5 mini burgers served with french fries. the burgers were juicy and absolutely tasty. my taste buds couldn't resist the spectacular mouthwatering beef 5/5

pink sauce penne: this was not written on the menu but the staff agreed on doing one for my partner which opted for one since her last visit. anyways, the penne wasdeliciousand the sauce was not heavy at all. my partner said that she would come for more! 4.5/5

pizza margharitta: the pizza was good but to be honest i had much better at other pizzerias. 3.75/5!

beef fillet steak: i being a steak expert absolutely fell in love with this dish. i had requested it to be cooked "well done". the meat was soft, juicy, mouthwatering and dangerously scrumptious. it was served with what looks like mayonnaise added with some kind of herbs. loved the combination! 4.25/5!

drinks
berry berry: this is their signature drink which my partner as well as the staff suggested so i had to fight the urge of not ordering drinks for i am not a juice person. i'm going to be sincere in this review and i have to say that it didn't live to its reputation. i was half disappointed with this. the drink had a weird taste which wasn't my type maybe others would like it but not me. sorry :( 2.5/5!

to begin with, the place is immensely beautiful and the service is incredibly good. this place has some fusion ready to cook menu which was really enticing. from presentation to interiors this place focused on every detail. coming to food, we were disappointed. one of the sandwich was horrible and desserts were not asdeliciousas they seemed to be. they could do better.

i love this place for theirdeliciouslittle sandwiches and their cakes and cookies. this is a perfect spot to take your partner out for a date, and have a really fun time. the service was amazing, and after we were offered a refill of almost everything we ordered, we asked for the bill and it was presented to us in cute little take-away bags. it was an amazing experience and i would love to visit this place again.

it was alldelicious- once we finished a plate it was refilled with more and then when we could eat no more we were given the remainder to take home in a doggy bag. the waitress made sure arabella had a pink bag with her favourite delicacies in and was also given a princess wand as a gift much to her delight! she felt like it was her birthday.

the tea consists of your choice of any of the manydelicioustea choices (i went with the pear caramel, mmm), a plate of mini-finger sandwiches, and a dessert stand full of tiny desserts inspired by each of the designer's collection pieces. my favorite treats were the manolo blahnik pink polka dot cake with gianduja cream and the prada nougatine and beriolette mousse with geometric pattern, although i really did like everything on the stand (sweet tooth problems..). we also chowed down on some yummy finger sandwiches and scones with clot
