2024/01/12 Another Dinner at TJ
π 2024-01-12 01:01 in Ndining
It had been over 10 years since I last went to TJ, mostly because that last experience then was not good (over 4H for the dinner, and likely food poisoning, but that's hard to say for sure). Chez TJ does change chefs every few years, so it really depends when you go. This time around, it was a brand new chef who started just a few days earlier. The dinner was good, but not in line with the price they charged, which was closer to what 3 star restaurants charge, when they only had one star.
The service was good, food was pretty good, but I felt it was distasteful to add some silly health fee on the bill, and mandate a 20% tip. The restaurant was virtually empty on a friday night, which was also somewhat worrisome but maybe linked.

The drink selection was good, and if someone wanted to spend $500 on a very special wine pairing, that was available

I got a very interesting blueberry cider, it was very good

Nice dishes and still a fun evening:
