The best restaurants serving British food in Stanton St Edmundsbury East of England

For me this meal did not ring right, like a bell with a small crack in it. My mother and I were not wanting typical pub food today but something different, special. Somehow despite local ingredients, the flavours of the central parts of the meal did not really jump off the plate and were sometimes shaded by the other sauces etc. It was expensive for what it was and the food somewhat incongruent for a Wednesday lunch. If brave the restaurant could ditch the pretension associated with Michelin association and go back to basics. Smears of sauces do not justify a two course meal for two: £92 , 40 minutes of dining, where to be honest I have better in a French university restaurant for a fraction of the price, with a better atmosphere. I would have liked to give feed back at the time but it was not sought.
