I visited Mere with a date for dinner on Saturday 7th April. I cannot rave about this wonderful place enough. Upon entry, I noticed the reception and cocktail lounge were spotless. Perfectly lit and stylishly furnished. We were so pleasantly greeted by the host who genuinely enquired about our day and led us to our perfectly placed table in the restaurant downstairs. The ambience and decor there was also impeccable and the staff were attentive but not in any way smothering. Food - where do I begin. Lovely bread and canapés were provided. The charming sommelier gave us a perfect wine recommendation. We had the pumpkin starter and stuffed cabbage main. OMG these were so tasty and served like artwork on a plate. Especially as this tends to be harder to achieve with vegetarian dishes. It surpassed expectations, one of the most tastiest experiences I’ve had. To top the night off, the wonderful Monica Galetti herself came out to have a brief chat with us. Besides being starstruck (I’m a super masterchef fan) and the girl-crush I’ve just developed (she complimented my blue dress :) ) Monica is such a warm, engaging person and obviously so passionate about her food & restaurant. I cannot fault my visit and would definitely recommend others to visit. I hope to be back soon. Thank you Monica, David and team!
