Sentiment analysis: Not the teenage OMG! but Ohhhh Mark Greenaway! Tingling and tantalised taste buds are now spoilt after my visit to No.12 Picardy Place. Having fell in love with some pork belly a few months ago, I was desperate to return. Small spanner almost in the works though - well several actually. Firstly Taste was flooded out, I missed Foodies as I was in the US and then third time unlucky - the news was that Mark was launching a new menu. I was determined to have pork belly cooked by the man himself before it disappeared so I reconfigured my schedule to include a visit pre, instead of post, work trip. What an experience - OMG. It was amazing and everything and more it should be. This is fine dining and everything is just perfect. Gorgeous location and fantastic service. As part of a twitter offer, we received a free glass of champagne, even though we were ordering off the Market Menu (3 courses, 20), it magically appeared at the table without being requested. Service was attentive without being obtrusive. And now for the food - sheer bliss! I'm gluten free and usually this can result in little unhappy faces throughout the meal as more disappears from the plate than appears on it. Not an issue here and dishes could be adapted to suit dietary requirements. Gluten free bread was provided - a gf brown and seeded version which was lovely and crispy (and its a nice touch so you feel less 'special needs' and more special). So to start: Ham Hock, with scallop and pea puree, apple meringues and edible flowers. Lovely. The main flavour of the ham hock came through, complimented but not over powered by the other flavours and the scallop was cooked to perfection. For mains, it had to be the Pork Belly with savoy cabbage, pomme puree, apple and toffee apple jus. It was to die for. Seriously. I was almost Meg Ryan in the sandwich shop in When Harry Met Sally. It was just THAT good. I am fat phobic when it comes to meat and I hate more fat than meat but this was a perfectly meaty piece of pork belly, with the crispiest crackling - not too salty but with a lovely light sweetness. 12 hours of sheer cooking artistry. It was divine and I was as happy as the piece of piggy on my plate probably would have been in the dirt. However, I came for 3 courses and I was having 3 courses. Being gluten free, I did worry that I couldn't have the salted caramel and peanut cheesecake with warmed chocolate sauce, but not at all. A modified version, minus the non gf base was provided (pistachios were instead of the base) and the dessert was simply divine - lots of lovely nutty sweetness and not so sweet it was sickly. Sheer bliss. I couldn't get enough of the warmed chocolate sauce and had to refrain myself from doing 'the finger scoop' of getting the last remaining bits of chocolate sauce from the little jug. A pot of tea sounded like a lovely way to finish off the meal and given the decadence of all that passed before then it was a solid 'oh go on then' when offered the Petit Four's. Now being gf we knew that some petit fours would be off the menu for us and we got gorgeous chocolate truffles instead - nah, nah, nah, nah, nah! They were divine - utterly gorgeous and definitely worth being 'special' for. Chocolate and coconut and white chocolate and gooey lemon centre (don't try to bite the white choc ones in half as it will be messy) - they were so good! Food was simply stunning and ranks as my best meal - nudging out the simple and now closed, legendary Rome restaurant visited a decade ago. Mark Greenaway is a god - beautiful, simple ingredients, transformed into something simply stunning. Chatting to the man himself after lunch, I found out the pork belly is staying on the new menu - praise the Lord!

Sentiment analysis: Amazing. I couldn't have asked for anything better! We did wait, but the nice thing is that they call you instead of holding a pager - so being in a prime location, we decided to go bar hop and just came back when they called me! It was great. The food was amazing. If you're looking for calorie loaded, grease leaking, mouth watering, heart stopping food then look no further! We LOVED it. It was my two girlfriends and myself and our eyes were bigger than our stomachs (mind you we had our beer goggles on). We decided to get two different burgers and appetizer to share - we could barely finish it all which is so unlike us! We got the nacho appetizer that I would recommend to ANYONE. It's made on their house made chips and is honestly to die for. I can't wait to go back and to check out their other location near my house (NE OH). I'll have to wait until I get another diet cheat day, it'll cost me my month of them!

Sentiment analysis: This two star is based on overall appearance, ONLY. Grille36 managers please take heed and don't get angry, just go it. I like the appearance of the place, but there are way too many bugs and the bar area stinks.... BaaaaaaaaaaDuh! The floor around the bar was extremely sticky on my visit. The bar towels that were being used were gross, leaving the bar itself sticky and stale smelling. My advice: let's get these bar tenders to be more consciousess about cleaning better. I mean HELL.... Not just 5 minutes ago.... One of em dropped a beer glass as he was filling it, and automatically slung his hands back.... AT ME..... Along with beer. Thanks. Lets clean up your act.
