i was just wondering if anyone knows how long the wait for a table is at The Fat Duck?living in ireland want to make a move over there after christmas.

i would imagine at least a couple of monthes, especially with it being the holiday season, i would just phone up and ask if i were you

Hi chef. You can get most of what you need from the website. If you are coming after christmas note that they are shut until Tuesday 9th January. Take special note of the booking rules, you need a credit card to book and if you are a no show it will cost you £80pp. Food is amazing, second hand information at present, I am going in March.

cheese and chef thanks for the response im just new on this messageboards its great to talk to a bunch of people who share the same passions.Thanks again.Cheers

Apologies for the late posting.
I've been.
My Brother-in-Law took me for my birthday, as he's a chef we "managed" to find a table.
We did the tasting menu. I shudder at how much it cost, but it was a lot better value than some other "top" restaurants I have had tasting menus at.
It was a thouroughly enjoyable experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

O wow!! I would love to try this...I'm from Ireland as well - and we always try to treat ourselves to a trip over for a nice meal... altho its usually close to Manchester as we go over fro the football. I'm dying dying to go to this restaurant!! I have previously applied to el bulli ...but as yet have not been sucessful...but i shall keep trying. Glad to hear a good report about tis restaurant...although, it was always going to be worth the trip accross by itself!!!
