It was a bit weird - we walked in the place and there were plenty of tables ready set up for guests - except it appeared we were going to be the only customers eating out that night.  The Garlic bread arrived in good time. It consisted of one sesame bread roll cut lengthwise. The garlic butter needs more garlic to the point that it was almost missing in action. Like recently at The Last Post it did however have some fresh herbs with it, which is always a redeeming feature.  The slightly mangled look of the bread on the square platter looked almost comical and was a bit pretentious  - or as we Kiwis tend to say dressing up Mutton as Lamb!  I could not work out how the bread arrived at best lukewarm, given that we were the only paying customers on the premises. It was eaten far to quickly and was not enough to share between 2 people.
Turns out that we were indeed the only eating people and they closed up for the night as soon as finished our meal.  This certainly rates as a very weird eating experience.
