Nice trip report, but from the descriptions of the dishes, I would worry that they tend overly sweet (cocoa, butterscotch, apples, coconut, passion fruit, etc.). Was it balanced?

It generally was. The passion fruit was more fruity than sweet, if that makes sense. The apples were green apples. The coconut was subtle. Of course when you order desserts, you expect sweetness, but even those had the sweetness reduced a bit. And the duck tartare had pretty much no sweetness outside of the choclate tuile, which wasn't terribly sweet itself anyway.

The thing about Tailor is that the salty dishes aren't all salty, and the sweet ones aren't all sweet. There are elements of both in most dishes, but the whole point is balancing things and finding new flavors. If you think they will be tending too sweet, then just order the least-sweet stuff you can find. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
