-Salad was a little over dressed but the ingredients works really well together.
-Tomatoes were salted unevenly, tasty
-Hali was over cooked (so sad), whole dish needs more salt
-Duck was perfectly cooked, sauce has lamb?
-Dessert was awesome, the cake itself needs a little work but it was really well balanced
Overall: 7.8
