Guest Hedda Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Changing the name won't do much if the food and service stay the same. Too many red flags there for me, even if the bull has been bottled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catawampuscat Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 My last meal at Ole ,before the name chance, was excellent..It was a few months back and each course was excellent and the dessert was incredible..This was a set menu aournd 300B. and well worth it..I look forward to trying the new Bordeaux soon and hope it is as good as Ole , after they got their act together...service was excellent as well and much much better than when they first opened..

Guest Hedda Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Well, I gave up on this place six months ago, but I will try again if cat found it so excellent. I hope that pussy doesn't think that anything not served in a bowl on the floor is the cat's meow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest A Rose By Any Other Name Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Changing the name won't do much if the food and service stay the same. Too many red flags there for me, even if the bull has been bottled. I have to say I agree with Hedda on this one. I have been to this restaurant before and after the name change, and unfortunately, that is all that has changed. The ambiance of the place is impeccable, but the food is fair to poor in my opinion. New chef, perhaps? The Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaybutton Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 It seems like this is a restaurant people are either going to love or hate, with no in between. I suppose the thing to do is try it and judge for yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stef Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 It seems like this is a restaurant people are either going to love or hate, with no in between. I suppose the thing to do is try it and judge for yourself. Yes, the food was in fact very rich. When I am back home, I am used to eat meals with a rich based sauce, but here in Thailand, you are eating with caution every day ( well at least I am ) . Speeding weeks & months in Thailand and eating Thai food or similar dishes and then get to Ole for a Pepper Sauce Filet , that will be a shocking difference in flavor but also in diggestion. I have ate there few time and each time it was good. Slow in services but it was really good. Anyway French People can spend hours at the table, so it should not supprise anyone to be there for at least a good 1 to 2 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hedda Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Tried it again this past weekend. New name; old game. Frankly, based on my experience last saturday, i dont know how anyone gets a decent meal there. The food is mediocre, at its best. The Service is slow and unresponsive. Management seems unable to cope. Bye, bye, Bordeaux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
