The Glassblowing House (Plymouth)

Had dinner for 4 on 11th July 2009. The location is good, the dining room and staff are excellent. HOWEVER, they really just miss the mark with the food. It was "OK" with some serious flaws. A few hints to the kitchen: Chips, when "styled" like jenga blocks should be closer to the size of tabletop jenga, not the outdoor version, they are WAY too big, unappetising and just don't work. Belly Pork should be unctuous and not gooey, flabby fat. The steaks are a little on the thin side (which makes a rare steak very hard to do well). Last negative is the WATER - when serving tap water, it really does need to be filtered, as is, it was vile. HOWEVER, all this being said, the Glass Blowing House has great potential, a few tweaks here and there with the menu and it will offer Plymouth a very pleasant experience.
