Chaps,
Anybody remember what the resteraunt is that looks over the start finish straight is called? Posh place that has a huge veranda with a bar on top of it.

I was there last year... but it was all a bit... err... hazy...



Can't find the bloody thing anywhere.

Thanks!
Chris

No No no I'm not smile
I have pictures of Mansell's number 5 being unloaded from the trailer in scrutiny, taken from the smoking balcony just outside the restaurant (below the veranda)

I was joking, in the old days (about 5 years ago) before the rebuild there used to be a brilliant resturant with access onto the top of the starters type box, I found myself up there and it was stunning. I think they rebuilt the resturant and if I recall the old one was called 'The Resturant'. If you find it book us a table....

There's a restaurant in the Village, called "Le Village" - not been in it myself. Can you wander in or do you need a reservation?

Do not go to 'Le village'. Set menu which is utter crap and in no way value for money. Avoid at all costs.

The cheapest scoff the Panoramic Reastaurant does is the 98 Euro menu - per person - not including booze!
