They must give a hell of a lot away! I really don't think I'll go next year unless I win tickets again. The food and experience wasn't great enough for me to think it's worth the price of entry + crowns!

Some dishes divide people but a few did have universal problems. The Libertine duck dish definitely just tasted like pate on a really crunchy piece of bread. The wallaby tataki was definitely way too salty. The whole value for money argument is really a contentious issue. If I had to pay for entry too, I would really consider whether to go. Even with free tickets, it was still quite costly. I guess it's a fun thing and in part you are paying for the experience, so I would go back if I have free tickets next year.
