Booked the Chef's table at the end of October 2022 and I can honestly say it was the best dining experience ever - and we have eaten at quite a few restaurants all around the world!
It was our first night in Jersey and it really kicked the holiday off in style and set the tone for a great week.
The Chef's Table is excellent - on a slightly raised platform, with it's own aircon - so perfect for being in the kitchen, but not hot. There were 5 of us - and we had plenty of room. The table is right opposite the pass - so you get to see all of the kitchen action and the Head Chef is more than happy to chat to you along the way and serves some of the courses himself - if there is time.
We had a dedicated Maitre D' who looked after us so well for the whole evening. None of this scripted description of the dishes that we have sometimes experienced at Michelin Starred restaurants - where the same thing is said to all guests - and just feels impersonal. This was a genuine conversation throughout the evening - which made it much more personal! We had a genuinely excellent evening of good food, perfect wines and great conversation with all the kitchen personnel
The wine pairing is excellent value (as is the tasting menu) - so definitely go for that.
When we left he kitchen for a comfort break - the restaurant itself is perfect - but it was great to get back into the kitchen again for the atmosphere.
Each course was totally memorable in its own right - in fact we have been to other restaurants since October, including Michelin starred ones in London and Cornwall, and we always keep coming back to discussing how excellent Bohemia was!
We always want to eat in the restaurant kitchen now - we were so thoroughly spoilt!
Bohemia is the total package - so try to book the Chef's Table (unless we want it :) ) and make sure, when you visit Jersey, that it is your first port of call.
