I recently went to a restaurant in Warwick called Tailor's. It was a surprise visit organised by friends, and prior to that I hadn't given the place a second thought. By the end of the night I was left amazed at the amazing food on offer, served in such unique ways. However, this isn't a food blog or restaurant review site - Compliment Corner exists to say thank you to individuals who make a difference.
The man whose service I want to recognise is Mark Fry. It turns out he was one of the chefs and owners of the restaurant, but I didn't know that at the time. From the moment we walked in, Mark welcomed us and explained the menu. Even though the place was full he took time to chat with us and recommend what food we might like and which drinks would go with it. He didn't have to do this as there was a very friendly waitress on hand to help us. It showed how much he cared about what he does that he spent so much time chatting to people. There were obviously regular customers on that night, too, as it seemed like he had taken the time to get to know them on previous visits.
The meal was fantastic and we thought it was worth every penny. This is down, in no small part, to Mark's passion for food and efforts he made to make us feel special. My letter to Mark is below.
