I had been looking forward to visiting MIR after reading a favourable review and looking at the website. Design-wise, I was definitely not disappointed. The menu is small and pretty eclectic, but I was rather disappointed by the salad with caramelized haloumi. I had expected more complexity in flavour, but in fact the diced haloumi was essentially covered in a thick sweet layer of hard caramel (think candy apple) that was overly sweet for my taste. On the other hand, the lemoy salad dressing was right up my alley. For dessert, I had gratinated milk rice, which was lovely and reminded me of Turkish style "firin sütlac". What we (a group of 5 people) all really, really disliked was the fact that acoustics were really bad (at least were we were sitting, i.e. right next to the door) and this despite the fact that no music was playing, nor was it particularly noisy. We ended up huddling close together and even so, it was really hard to understand the person sitting right opposite you. In a nutshell - not the ideal setting for a dinner with more than 2 people in my opinion.
