Despite his initial doubts, Jimi Famurewa finds The Ritz to be a gloriously indulgent treat
"An enterprise with an almost manic devotion to superior hospitality, old-school razzmatazz and an intense, oddly forward-thinking approach to deliciousness"
"The vibe, in short, is very much that of a Liberace-designed fallout shelter.
Or a gilded cage with a blanket gratefully thrown over it"
"for a few hours, we gloried in the act of a meal that was about nothing more than Delirious, Christmassy enjoyment"
