Occupying part of the St George's Cathedral’s vaulted stone crypt, this restaurant, which serves a continent-hopping menu of dishes, is best visited for its live jazz. Concerts start at around 8pm and last most of the evening. Some very accomplished performers take to the stage here; for some concerts booking ahead is advisable.
