The food there is nothing short of delicious. Every time I've been there it's been fabulous. Flavourful and plentiful, and I'd even go as far as saying it's the best Turkish I've ever had (having never been to Turkey myself) You must try the mixed meze and the shish kebab, because hot damn, it's good. The service is also excellent, the staff, who perhaps don't speak fluent English, are attentive and polite, and they do a fantastic lunch menu for around £8 for 3 courses. Can't get much better than that. ; )

A surprisingly stylish restaurant in the heart of rural Kent. Looking very new and spotlessly clean…read morewhen we visited, the welcome at 1ThirtySix was warm and the service impeccable. Despite claiming to be a fusion of Japanese, Thai and Chinese cuisine I think it was 80% Japanese, as were the staff. Not being hugely adventurous we had teriyaki chicken and sweet tangy lamb, which were excellent (could have been served hotter, my wife said). The desserts were good too my chocolate volcano was wonderful, just like the choccy pudding my old mum used to make (a tad pricey though at £4.95). A few minor gripes: our plates were whipped away as soon as we put down our knives & forks. They weren't doing it to hurry us despite being Saturday night they weren't that busy; it was just the staff's enthusiasm but it made us a trifle uncomfortable. The menus were largely in dark type on a black background all but impossible to read in the subdued lighting. And the 10% added to the bill for service is a habit that I thought had died out. I prefer to decide for myself how much of a tip I want to leave, and make sure it goes to the right person. As an aside: why don't foreign restaurants get a native English speaker to proof-read their menus? Some of the errors can be hilarious!

Despite being busy the service was fairly prompt and the very friendly waitress spent time explaining the various specials; she managed to make them sound delicious and three of us ordered them without even looking at the menu. Later examination revealed an extensive and very tempting menu. We all had glasses of house red, which was good stuff, but the staff were unable to tell us what wine it was presumably Europlonk but very good anyway. The food was every bit as good as anticipated (though I don't care for those thin French fries). We all had different desserts and they were lovely, though a bit overpriced I thought; the waitress still seemed to have plenty of time for us and stopped to share a joke as we hummed and hahhed over the selection. All in all a very pleasant 90 minutes.

There are loads of interesting things to look at and be tempted by. We ordered a pot of tea for two, a tuna sandwich for me and the beetroot soup for my father. The tea came in, quite possibly, the largest teapot I have ever seen, and it was delicious! THEY HAD SKIMMED MILK!!!! :-) :-) :-) and used tea-pigs teabags, which I had not tried before, but am definitely using from now on - it truly was that delicious. The tuna sandwich was extremely substantial, made on granary bread and containing some fantastic tuna. The beetroot soup was home made, warm and delicious. It worked out really well - my father had a quarter of my sandwich and that combined with his soup made a perfect sized lunch. I could easily have got away with only half a sandwich (they are quite hefty), but it was delicious and I was being greedy! The service was so friendly, so lovely and homey that we may well go back there soon, even though it's a bit far to drive just for lunch. Side note, if you are in Tenterden, Chapel Down and Bibbenden vineyards are well worth a visit.
