Description

Every great sauce starts with a roux, and here it's very much a speciality. The trend-conscious cooking features playful combinations, engaging textures and international influences, and is underpinned by those robust sauces. Think medium-rare fillet of hare in a sweet-spice crust, elevated by a refined game jus and complemented by slices of raw foie gras and crunchy quince. The sommelier's expert wine pairings are delivered with infectious enthusiasm. One final tip: The long dining counter is our favourite spot in this elegant luxury brasserie.

Service is consistently described as professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, enhancing the dining experience. The atmosphere is cozy and suitable for social gatherings. However, some guests note that the value for money is questionable due to higher prices, and issues such as slow pacing between courses and tight table spacing have been mentioned.
