Small, cosy restaurant with nice and warm decors that were very welcoming. We were greeted at the door by Philippe, the friendly and helpful director of the restaurant who was always on the move and keeping a lookout to make sure our glasses were filled...and orders were ok. Very kind and humble "Mr Bean" indeed! We started with escargot and foie gras infused with pear sauce, both of which were delicate but a tad too bland to our liking. The mains - 280g Steak Frites (I changed the fries to mashed potatoes) and Monk Fish Wellington (outside of the menu) were delicious and cooked to perfection. For desserts we had Crème Brulée (always a classic French I'd order) and the Grand Marnier Soufflé (with orange-flavoured liquor). We love everything about the Crème Brulée but find the alcohol in the Soufflé to be too overpowering. The texture though was perfect. Oh and not forgetting the wondeful rosè we both got to pair with the dishes! Perhaps a little disappointment comes from "nothing" - I indicated earlier that it was a birthday dinner for the missus and I was expecting maybe just a small cake or something to grace the occasion, but nothing was arranged. However we still left the restaurant happy and satisfied! Great work, Philippe and team!More
