The menu here leans into a mix of fresh flavors and carefully balanced dishes. One standout during my visit was the duck-rich, tender, and cooked with precision. It’s the kind of dish that immediately signals the kitchen knows exactly what it’s doing. Equally memorable were the scallops with garlic sauce, which arrived perfectly seared and packed with flavor without being overwhelming.
What I appreciated most was how the experience unfolded naturally. After the main course, transitioning into dessert felt effortless. The sorrel granita was a refreshing surprise-light, slightly tangy, and a great palate cleanser. Pair that with a berry mocktail, and you’ve got a combination that feels both indulgent and refreshing at the same time. Even the coffee here deserves a mention, rounding off the meal with a smooth, satisfying finish.
