For now everything is for sale, their show plates ($250)
that match the painting on the wall in the entry hall
and even the painting itself.
The meal we had was superlative. After three small Amuse bouche we had a series of dishes each better than the last until the coup de gras, if you can say such a thing, an unbelievable smoked chocolate souffle. Only one dish failed to reach the highest standard, a tuna which had been cooked through rather than seared. The waghu dish and the cheek were mouth watering, tender and full of flavour. Just simply a spectacular meal.

Fantastic recipe! Makes me want to eat sweets. I'm just glad this restaurant does not use teflon pans, as teflon can be toxic, if over heated.
