I rather liked it. set out in sensible sections - wines by the glass, half bottles, champagne and sparkling, then national and regional areas each page of wines is preceded by a map of the area from which they come. We've been going for safety lately and started with a bottle of NV Charles Ellnor champagne ($95) but they ran out after that and we had a couple of single glasses of something else to follow. An Alsatian muscat was $24 a glass! The meal began with a chef's offering of a ceviche of octopus

- a tender morsel.We chose the three course prixe fixe ($84/person) and started with snails, wild scallops with a veloute sauce

was much to my taste but not for you if you don't like slow cooked food. These were followed by a cheese dish
