| - 3.5 for the food, but rounded up to 4 for the service and ambiance. The setting is adorable. It's like you're eating in someone's house.
In terms of food, I tried all of the appetizers on the menu. The foie gras appetizer stood out, and the beef tartare was good as well. I wasn't a big fan of the octopus appetizer because of the dried olives. We also had scrambled eggs with white truffle (not on the menu), and it was very tasty.
I tried a few of the entrees - canard a l'orange, lamb shank, beef cheek, and grouper. The duck was tender for the most part, although some parts were tough to chew. I really liked the flavour combination of the grouper dish, as it had a bit of spice to it. Beef cheek was super soft (melt in your mouth) but I would prefer beef cheek in a bahn mi as opposed to as a main dish. I think I'm used to chewing more when beef is a main. The lamb shank was also very tender, but I've had better lamb shanks before in terms of the sauce it comes in.
I had the souffle for the dessert and the orange white chocolate sauce that they pour into it is quite delicious.
They gave complimentary creem puffs at the end of our meal, and those were yums! The stuff inside the cream puffs tastes the same as the souffle sauce? Mmm
