| - Small and intimate locale with some good eats (and some misses). My bf and I came based on a friend's recommendation.
For appetizers, we got the wild mushroom torte and the wild boar spring rolls. We wouldn't normally get that much before the entrees but I was starving that night and just couldn't wait! The torte was a bit bland - I think it would have fared better with some sort of sauce accompaniment. And the spring rolls were a bit burnt. I think the issue was that their spring roll making technique was off. It was made too loose, causing the filling to be exposed to the hot oil, resulting in it being oily and slightly burnt on the ends.
The saving grace were the entrees. I ordered the Cornish Hen, which was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and paired well with the roasted heirloom carrots, bitter greens, roasted potatoes, and roasted onion jus. The bf ordered the pappardelle, with braised rabbit, buttered leeks, apricot preserve, parmesan cheese, and sautéed greens.
All in all, based on my one time experience, if I were to come back, I'd probably opt for the entrees and pass on the appetizers.
