Intro:
I was floating on a cloud the entire time.
Food:
We had the six course tasting menu:
Avocado pure in a thin herb gele and olive oil flavored curd cheese: AMAZING.
Shaved white truffles and potatoes with olive oil, topped with foie gras carpaccio: AMAZING.
Custard of Gorgonzola with a pear vierge and sage tomatoes: Decent.
Pan-fried sea bass with a lemon grass foam and stewed baby leeks: AMAZING
Grilled Kobe beef with matsutake mushroom, parsley tempura, horseradish mustard: AMAZING. I have to admit, I was a little fearful of the idea of the mushroom and tempura with my Kobe, but it all complimented each other nicely.
Pineapple with hazelnut-praline and orange Pekoe tea sorbet: I didn't have a chance to try this. At this point, I was feeling like a genuine fatty.
Service:
It was perfect, just the right amount of attention and knowledge without it being so overbearing.
Ambiance:
Exquisite. Very clean and minimal. Brought back memories of Paris.
Overall:
This is truly an experience. It's worth every shiny penny.
