For our early valentines dinner...decided to give this place a try....
First off, was dissappointed with the bread and butter.
Bread was stale.and cold. Was not fresh at all. Butter was bland and tasted like a mix between whipped and margarine...i had to season with salt and pepper.
Appys were watermelon with radish and goat cheese...tasted so refreshing and reminded me of tuscany...
Mains ordered were...pasta timi....spaghetti with poached lobster ( yes!) ...mushrooms, sweet bread.. and a rich truffle sauce. The execution was perfect. Everything complemented each other and didnt overpower each ingridients identity. The best part was the truffle sauce...so creamy, rich, and flavourful. Perfectly paired with the poached lobster. Lobster was poached just right..not overcooked or undercooked. There was enough serving on the plate. Mushrooms were also done well. Tender and soaked up the flavor of the truffle sauce...
Next main was salmon...the presentation was bar-none. The plate looked like a garden pond. It was epic and impressive . Salmon was so moist and tender...it was a step or two after sashimi...so fresh fresh fresh
....
The onion bulbs also impressed me to no end...when sliced in half...i found out that the chef had stuffed them with some.kind of candied fruit...like peach....it completed the onions really well. The attention to detail was phenomenal....
Lastly, the ambiance of the place.was very very impressibe.. the roman columns and chandliers made you feel like royalty.
Happy eating!
