The service was incredible, the hostess and waiter were so welcoming and kind. Besides that the view is breathtaking! I'd love to have dinner here during sunset or in the evening it must be even nicer then.
Now, onto the food! I came during winterlicious for lunch.
For appetizers I tried the foie gras parfait. It was hands down the highlight of the meal for me. It was wonderfully rich and silky, the mouth feel was just dreamy. The sweet and tart jam and the salty buttery pastry along with the grapes offered wonderful contrast from the foie gras.
The fogo island cod rilette was interesting. It's a very tart, tangy dish. The plating is striking. The fish is very soft and topped with pickles and cauliflower. The pickles are very sour. It's quite refreshing.
For the main course I tried the salmon and the beef.
The beef is amazing. It was melt in your mouth tender and just dreamy to eat. The plating was beautiful with the bright orange puree and vegetables contrasting from the dark shiny beef.
The salmon was interesting. It was a tad dry when I got it but the skin was delightfully crispy. The contrast between the lentils, fish and skin was quite nice.
Dessert was wonderful. The flourless chocolate cake is incredible rich and silky. It's delicious! The yogurt verine is lovely as well. The yogurt is silky and has a rich mouth feel. And the tangy sea buck thorn berries offer a lovely tangy burst of sunny flavour that contrasts nicely with the mild and creamy yogurt.
Overall I'd recommend the restaurant to a friend and definitely want to go back. The plating here is definitely among the most beautiful, if not the most beautiful, that I've seen.
