Thank you, London Yelpers, for leading me to this gem for dinner with a business colleague last night. What drew us here were the comments posted by Yelpers on the wine list and unique menu items, and they nailed it!
I really liked the ambience. The big windows offering view of the activity outside are cool. And the wine list is, indeed, varied while being very nicely priced. We settled on a bottle of Barbaresco Roccalini, a vintage I have never tried. Crisp and dry, it was very flavorful and complimented both our meals very nicely.
We started by sharing a cheese tray featuring a buffalo's milk blue and sheep's milk with truffle - very unique and very good! I very much enjoyed the tuna tare tare appetizer; very fresh and flavorful. For my entree I chose the pheasant garnished with walnuts, pear and chamomile. The pheasant was quite dry and I didn't finish it. To be honest, I don't know if that is to be expected or if mine was simply overcooked.
In any event, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would definitely return. read more
