Fantastic Bread selection with french butter, sea-salt and Pesto-dip
FILET AND CAVIAR OF BIRNBAUM'S SALMON TROUT - RAPINI
SHOULDER OF BEEF - BELL PEPPER AND STEWED CUCUMBER
BONFIRE - VANILLA, PEAR AND CEPS
Amuse-Gueule
I have to say the whole lunch was incredible and such a special experience
The salmon was perfect and the broccoli was prepared in a way you could never do that at home.
The shoulder of beef was so tender I almost cried.. Perfectly matched by an incredible sauce and the onions had such a special taste, genius!!!
The dessert was again one of a kind, the chocolate was salted, the ice-cream and the pears where in perfect harmony...
