We had dinner at the hotel after traveling from Vancouver, Canada. We had booked in advance which was good thing because the restaurant was full. The meal and service were outstanding. After an amuse bouche, I started with the pressée de tomate (a layer of warmed leeks, topped by a layer of smoked salmon, topped by a layer of tomatoes with some of the moisture pressed out, with an excellently spiced chive mayonnaise in a crèpe. The main course was a veal medallion decorated with skewer of mushroom, some mini raviolis, a few grape tomatoes served on a plate with green beans, a potato cake, thin sliced snow peas, a small cooked tomato, and a zucchini mousse on top of thin sliced zucchini. Desert was chocolate dome, basically chocolate mousse encased in a thin layer of dark chocolate. To start, my wife had minestrone (a rich vegetable soup, topped with crab). For her main course, she had the lamb tenderloin which was fork tender with a rich lamb reduction served with the same array of vegetables that I had. For desert she also had the chocolate dome. Even though we were not staying at the hotel after this first night, we made three more visits to the restaurant for dinner. While the set menus are not inexpensive, the value for money is outstanding.
