We did the 9 course chef s tasting menu, although we swapped some of the courses. We started with an amazing amuse bouche which was a salmon tartar in a crispy cone. Next I had good but not great beet dish. Then I had the sweet carrot salad which wasn t actually sweet but was it was really good. Then we had a John Dory dish which was very moist and really tasty. Next up was the bread butter which was fine. Then the chestnut agnolotti which was good. The tagliatelle with truffles was next and that was also really good. Tons of truffles. Then I had a beef dish which was very flavorful and a little marble-y. We were so full that we skipped the cheese course and went right to dessert. My favorite was the coffee cappuccino which actually had very little coffee flavor and was outstanding. At the end, they invited us to see the kitchen and meet the chef and gave us yummy cookies to go (they were supposed to last a few days but in the end they only lasted a few minutes )(we ate them immediately!)
