Truly spectacular and thoughtful flavour combinations, particularly the sweet and savoury kind. Try the charcuterie board, one of the best I've had anywhere; the autumn beet salad with Gorgonzola and pumpkin seed brittle; and the braised beef. Pass on the grape and almond tart with peanut butter mouse (the peanut and almond flavours lost their distinct character in combination, the grape jam didn't offer enough contrast and the overall texture too uniform). Good service and lovely, warm atmosphere.
