Food is unpretentious and ... deliciously prepared.
These guys, 2 brothers I believe, for sure know their trade.
It all started with a glass of Corsican rose to study the menu. Useful to open up the appetite and take time to review options. Nicely chilled, light and refreshing.
There we go.
It will be a small Tartare to start with.
Easy to make, easy to miss! This one was nicely chopped and beautifully seasoned. What more to you want from a Tartare?
I hear they sell a lot of meat. No wonder! I will, for sure, come back for this!
My wife went for the mussels "marinières" a la crème! Very fresh, well-seasoned. Unlike some places, they are not shy on white wine and it shows. She even said it is one of the best mussels "marinières" she had in Hong Kong. Coming from her....this is quite something!
She followed with the US beef filet mignon, just grilled, without sauce. Very tender, juicy, cooked to perfection. She asked for "rare" and she got it "rare". Well done! (If I may say so).
I moved to fish. The Barramundi filet was much tastier than I anticipated since I am no great fan of barramundi. The accompanying risotto was unctuous and well balanced and I would not have minded if the scallops had come in larger numbers.
Saying this, we were full enough to skip dessert.
We will be back for sure. The terrace is terrific, the food and service well in line and the bill is gentle! Life is good!
Other Info. :
Are you hunting for the same in food?
Value for money, fresh ingredients prepared with love and skill, served by nice people?
Basic isn't it?
Basic but harder to find than cheap or not so cheap crap, or pretentious menu with exorbitant prices.
