Started off with some amuse bouche. I was never a big fan of having sweet appetitzers I think it's rather unappetizing but yes that could just be a matter of taste.

I ordered a two course lunch. There weren't much selection on the variety of bread, only 3 kinds and honestly none of them were special nor anywhere near fine. My first course was a grilled squid with black rice, it was okay but again not great.

Main course was a duck with res cabbage. Very mediocre quality. The chips on top of it were also not too interesting.

Overall speaking I don't understand why this restaurant is still here after so many years. The portions were pretty small as well so you need to eat 2-3 pieces of bread in order to be full when you ordered a lunch for 2.

Somehow the restaurants under Mandarin group has gotten some serious problems over recent years starting from causette to amber and Pierre. This is indeed a little worrying.
