the last time i went was almost 3 yrs ago and the food is still as good as i remember it to be. here's what we ate:
- roast spring chicken - very tasty and the kids polished off the whole thing
- tenderloin - very tender, also polished off by the kids
- mushroom risotto - one to share between me and hubby (had to doggy bag), and one for my dad as main (he said it was too much when he saw it but ended up eating the whole thing, which is a lot for a man whose appetite is so small that a single piece of chocolate truffle in the afternoon could derail his dinner plans!)
- osso bucco - yummy but i couldn't finish!
- sole baked in foil - surprisingly good and my mom finished it before i could ask to taste it (first choice had been branzino in salt but they were out of stock)
- roast baby pig - the only item that didn't get 2 thumbs up from me - a bit chewy compared to chinese style roast suckling pig, and a bit gamey (but maybe that's just how suckling pigs taste?)
service was a bit slow in the beginning as there were only 2 waitresses plus a maitre'd/manageress who also served the tables. however it turned out that the staff were very pleasant and helpful, and the manageress even offered us the dessert platter (millefoglie, panna cotta and tiramisu) on the house when she learned that it was my parents' anniversary!
overall a great experience - so much so that my 78 yr old Dad plans to go there again via the central escalator!
