This is my second visit to the restaurant, though for dinner it was a first. The dinner rolls were warm and went well with vinaigrette - the temperature of bread is a small point but is often overlooked by eateries. The appetizer was interesting, with ham seated atop a crisp "dumpling" with tomato cream inside. The chicken Caesar salad was of the usual quality.

This is my second visit to the restaurant, though for dinner it was a first. The dinner rolls were warm and went well with vinaigrette - the temperature of bread is a small point but is often overlooked by eateries. The appetizer was interesting, with ham seated atop a crisp "dumpling" with tomato cream inside. The chicken Caesar salad was of the usual quality. These were nicely matched with the glass of cava I ordered - not a spectacular marriage but very comfortably paired.
The giant grilled scallop with foam and asparagus as garnishes was enticing, the scallop was fresh and the foam added to the complexity of the taste. The carrot cake-carrot-foie gras was even better; the foie gras was rich and melted in one's mouth, together with boiled carrots and carrot cake these made a surprisingly perfect combination. The lobster bisque was rich and smooth even though I'm not a soup/bisque enthusiast myself. The veal was quite tender at the recommended temperance, the fish was satisfying but rather too surf and turf a dish to be served in this glamorous place. Last but not least the desserts consisted of fresh fruits and raspberry sorbet - quite refreshing. The coffee and petit four were fair.
A final comment - the foam was nice but it was too much of a recurring theme to have it four times. The undersigned happened to leave behind some documents and had to return to retrieve them; the staff was most helpful and it was a great opportunity to savour the excellent service. For $1000 per capita, this is not at all expensive - but weekend lunches are definitely more of a bargain.
