Had very high expectations, given the publicity. We wanted to order the beef tartare as appetizer but the one the table next to us was having looked massive. So we ordered the razor clams with parsley and garlic instead. It went to together very well. Then went for the 2 fish: charred threadfin and cod. We thought the threadfin was a bit too charred - the skin had a bitter burnt taste, and said as much to our friendly server, who replied that that was exactly how the chef wanted- burnt. (Okay......) The cod was quite a big portion. By the time I got to the middle, meat was only lukewarm. (Maybe that’s how the chef wanted it too...) Duck breast- big portion as well, skin could be crispier. High light of the nite - those YUM YUM YUM madeleines. Needed to wait a bit as they were baked to order, by piece. Debated a bit as to whether to encore madeleines or try the other dessert on offer, dark chocolate choux. We decided on the latter. There were 3 pieces per serving, and it was too much. Took one bite of mine and kicked my friend for rejecting my request to encore the madeleines. Raised the question to friendly server re why need to eat 3 choux in one go but Madeleine had to order by piece. Of cos her reply: That’s how the chef wanted it. In summary, would definitely return for a Madeleine bonanza.
