With a half hour wait ahead of us, we ordered some drinks and a lovely cheese platter, which came with slices of baguette and our choice of three cheeses (I picked one each from the cow's milk, goat's milk and sheep's milk sections) as well as some homecured salami and prosciutto. A great start to the meal, washed down with some sparkling wine. The wait wasn't too long, and anyway, the waiting area was pretty nice and comfortable.
We shared a starter of mussels with garlic toast.
R picked the set dinner, which started with some smoked trout.
My mom had the duck confit.
The main part of the set dinner was seared ahi tuna.
The dessert that was part of the set was a fig clafoutis and caramel ice-cream.
But to add to that, we ordered this "mille feuille" that had cherries, pistachios and a lemon verbana cream. It sounded different and it was. Very refreshing and a fantastic end to this birthday dinner!
