It had been many years since I had eaten here. The calamari was wonderful. We shared the foie gras pate. I unfortunately was not impressed. The flavor to me was mainly cream. I had mussels for lunch. They were good although for my taste, the juice needed a little more garlic. Our waiter was a gentleman from Turkey and was wonderful.

We had a business dinner and everything was delicious. We had a lovely bottle of bubbles, the lemon ricotta and the charcuterie. I think most of us had the lamb, steak or the sea bass. Not a bite left for any boxes. My crew never sleeps on dessert, so we had tiramisu and the apple pie cheesecake. Which I’ll likely dream about both for the foreseeable future. Thanks for great spot for meeting our new CIO.
