Food was very interesting with the use of different ingredients that are not commonly used - curry in French dish, chilli and basil in dessert, etc.
Trout was exceptional. Lightly crisp on the outside yet the flesh remains tender and flavourful. Flavours are well balanced to not cover the original taste of the fish itself.

The waiter was bilingual and took care to explain each dish to us in English. The manager came out to make sure we were satisfied (we very much were!).
