Chef almost single handedly runs this restaurant. Sauces are perfect and expertly executed. The menu changes often and brings seasonal flavours into play.
The entire table enjoyed his menu. We especially liked the roasted suckling pork which was delicious and so tender! A new benchmark for pork.
Almost all pros. There was a con with our chicken dish. The chicken dish was an added 6 euros on top of the prix fix menu. The chicken was under seasoned and a little over done which made it our least favorite thing to eat. Just needed more seasoning on the chicken meat.

One of the best meals we had whole year. The chef is simply great with flavours out of this world. Would recommend a visit. The service is also great and nice with the wife of the chef mending the front. An absolute must! FYI: this is not a Thai restaurant. This is not a Vietnamese restaurant. They do not serve breakfast only dinner. it is affordable.. so all of the reviews stating the contrary are in my opinion not valid. Check the...
