Tucked away in Ballard estate, this place is a treat to the eyes and the tongue. The interiors are visually soothing and neat with blues, whites and browns all over. They have also curated multiple menus throughout the week, the weekend and also for brunches. And the overall presentation of food and service is quite impressive.
Yay - Creamy pumpkin and ginger soup Poached pear and arugula Warm burrata
Nay - None.
Here are few of the things we tried,
Salad - the Poached pear and arugula salad is a must have. The pear was rightly Poached and the flavor was perfectly balanced and the hazelnuts added just the right amount of crunch.
Soup - the Creamy pumpkin and ginger soup is not to be missed. A perfect start to the meal with one of the best soups I have had.
Eggs Benedict -
Warm burrata and the red pepper risotto were equally amazing and with a completely different taste. This clubbed with their red wine was just perfect.
Desert - we had their classic Hazelnut crema and the Honey flan. Nothing could go wrong there with the perfect texture and flavor.
We also had the Peach, pineapple, banana smoothie, completely refreshing.
All in all, the place is a perfect package for everything. Be it a breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner, it serves all your fantasies. A classic European meal and experience.
