    Chef Gregory is passionate about his ingredients and the stories behind them. His presentation is immaculate as well but I fear that he has prioritised those over flavour. Intricate and skilled work does not compensate for deliciousness. He misses the mark on a number of dishes, we had the full 5 course experience. This is inevitably enhanced with small offerings. The oysters were stand-out, as well as the trout and brioche .. the leek ‘grass’ dish must be re-worked. It is a texture without flavour and the texture is not palatable. Chef Gregory was hosting a small private chef event so we were party to this and his personal al attention, which was unexpected. The staff did try and steer us to another room to avoid the party but we chose to experience it. Exceptional service and a beautiful setting would definately have us returning to try the al a carte.

    Un restaurant inoubliable avec un service 5* à la hauteur de l’hôtel qui l’héberge. Menu 5 plats que nous recommandons. Un personnel aux petits soins. Un vrai coup de cœur culinaire et humain. Merci à l’équipe et au chef
