    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed a 3 course lunch. We ordered 2 small plates to share; the beef ravioli and the chicken dumplings. The ravioli was not what I expected, it was constructed more like a crepe. It was delicious. The dumplings were more traditional and were also delicious. Both small plate portions were very generous and even though we were sharing, we brought home leftovers. For our next course, we both ordered chicken curry. It was perfectly seasoned, not too hot and with lots of vegetables. We both loved it, however, were a little surprised that this portion was not as generous as the small plates. For dessert, we shared an apple tartin. The apples were beautifully caramelized and the pastry had a sweet surprise. The vanilla ice cream was the perfect accompaniment. We had a lovely meal in a beautiful room. We will definitely return again.
