EDWINS is always fantastic. Great food, excellent service, pleasant atmosphere. Our group had seafood sausage, foie gras, butternut squash salad, and frog legs for starters. We had the ribeye steak, le Burger, mushroom ravioli, and half duck a la orange for our main courses. We shared an excellent bottle of Chinon and of Muolin-a-Vent with our meals. Everything was excellent!
