Winter Resonances

Awakening of the Senses

 

A Gourmet Journey Between Sea and Land

An Invitation to the Ballet of Flavours

Essence of the Ocean

 

Pan-seared Skrei, accompanied by a langoustine tartare, elevated by a light coconut emulsion, crispy capers and panko; a delicate balance of textures and flavours where the finesse of Norway’s winter fish meets the freshness of shellfish, apple chutney with mustard seeds and yuzu.

The menu is accompanied by our home-made bread and delicately scented house-made butter

 

Garden Breeze

Thai basil sorbet and infused raspberries, subtly perfumed

a light and refreshing interlude preparing the palate for the course to follow

Awakening of Winter Flavours

Duo of venison (M. Bulfoni, Gers), slow-cooked at low temperature, cinnamon blossom and juniper jus, marinated loganberries, red cabbage with orange and a hint of ginger (sous-vide), airy vanilla-scented celeriac cream, toasted hazelnut shards.

 

Winter Velvet

 

Spiced Sweetness & Candied Cherries

 

An exquisitely delicate speculoos parfait, Madiran-candied cherries enhanced by a carefully selected bouquet of spices. The speculoos crunch adds contrast and texture, while warm, deep notes envelop the palate in an elegant sensation of winter comfort.

 

or

 

Gluten-free poppy seed and almond moelleux, apricot and bitter orange glaze, caramelised almonds, raspberries delicately marinated in honey and sweet spices, light Chantilly, smoked orange blossom ice cream infused with cardamom.
