Irish Coffee & Creme Brulee!
The chef is Mediterranean who grew up in South of France which shows freshness of ingredients and traditional French techniques were seen through out my dinner here.
The most memorable dishes are the Lobster Bisque and Grilled Bone Marrow
Its been a while that I had such intensely cooked down lobster bisque, the crustaceans flavor just fill the entire bowl! As for the Bone Marrow, its like melting butter in my mouth, If I didn't have to watch what I eat, I would for sure go for second serving of the giant slab of bone!
Another highlight of the meal is the Veal sweet breads! A good French cuisine is a good sauce that can supplement the star of the dish! It was really good!
The beef steak was perfect too! with grilled vegetables & deep fried hand cut chips!
The dinner was finished off with Irish Coffee and Creme Brulee!
Vanilla seeds were seen dotting all over the creme brulee thats a good sign of fresh vanilla were used!
The restaurant is quaint, even the chef attends to his customer himself!
Great dinner here in the city centre of Antwerp.
