The Verdict
"Book the chef's tasting menu two to four weeks ahead via Tock. The Foie Gras Truffled Beggar's Purse is the dish. Two Michelin stars and a converted chapel dining room."
What you need to know
The Food
Tasting menus run three, four, or five courses with an extended chef’s tasting available. The signature dish is the Foie Gras Truffled Beggar’s Purse, a delicate pasta pocket that has been on the menu for decades. Squab, lamb, and seasonal handmade pastas anchor the longer menus.
The wine cellar holds over 1,800 selections with particular depth in aged Italian reds. The cheese cart is its own attraction.
