Mat og vin er av ypperste kvalitet, tilberedt og servert med omtanke og stolthet. Filosofien er at alt skal lages mest mulig fra bunnen av: kraft sauser, supper, brød, deserter og sjokoladekonfekt. Kjøkkenet er viden kjent, og i dypet av kjelleren venter 7500 flasker årgangsvin. Perfekt for en romantisk aften for to, eller en hyggelig middag med gode venner.
