in the last weekI have this restaurant saved as a backup dinner option, which turned out to be Michelin Restaurant. There were still tables available around 5 o'clock for 6pm, so I made a reservation right away. By 6 o'clock, the kitchen wasn't ready yet and had to sit outside for an additional ten minutes. The waiter was quite friendly. 🥩 Raw beef tata is fresh but quite salty. The mustard seeds have a nice texture. 🐮Red wine stewed with ox tail; originally planned to order mushroom risotto, but the waiter recommended the ox tail. It's also on the saltier side; the white cream sauce tastes good. Some side dishes are pickled, and it's pretty good. 🦆The most famous duck rice is also slightly salty and on the wetter side. Rice was cooked to al dente. The duck meat was shredded, and the scent of orange peel is quite distinctive. We also ordered a cup of coffee and a sugar-free cola, and didn't eat the bread on the table. Two people checked out for €66.66, plus a 10% service fee (seemingly optional), over €70. The first bill was incorrectly written, an extra coffee was added. There's no need to go if you have time to try something new.
