We all three had parsnip soup to start. A good choice on a cold day. Thick & hot but, in hindsight, I think I could have added a little black pepper.. Three different mains - all good. Two of us requested spoons to finish the delicious sauces on the tagliatelli & in the fish stew. The chocolate orange cheesecake was divine. Very rich.

Restaurant quality food, table service from friendly smiling staff and comfy seating was very welcome, and unexpected from a city overnight. The overall ambience was calm and relaxing and far better than many hotel breakfast services we have experienced.
