Food was ok, nothing special. Asparagus ends were coarse. Crispy duck was fine but nothing special. Only thing on the plate was duck and asparagus on a plain plate…. Not very appetizing. Come on, can’t you at least put a slice of orange or parsley sprig on it? Beautiful building, acceptable meal. Sure not rushing back, if ever.
