visited this place last week based on recommendations here. the amuse was a spoon of orange beet tartare with white truffle oil, very delicate, melt in the mouth sweetness of the beetroot, wasn't too crunchy but had enough texture not to turn into gloop, with the perfect hint of earthy perfume from the oil. gf started with 6 oysters which i thought were bland and the garnishes did nothing for the flavour. i had the charcuterie plate with pork terrine, saucisson, duck salami, chorizo and an iowan prosciutto. this was excellent through the prosciutto seemed to be flecked with chili which could give an unpleasant burning sensation. onto the main courses, my gf went with the duck breast wrapped in prosciutto, she said it was very good but i dont remember much about it so it couldn't have been great. i had the goose leg confit with truffled risotto, lovely wintery flavours, very crisp skin on the goose. risotto was a little watery but a decent amount of truffle flavour to it. as we'd filled up too much we decided against dessert. overall a very nice meal which came in at around $120. i'd like to try the place again and go for more inventive, cooked plates on the appetisers, rather than the cold platters we went for. only complaints would be that the dishes arrived far too soon after each other, whereas we'd have preferred a good 15 mins between starter and main to digest the large amount of charcuterie consumed. also i didnt see an option for carafes or half bottles on the wine list, settled on a glass of sauvignon blanc as i didnt want to ask for anything special (i look young and didnt have my passport on me!) otherwise the service was spot on.
