Notes

Menu changes nightly with the market. Allergens and dietary preferences handled at booking — tell us honestly and we will cook honestly. No à la carte. Whole table tasting only.

Wine

Pairing of five glasses, mostly low-intervention, poured alongside. Also by the glass and bottle. We keep the list short and drinkable.
