LATM Recommendations: White Truffle from Piemont Region consisting of blown out pizza dough topped with sweet onions and a quail egg yolk. The Brittany lobster tail sautéed with a coral sauce and paired alongside tarragon and crispy egg flavored stuffed gnocchi’s. The Brittany scallops, served with orange perfumed chicory nuts and black trumpet mushroom then sliced in tartare upon spelt risotto with squid ink and autumn truffle. Magnifique!

La Création: The chefs unique version of a lemon tart that is something we can pretty much guarantee you haven’t seen before and is truly artistic perfection. Le meilleur dessert jamais (the best dessert ever) as the French say and we couldn’t agree more!
