Ambience good, but that's where it ends..., Tuesday, 29 January 2008

I agree with the ambience review below as it pertains to cozy rooms. It was the quietest dinner I ever had in a restaurant in China. But that's where I think the similarities end.

The smoked salmon and chicken dishes I had a stale fridge taste to it, even after cooking. Food was served lukewarm/cold. Place completely empty except for two of us, and the place had stale smell to it (which was a first sign to not eat there, but we ate there anyway). Red wine served chilled.

Feel free to check it out, but I won't be going back.

Cozy,relaxing ambience, Sunday, 29 July 2007

Written by Ioana   -  View all my reviews  - #1 Reviewer

We had an enjoyable dinner at this cozy French restaurant. The place has two floors. Downstairs the décor is simple and elegant .Upstairs also pretty elegant but a bit bold with red being the predominant color. However the dimmed lights and the candle lights make the place quite cozy.All this plus a good selection of french music and you have the perfect setting for a romantic dinner
The menu is both English and Chinese but the selection is not too big (6 appetizers, 8 main courses and 6 desserts).Prices for appetizers range between 38 and 88rmb, main course 58-200 rmb and desserts 38 rmb. We had some lamb, salmon salad, roasted chicken, pork chops. Everything was very tasty other than the chops which were a bit chewy. The portions are French size (small) and therefore ordering an appetizer beside the main course is highly recommended. They also have a few set menus for 1 or 2 persons. Not too many choices of dishes for kids though. No pasta, no pizza not even fries on the menu. However, they were able to customize the menu and cook some fries for our son. The portion they brought was big enough to feed 3 people. Coffee was very good (selection of 6 different types of coffee) and the wine list had a small but good selection of French wines. As for the beer I only saw import beer (18rmb/bottle) but I’m pretty sure they have some domestic ones as well.
Overall the place is quite nice,very promising and we will probably give it another try one day.Maybe by then they will have a larger selection of dishes.I also hope that they will be able to do something about those typical Chinese washrooms.
