The hotel's gourmet restaurant, La Salle à Manger, is in the image of the hotel, for it subtly blends the traditional and the modern. The period furniture and crystal chandeliers, wide drapes and high ceilings give an inkling of what's soon to come: duck foie gras, cepe and girolle mushrooms, fine Charolais steaks or lamb from the Limousin region. The menu is built on classical dishes made from the best the French countryside has to offer. Chef Philip Delahaye uses this structure as starting point, and goes on to renew and enliven the classics with creative touches of his own, just the right amounts of su-drenched herbs, vegetable stocks and exotic spices. For example, he accompanies his panfried bass and crab with an orange and fresh coriander bouillon, and uses a bit of lemon rind to enliven the mussels surrounding his sole filets and roasted gambas with taggiasche olives. Simply delicious.... | |
