Both lunch and dinner feature French cuisine. The six course meal features appetizers, side dishes, a main course and dessert all freshly prepared in the restaurant downstairs. The dinner menu also has an extra main dish in addition to the lunch menu. The meals are seasonal and health conscious and are not heavy on the stomach.
