Fabulous inventive food, great new chef, good service and nice views. We ended up having the most incredible dinner on a Saturday night with very attentive service and exceptional food - a highly inventive menu with subtle flavours, great attention to detail and beautiful presentation. I had the scallops/crab starter with granny smith apples followed by the "Renne" (it's "chasse" season) with all its trimmings very clearly home-made trimmings (frequently not the case in other restaurants) including poached apple, chestnuts, red cabbage (beautifully presented) and some divine potato/pumpkin croquettes with a vanilla sauce, the meat was perfectly cooked, really delicious, good quantities too. The desert was also fabulous, a home-made "cigar" chocolate biscuit filled with a cardamon flavoured cream and chocolate and with a cold "granite", type of sorbet served alongside. The choice on the menu is very varied with lots of meat, fish and also vegetarian options, and a nice wine list. We discovered (because he did a tour of the tables - always a nice touch) that the chef is young, from Martinique originally, has worked in many locations worldwide (hence the very cosmopolitan style to the menu), and has been at the hotel for just 5 months. He is clearly extremely talented and is obviously turning things around, he mentioned that the restaurant is going to be completely re-vamped and made into a more modern bistrot style which is a good idea and will be much more in keeping with his food style. The prices are in line with what you expect in the region, but the creativity of the food and the presentation make this one a winner and the service was great too! It was dark so we couldn't see the views of the lake, but it must be nice eating on the terrace in summer or watching the view over lunch. We shall definitely be back!
