The talented Sam Lawrence is sure to impress diners at this welcoming restaurant in the heart of Chinatown. The warm, amber-toned dining room possesses the ease and comfort of a bistro, while the kitchen cooks with noteworthy levels of drive and ambition. The tight menu is sparse on words and doesn’t fit neatly into the box of any one cuisine but know that inspiration and originality are in proper supply. Does cured tuna with black trumpet mushrooms and dates work? It sure does. The savory tart filled with a lush Comté custard dressed with creamy morels is a delight. Desserts like the chocolate hazelnut tart, are a thrill, and much like the restaurant, has all the makings of a classic. Service is both relaxed and attentive.
