The moreish menu runs to irresistible snacks like dates stuffed with blue cheese and country ham, cheese gougères, and frites with smoked whisky ketchup, and skewers, which include maitake mushrooms with black-garlic glaze and pork belly with rosemary maple glaze and pear.
Main courses are easily shared and include a superb spaghetti with yuzu (the Japanese citrus fruit), scallop crudo with chilli lemon vinaigrette and persimmon relish, and duck with fennel and charred grapes. Charming service, reasonable prices and a great location on the edge of NoMad, the trendiest neighbourhood in Midtown Manhattan, make this an excellent choice for a light but memorable meal.
