Nice wine list. 11/13/2006

My husband and I went there recently for a romantic dinner! We 10 minutes bit late for our appointment, it was a Friday night, so maybe that's why we ended up in ""Siberia"". Anyway, menu. We both chose the appetizer with the white asparagus. Being European, these things are only on the market from May to June and are considered a delicacy when cooked with ham, melted butter and boiled egg. These asparagus were RAW, and therefore quiet tasteless and not the slightly salty, soft, melt in your mouth stuff that I was expecting. I just ate the prosciutto and salad that came with it. My husband ate it all, but then he would! For our main course he had the pasta with lots of wild mushtrooms and cream. This was delicious (I finished his plate for him) and it come in 2 sizes: appetirzer or main course - or ""entree"" as they call it in this country.\r I am doing this silly thing trying to avoid to many carbs, so I had the seafood / fish soup dish. The mussels were overcooked, as were the clams and I think the clams were frozen. Also, the soup needed a lot more garlic and other herbs, as it tasted quite bland to me. I didn't like the fish in it. For dessert we shared the vanilla icecream with strawberries and a balsamic reduction. The strawberries were actually 3 slices of half a strawberry. The ice cream was a good quality, though and the balsamic reduction was good. The staff (apart from the snooty hostess) was very nice and helpful and they tend to be everywhere in this country. I would go there again, but I was a bit disappointed, maybe because my expectations were too high. So 7 out of 10.\r \r more
