you will note that dinners have been switched to Wednesday; as nobody really protested moving dinner back to Wednesday come March, I'm doing it... watch me.

This one is slightly more expensive than the last one - but not too much I think, I will find that unholy balance eventually

($17 per person)

In keeping with season (and some people's religion - which is part of the season -- not that you need a particular season for fish), there is again no meat, so:

• Carpaccio of Beets

Orange-Walnut dressing, Arugula

• Oyster

Ginger Gelatine, Steelhead Roe, Beer Foam



• White Asparagus Soup


• Salmon

• Manchego Transparency

Olive Oil, Roast Garlic, Roast Peppers, Sourdough, Niçoise Olives

Yes, we will be eating so much meat come April 5th...
