Editor's Review

There's a lot to like about this very chic and relaxed brunch, and it kicks off with a light peruse of the cold starters, with picnic basket in tow. The salmon mousse and couscous salad are great to start with, alongside the freshly baked sourdough baguettes with salted butter. A few curls of bresaola and onion chutney join in for the party, and there's even fresh oysters if you really want to get into the maritime spirit.

Mains is another sharing affair, with a grilled platter of lamb, chicken, fish, and shrimps to pair with roasted vegetables, green salad, and fried potatoes. The inviting mound of local burrata atop heirloom tomatoes is one you have to dive into, mopped up with more baguette slices. Dessert does not disappoint either, with the molten dark chocolate cake being the standout favorite from the table. There's also a miniature lemon meringue pie and a superbly crafted fresh raspberry tart if you'd like something more on the sharper side to wrap up your meal, paired with some of the excellent cocktails and wines on offer.
