The amuse bouche got us excited an excellent white parsnip creamed soup. We both ordered the 3 course menu: the entree...was overcooked tuna served on a nice vegetable pepperade and the plat was stuffed wild boar, which was a nice piece of meat but not very interesting. My dessert was chocolate mousse tart but the tart was inedible. My husbands dessert was good a Pain Perdu (French toast) with some nice things on it. Overall a quite disappointing meal especially compared to the last time we were here. The saving grace is the beautiful situation looking out to the sheep pasture with the lambs running and playing, and onto the mountains. There was only one other couple in the restaurant the entire 2 hour lunch time we where there and unfortunately maybe there's good reason for that.
