Apparently the restaurant has been around for 30+ years and was the first Michelin vegetarian restaurant in Europe! We picked the Zenith menu. All the dishes had a blend of East Asian and Western European ingredients and flavors. The highlights for us were the risotto, strawberry and tomato gazpacho, and mushroom. They also offer amazing freshly baked sourdough bread and kept replenishing it. The desserts were also good just not as memorable. The oat milk cafe latte was lovely but there was a slight confusion among the servers so the timing did not match well with the desserts. We particularly appreciated their attention to detail for my husband 's dietary restriction. The chef came out to confirm his restrictions to refined sugar. Overall highly recommend for a special evening!

The waiter took time to present how the menu works and let us choose the best choice for us. We chose the 6 course menu with wine pairing. The different flavors and combinations were great. The wine pairing was good as well. At the end of our dinner, the chef came to our table for a good talk. It is worth trying it.
