To begin your eating experience, start with an appetizer out of the ordinary.  Escargot, or Sesame and Coriander Tuna will wake up your taste buds.  For lunch, try a dish of Wild Mushroom Ravioli served with pesto, goat cheese, and red bell pepper puree or an Angus Sirloin, grilled with herb butter.

Dinner offers crusted Crab Sole, Grilled a Double Cut Pork Chop or Veal Milanese, to name a few. Top it all off with desserts that will surely make your month water. For a lighter fare try one of their soups and/or salads enough to satisfy your hunger. There is never a shortage of choices.
