About this place
The Layered Lunch stacks salad, seasonal vegetables, oeuf mayonnaise, soup and house-made bread across three tiers. Instead of choosing a single dish, you can enjoy a little of a vegetable-focused meal at a time, with seasonal dressings and sauces to vary the flavours as you go. One diner reported finding grilled root vegetables and leafy greens, salad, bread and soup arranged on the different levels. They also enjoyed the grape-based dressing, which offered a different taste from a more tangy dressing. Opening each tier of the box-like serving dish is part of the pleasure.
For a more substantial lunch, there is a bone-in chicken confit. The menu pairs chicken slowly confited at a low temperature with green salad, grilled seasonal vegetables, sweet potato purée, wholegrain mustard and house-made bread. One diner described the meat as tender enough to fall apart.
In the evening, you can choose a wine to enjoy alongside an assortment of starters. One report of the platter mentions pâté de campagne, hummus and chilled tomato-and-basil potage, a selection that was said to go well with wine. The bistro serves natural wines, and one diner asked for a recommendation to suit their tastes. Some also stop by for the carrot cake. Whether you are after a leisurely dinner with wine and small plates or a lunchtime visit for a plate, there are different ways to enjoy a meal here.
