What a wonderful experience. Not only was the food exceptional, but we all thoroughly enjoyed learning and experiencing the truffle hunt. Today, the weather was exceptional, which meant we could dine outside under the trees. A truly lovely experience. Taylor, front of house was impressive; pleasant disposition, knowledgeable , good humoured , but not hovering.
