In stark contrast to the century-old façade, the interior juxtaposes local serpentine stone and cypress wood for a sleek, Nordic vibe. The owner remodelled the family manor she inherited and manages the business; her partner, who received formal training in France, helms the kitchen. The menu showcases local ingredients such as Muscovy duck or glue berries into culinary gems using European techniques. To honour the family's roots in poultry farming, the menu includes a signature egg dish that celebrates their history.
