    We started with drinks next store at Canard and then sat at the Counter in Le Pigeon. We enjoyed watching the food prep. We tried everything: the vegetarian menu, the omnivore menu, the reserve wine pairings and the non-alcoholic pairings. We're always impressed with the wine pairings but were really surprised by how good the non-alcoholic pairings were. The menus come with an additional supplemental dish--definitely get the extra dish. This is our favorite restaurant for celebrations and we had a great dinner!

    Elegant, lovely dining experience upstairs, overlooking the ground floor guests. The delectables were beautifully displayed and yummy. The tea selection and service were good. It was a memorable, fun moment spent with my daughter. Great way to end a year and start the new!
