Although not a frequent patron, it's very pleasant to be called by one's first name - especially by an employee, I barely recognise. (I never have been very good at remembering people who don't owe me money) I have been here before with my blonde boss, a frequent patron who is received most graciously. Perhaps the connection to her was the catalyst. As well as this pleasantry, my stop off for a late impromptu lunch was remarkably agreeable. The French onion soup was very good, but there could have been an improvement with the croutons - a minor matter. The Seabream that followed, however, was superb. Compliments to the chef. All this washed down with a large glass of very acceptable Muscadet. Service was gracious, I complimented Louise W on an excellent presentation of 'l'addition' - An observation on this last item. I really do prefer to leave the 'ServiceCharge' or the tip as I would rather call it, at my own discretion, rather than an arbitrary imposition - however, it does declare that these are indeed emoluments for the staff, which is reassuring. Overall, it was a very pleasant lunch in salubrious surroundings.
