The tranquil eatery is dimly lit, a contrast to the mall. The best seats are by the counter where the chefs interact with the guests. Only tasting menus are served; for lunch, choose between a four- or six-course menu. Recent dishes have included Caldoso rice with abalone and chorizo, and lobster with olives and shio kombu.
