1876 Daniel Dal-Ben

At his chic and elegant little restaurant located by the zoo, Daniel Dal-Ben serves up classic cuisine with a judicious touch of creativity. In addition to Italian and French influences, he also incorporates the odd Japanese twist. This winning combination creates interesting contrasts and a harmonious sense of balance in dishes such as langoustine from Norway, kohlrabi and wasabi. The ingredients are top notch. A five-course tasting menu is proposed, with the "Cicchetti 1876" as a must-try appetiser. Allow plenty of time, as you may be treated to additional courses. Beyond the terrific food, the atmosphere is inviting and almost intimate. Slightly elevated and set back from the street, the terrace is a delightful spot. Attentive and well-trained front-of-house team.
