Elsa - Michelin Gets it RIGHT!

Organic from bread to dessert, ELSA reopens with a richly deserved first Michelin Star. I was at the second service of the year March 6 2014 and it was a sublime symphony of savours! Giving total respect to the Ligurian and Provence bio-produce. I'm sold from the BIO SAMA signature plate of shaved veggies with a pea "guacamole' to the velvet gnocchi served in "Garden" - the magnificent almond soufflé breaks new ground. The setting is exquisite, the service non intrusive but attentive and chef Paola Sari is as deft with asparagus as he is with meat and fish. Elsa also features a superb selection of organic olive oil which adds the zing across the plates with a green astringent pepper kick to the back of the throat, let me tell you it's all good in this garden. This guys rocking the good stuff out the kitchen. The Lunch Menu special in the week at 43 euros is a steal of a deal is it perhaps the best value one star deal on the planet! My prediction is that ELSA will be the Monaco address for the power lunch - all season! (see the photos)
