All the classic mouth-watering High Cheese dishes will be on offer, but will feature a twist, topping or hint of these magnificent rare fruits that are worth their weight in gold.
Think shaved black truffle added to the baked Le Duc Vacherin with garlic, thyme and wine, served with quinoa, soya and amaranth sourdough. While the showstopping L'Artisan Grand Fleuri brie is layered with sautéed mushrooms and leeks in oloroso sherry, and will be appropriately dressed with fresh black truffle.
For those with a sweet tooth, the already perfect walnut praline Madeleines filled with whipped Marcel Petite Comté will remain on the menu but will be served with fresh black truffle alongside their house-made honeycomb.
