Jaan
A meal at Jaan makes one stop and pause for reflection. Course after course of contemporary French cuisine combines flavours and textures, not to mention presentation, that excite and dazzle without being so cutting-edge that they fall over the precipice. Foam, de rigeur in today’s restaurants, is used sparingly and only when it really does accent a particular flavour. At Jaan these contemporary twists succeed because they are based on a strong foundation of classic French dishes and techniques – it’s like when Karl Lagerfeld went to work at Channel.
Add Jaan’s impressive wine list and excellent service to such superb food and one can’t help but be seriously impressed. The experience of a meal really should be this good.
