I had the pleasure of joining a group of friends for a special birthday celebration and WOW ..... what a night it was! From arriving at the beautiful ambient Le Salon we experienced magnificent food (best cheeese souffle ever), great wine selection and all offered with impeccable friendly service. Just when you thought perfect couldn't get better, we were entertained by the magnificent voice of Samantha Leith. Doesn't get much better for me !!
