No dining experience is more sumptuous than the one at this tiny hotel in Uptown. The fixed-price, seven-course affair is had by reservation only, and it’s wise to book one of the petite restaurant’s tables well in advance. Diners pre-order from the menu, which changes monthly and typically offers such treasures as the appetizer flan holding wild mushrooms and Gruyere cheese.
