We concur with this upmarket deli-cafe's name: 'taste and enjoy'. Come for lunch or a casual dinner and sample the region's best produce (which is also available from the deli counter) and a carefully selected wine list. A summer salad of beets and 40°C cured salmon is a riot of colour; an open sandwich of pulled beef and coleslaw is a revelation.
