A large klok (clock) and jaunty black-and-white awning signal this restaurant's presence on one of the town's major foodie strips. The menu is resolutely European, drawing on the cuisines of countries including Belgium, France, Spain, Italy and Sweden to devise a small but very tasty seasonal menu. Diners can order à la carte or opt for the well-priced set menu.
