Restaurant Session (in Strasbourg, France): Les Funambules

In the end of July, we went to Strasbourg for the 50s birthday (surprise) party of a friend of Roger. The party was in the evening, so we arrived around noon to the town, went for lunch, check-in in our hotel and then party time😊

Restaurant Les Funambules✨ from chef Guillaume Besson.

 

The restaurant from inside. 

 

I liked the design of the menu cover. 

 

With the aperitif, bread and a little bite.

 

The amuse bouche. 

 

Our first dish: mackerel fillet lightly seared, cherry tomatoes marinated in olive oil. Red currants, tomate water and bell peppers sorbet.
