Sunday brunch at Issimo. We like the fact that on Sundays you get a 4-course lunch (rmb198) automatically whereas weekdays you can pick between 2 or 3 courses.
Smoked trout starter with tangerine.

Beef and mushroom in filo pastry. It was actually not as nice as it looked/sounded.

My husband's choices from the pasta dishes on the set menu.

I chose gnocci and capellini. They were both excellent.

My husband's tenderloin looked so wonderful I wished I had ordered it instead.

I opted for a plaice dish but it was sold out. I agreed to switch to salmon instead assuming it would be cooked the same way but it came out in a pesto crust. It was nice but a little disappointing as I could have made it at home!

At least the dessert trio made up for my slight disappointment over my salmon. I could have easily eaten another one.
