Glories past have faded

Scrumptious entrées and plats, refined desserts, but service has declined since Pierre Wijnants took leave of his toque and his wife turned over the running of the Salle. The wine list is lengthy and justly renowned, but the sommelier was obviously not interested in helping us choose. The salle is pleasant, if a bit yightly packed. When time came for choosing a dessert wine, not only was there no advice, but we had to flag down a passing waiter to even see the list. Perhaps this is a teething problem, but one expects more when paying €100 per person for a meal.
