Onion soup followed by a pork chop and a pancake for dessert is typical of the set lunch menu.
For example, it offers a set lunch which can be quickly served for those without the luxury of time but who would still like to enjoy a good lunch.
My starter - from the cheapo set lunch at £25 for three courses - was a gorgeously autumnal, saffron-hued pumpkin and sautéed wild mushroom soup that had a potent Parmesan kick, was alluringly velvety in texture and pulled off the rare win double of real delicacy and huge depth of flavour.
