01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
From the appetisers to dessert, the courses make thoughtful use of vegetables. One diner reports enjoying a salad with leafy greens, aubergine, winter melon, cucumber and tomato, as well as beetroot soup. On that visit, the restaurant also accommodated a vegetable-focused meal in place of the fish course: grated lotus root, pan-fried and served with egg. For anyone considering a meal centred on vegetables, BISTRO EL GINO is worth keeping in mind as a place to ask about the course options.
The listed lunch courses include a combination of fish and meat, fish paired with grilled Omi beef, and the chef’s recommended full course. Choose between a mix of fish and meat or Omi beef as the centrepiece. Another lunch diner found the dishes made with local vegetables gently seasoned. They also noted a touch of yuzu in the butterbur soup, suggesting there are small details to discover in each dish that bring out the vegetables’ character.
For dinner, the listed options include a full course featuring premium ingredients and the chef’s recommended full course, with grilled Omi beef as the main. Wine is also available to enjoy alongside the courses. Reservations can be made for both lunch and dinner, and are recommended.
