For something more substantial, there's pancakes filled with meat, béchamel and tomato sauce, trout and prawns in white wine sauce, fillets of chicken in lemon sauce, veal topped with ham, sage and wine and marinated lamb steak in olive oil, garlic and herbs. The grill delivers choices of fillet steak, lamb cutlets, baby chicken, Dover sole and salmon steak. Round off with chocolate ice cream bomb, profiteroles filled with Chantilly cream or homemade tiramisu.
