🐇 Sophisticated Flavors: Rabbit and Chestnut Risotto

The risotto is a masterclass in seasonal balance. From the first bite, the fragrant aroma of chestnut fills the senses. The rabbit meat provides a wonderful, firm texture that releases a deep, earthy flavor as you chew. Because the rice is cooked perfectly al dente, it acts as the ideal vessel, absorbing the nuanced richness of the meat and creating a dish that feels both elevated and comforting.

🦌 Exceptional Quality: The Ezo Venison Experience

The Ezo Venison served here is undeniably high-end. I caught a glimpse of this fresh catch on their Instagram story before arriving, and it was a decision I didn’t regret for a second. The meat was remarkably tender—truly melt-in-the-mouth quality. Paired with a selection of wines that feel as calm and balanced as the chefs themselves, the meal felt like a cohesive, thoughtful narrative from start to finish.

💬 Verdict

Le Sur Le Sur isn’t just about the food; it’s about the emotional resonance of the dining experience. It is the perfect spot for those who appreciate quiet, high-quality Italian cuisine away from the tourist rush. I recommend booking this for a relaxed evening when you want to truly savor the synergy between chef and ingredient. I will certainly be returning.
