Candide offers an exceptional dining experience with inventive, fresh, and delectable cuisine. The use of locally sourced and seasonal ingredients is evident in each dish. The friendly, knowledgeable staff provides impeccable service, ensuring a pleasant atmosphere. The snow crab and mushroom starters are exquisite, while the cod, lamb, and arctic char mains satisfy every diner. The parsnip in tomato sauce appetizer stands out, and the honey dessert paired with honey wine is a true highlight. The unlimited, excellent bread is a bonus. Chef John Winter Russel's curated prix fixe menu showcases his Michelin-star level expertise, highlighting the restaurant's commitment to quality, locally-sourced ingredients and well-executed cuisine. The restaurant's location and charming outdoor terrace, surrounded by herbs grown on-site and fairy lights, create a beautiful setting. The tasting menu caters to various dietary needs, including vegetarian and dairy-free options, and the portion sizes are perfectly curated by experts, not too big or small. Candide is a must-visit destination for both locals and tourists, offering a memorable culinary experience with great service, a lovely ambiance, and a focus on farm-to-food principles.
