About

One of the ultimate hip joints in Cannes occupies a waterfront site outfitted like a temple garden in Thailand, complete with lavishly carved doorways, potted and in-ground palms, and hints of the Spice Trade scattered artfully in the out-of-the way corners. Up to 350 diners at a time enjoy their meal either indoors or on a terrace overlooking the twinkling lights of La Croisette; after the dinner service, the place morphs into a dance venue where at least some of the clients might be dancing, in scantily clad giddiness, on the tables. Menu items include Japanese-inspired teppanyaki dishes prepared tableside by a samurai-style chef, as well as French dishes that feature tartare of tuna spread on toasts, crisp ravioli stuffed with shrimp, lobster in citrus sauce with a confit of tomatoes, filet of sea wolf with fennel, and a particularly elegant version of macaroni that's "perfumed" with an essence of lobster. Vegetarians appreciate the availability of such dishes as risotto with green asparagus, broccoli, and fava beans. The name of the restaurant, incidentally, derives from a well in Indonesia with reputed mystical powers.
