Enjoy the whimsical decor of this artsy oasis while tucking into dishes brimming with seasonal and local ingredients, named after jazz greats. If you're lucky you may stumble upon a poetry reading, theatre performance or stand-up comedy show. You can even stay the night in the upstairs rooms, where Casanova seduced a local lady in the 1740s.
