KCC La Vie en Rose
If there was ever a restaurant that was made for summer, it's
La Vie en Rose. This place has a menu fitted for summer dining on the lawn in a 60's dress with the girls. We are talking high teas and canapé's for events and an a la carte menu filled with light meals for dining out. The setting compromises pristine white linen on the patio under the shady trees. This is the epitome of summer love.
