A small french restaurant that is being recommended by the newspaper which tempted me to go try on. The table seating is very limited, only about 10-15 person capacity in the room and 20 person outside, so you better reserve a table first before going. And most of the customers are couples or young family, so it's a hot place for dating i guess. No service charge and tax is included, so dont expect much from the service staff. And you gotta go to the counter and order yourselves and take your own sky juice even the shop is so small and squeezy.
foie gras w orange emulsion and fresh salad $18.50
the first ever time i tried foie gras (fattened duck liver) or known as the most popular delicacy French cuisine! The texture is a bit like fats but not sickening, soft inside like tofu and panfried till fragrant and crispy outside. The gravy given is very nice, with the orange peel skin and sauce that gives some fresh sourish taste on the foie gras, and create the appetizing feeling on me. The salad is very appetizing too, with sour dressing it is a really fascinating and awesome entree!
Potato leek soup $3.50
The soup of the day is potato leek soup and tomato soup and i ordered the potato leek. The soup is served in a shallow plate-like container which looks deep but very shallow only. So it also means that the soup portion is quite few and pathetics. the bread is a bit dry and hard but goes well with the soup.
Confit de carnade (comes with the gratin) $16.50
The duck leg steak is nice, they cooked till very soft and easy to chew on, and the gravy (brown sauce) is also very nice. The gratin is made up of sliced potatoes and cream and baked till golden colour with the cheese on top.
Sirloin steak $16.50
The sirloin is actually only two small pieces of meat that is panfried till a bit too over ad because it's too dry and not nice. The sauce given is only the mustard sauce so i think it's quite not sincere enough to serve it. And the frites are also too over cooked so it becomes quite soggy and oily.
