Immense expectations visiting this place! 3 michelin starred restaurant!! Boy were we expected coming to this place! We weren't exactly dressed in the most appropriate way for a restaurant of this calibre, but none of the other patrons were in blazers and suits and what-nots as well, so we didn't feel too out of place! Had been craving for a good burger for a long, long time and i really hoped to satisfy that craving here, especially after the reviews i heard about this place! We were still slig
Had been craving for a good burger for a long, long time and i really hoped to satisfy that craving here, especially after the reviews i heard about this place! We were still slightly full, and were gonna get plenty more grub after this stop, so we were merely gonna just get one burger for the both of us. I am a huge fan of foie gras, and thus, we were definitely going to get the rossini($28). We also went for the truffle fries and had to top up $3.
There was a guy walking around and talking to the customers and i would guess that he was Bruno Menard but we didn't get a confirmation. I didn't really feel at ease in this place because all the waiters seemed to give us a look. I don't know if it is because i'm too sensitive but they seemed to mind that we weren't exactly ordering a lot and spending lotsa money. Nonetheless, we weren't going to let this affect our night and our dinner! The burger came after a short wait and we couldn't wait to dig in! I cut a small piece of the dry aged beef patty to try first and it wasn't very amazing so i was quite disappointed! It couldn't compare to the one i had @ Prive a couple months back! The patty was really juicy! However, when i cut into the foie gras and put it into my mouth, i was brought to heaven! And they were extremely generous to give such a huge, fat piece! It was exceptionally creamy and smooth! Just like a knob of butter! Although the beef wasn't fantastic, when paired together with the foie gras, it was truly a match made in heaven! I truly enjoyed every mouth i had.
There was a tinge of truffle oil on every single fry, and yet the smell wasn't overpowering! I would definitely be back again for the burger although i hope that the people there would be more friendly the next time i'm there!
