🇫🇷A Lovely French Bistro 法式抵食午市套餐🇫🇷—————Three Courses for HKD 198, available even on Saturdays, definitely worth trying!🐚Starters: Clams in Shellfish Broth, White Wine and Leeks (for 2)A light, easy starter, perfect for sharing! The broth goes perfectly with the clams, fresh and well seasoned, a great way to kick off your meal.

🇫🇷A Lovely French Bistro 法式抵食午市套餐🇫🇷
—————
Three Courses for HKD 198, available even on Saturdays, definitely worth trying!
🐚Starters: Clams in Shellfish Broth, White Wine and Leeks (for 2)
A light, easy starter, perfect for sharing! The broth goes perfectly with the clams, fresh and well seasoned, a great way to kick off your meal. The seasoning was a tad on the heavier side, regardless, highly recommend 👍🏻 Would also suggest dipping the bread into the broth for some extra goodness!
🦐 Starter: Grilled Prawns
This was not on the menu and we managed to secure their final plate before they ran out, and needless to say, it was definitely worth the rush! Fresh, well seasoned and cooked to perfection, love that briny sweetness and bouncy texture, recommend!
🦆 Starter: Homemade Duck Rillette on Toast
This is similar to pulled duck meat served with toast. Given how fragrant it was, the duck meat was probably cooked in a generous amount of duck fat and its flavours reminded me of that iconic duck confit sandwich I used to get every time I went to borough market in London! Served with a very crispy toast, a relatively heavier starter for a hungry day 😎
🐠 Main: Seabass in papillote with lemon, tomatoes and leeks
The fish was cooked by wrapping it in a piece of parchment paper to create a steaming effect. The meat was juicy and tender, with a buttery lemon sauce. Wouldn’t call it a healthy dish given the amount of butter used, but delicious regardless!
🐓 Main: Moroccan Roasted Chicken with Potatoes and Haricots
Their roasted chicken was cooked to perfection! Incredibly juicy and tender, it was definitely a winner! And just look at those beautiful golden potatoes! Highly recommend!
🦞 Main: Maine Lobster Linguine with Shellfish Bisque Sauce (add HKD 60)
Love the briny, fresh, sweet flavour of the shellfish bisque sauce, a nice change from the typical lobster bisque. The lobster meat has a bouncy texture and pasta was al dente (A little too hard and chewy for my liking though). Definitely worth trying as part of their lunch set, way cheaper than a la carte!
🐖 Main: Grilled Hokkaido Pork Loin, seasonal vegetables (add HKD 60)
This was my favourite among all the other mains, the pork loin was incredibly juicy and tender, with a lovely smokey grilled flavour!🥰Worth paying extra for! It doesn’t come with any carbs though, so might not be enough for a guy🙈
🧁Dessert: Freshly Baked Madeleines, Chocolate Mousse
This was amazing!! Their madeleines are served fresh out of the oven, with a slightly crispy exterior and that light, fluffy texture with a touch of citrus flavour from the lemon zest, I was totally blown away! It came with a dark chocolate mousse with hints of tangy bitterness, I absolutely loved!
I started with the madeleine first, and ate spoonfuls of chocolate mousse in between, it was heavenly!🥰
🍨Dessert: Profiteroles with Vanilla Ice Cream
Profiteroles with ice cream is so much better than with plain whipped cream. It was served with a chocolate sauce on the side, way sweeter than the dark chocolate mousse and way too sweet eaten on its own, but perfect for a drizzle on the profiteroles! Still prefer the madeleines though, coming next!🙈
