My wife and I went to this small French restaurant for dinner after hearing some very good comments about it. When I reserved I asked for a quiet corner table. When we arrived, we were seated at a corner table just as we requested, which was nice.We ordered a la carte as we find the choices of the set menu too restrictive. Almost everything exceeded our expectations. We ordered:1. frog leg/avacado with crabmeat for appertiser2 both ordered mushroom soup3. duck confit/ pork chop4. apple pieBetwe
We ordered a la carte as we find the choices of the set menu too restrictive. Almost everything exceeded our expectations. We ordered:
1. frog leg/avacado with crabmeat for appertiser
2 both ordered mushroom soup
3. duck confit/ pork chop
4. apple pie
Between the soup and main a lychee serbert was served. This was really good.
Minor issues: 1. mushroom soup too creamy (some guests may prefer it that way)
2. we tried to order soufle, but were told the only flavour available was dark chocolate, which was supposed to be the house specialty, but had to wait for 25 minutes, and were eventyually told that it was not available.
The spending was slightly less than $500 per head ( we did not consume any beverage) which was in my view quite reasonable for the quality of the food and the attention to detail in their preparation.
Also, the milk tea which my wife ordered was Hong Kong style milk tea, which was kind of unusual for western restaurants, but quite thoughtful as many local people prefer this to the lighter tea bag tea. This is another example of attention to detail.
Overall, we are very satisfied with the quality of food and service, and look forward to return soon.
