The restaurant week's menu was attractive with good choices at La Parole. You are each given three choices for appetisers and mains and two choices for desserts.
The amuse bouche was a very petite canapé of tuna and tomato tart with mint leave. Quite a refreshing start.Bread Basket
La Parole's bread basket was aromatic! I immediately started digging in by taking a raisin bread. The raisin bread was soft with crunchy rim and had a chocolaty taste with it.
Lobster Salad with PeachThe salad is a mix of chopped lobster and peach with slices of peach at the top. My lobster's portion was good and there was a balanced taste between the fresh juicy lobster and the sweet peaches. The salad was however not as refreshing as I thought it would be. I regretted not getting the Foie Gras with Cherry.
Truffle Mushroom ConsommeThe dish came in devilishly aromatic with only one slice of winter truffle shaving! There was also some truffle paste at the bottom, but the aroma was mainly from the truffle shaving. The consommé looked oily but wasn't feelingly heavy on the palate. The truffle tasted consommé was an intense flavourable bowl. Delicious!
Grilled Truffle Beef with Tomato and Heart of CarrotThe presentation was colourful and cute with some hearts of carrot. The presentation feels very homey, as I have made this carved carrots at home before lol. The ribeye was in great texture, very succulent and bouncy. Great dish! If it was not my friend's main, I would down it right away.
Milk Lamb with Saffron Sauce and Crushed PotatoesMy milk lamb was marvellous too! The lamb was perfectly grilled to give a crispy charred outer and a juicy, fat melting and tender pink inner. The saffron sauce was a good pair with the lamb but I would want some mint sauce for my lamb as well. The crushed potatoes was quite finely done, so it's more like potato mash, but it was not buttery enough.
Surprise Chocolate BallThe beautifully plated chocolate ball was presented with a whisky flame pour on top. The chocolate shell was made with milk chocolate, covered within was some smooth cream with blueberry jams and a crispy pastry layer at the bottom. Each spoonful was pretty sweet but was balanced by the strong whisky. This was a good dessert to end the night.
Raspberry with Vanilla Custard and Red Fruit SorbetI like my friend's dessert more as it is more refreshing. The beaten egg white was in a marshmallow texture. The vanilla custard was mildly sweet and creamy. The biscuit was buttery and nice!
Macarons was served at last as a little gift from La Parole. The macarons are new products from La Parole which are available for sale in the restaurant. The macaron was quite chewy but the shell was empty and detach from the filling. La Parole's macaron definitely has rooms for improvements.
