Cheap and good french food.
16 May 2013I noticed I keep coming back to Upper Thomson Road to try out their food along the stretch of roads. I did notice this small and dingy looking restaurant from across the road.
Read some reviews before decided to give it a try.
Was there with my husband for a romantic night out and I was plesantly surprise by the place (in both a good and bad way).
I was for one not impressed by the deco. It fails to attract customers base on its run down appeal unlike their competitors in the vicinity such as RS Deli and Old School Delight which both have fantastic deco. The tables we sat on was erm very vintage looking and it has a very country appeal (to down play alittle). Not really my cup of tea.
I heard bad review of their service, I have to say we did not receive the 'go the extra mile service' but to me it is passable. The service crew were not warm but they were not rude either so to me I am fine with that. But it does take a while to get their attention even though it was not a very crowded weekday night.
We ordered the DucK Confit and Dory with white wine butter rice and also their Creme Brulee.
Not entirely a duck person but I am so impressed with the crispy duck confit I was actually fighting with my husband over it despite the fact that he ordered it for himself.
My Dory with White Wine Butter Rice was also delicious. The butter rice was especially fragrant and it has a tinge of creaminess in it which I greatly adore. The fish is well marinated and fresh.
The creme brulee was heavenly. I never expect such a rundown looking place can serve such delicious dessert. The slightly burnt taste of the creme brulee was of such decadent notion and a taste of it send me craving for more.
I do recommend people who wants cheap good tasting french food to give it a try.

Their main outlet at Serene centre has received significantly better reviews than this place and I can finally understand why.
Be prepared to receive worse-than-expected service here as the glum-faced servers seemed unhappy to have customers entering their territory. Do not expect them to guide you to your seats or take your orders. Water is self-service.
Dishes which you can only find here includes this Croissant with Escargots (13.50) which came in a satisfying portion despite being an entree. The fluffy warm bread stuffed with big fat chewy escargots was doused in that delicious mushroom garlic gravy! The idea of croissant with escargots is really a wonderful change to the usual garlic and butter type. I am really curious about the escargots here because they are one of the largest I have tried so far.

EXTREMELY RUDE SERVICE!!! Do not patronize!
06 Dec 2012I had the misfortune of visiting this restaurant last weekend.
The service is unacceptable in this place! Unless you enjoy being served by rude and ill-mannered staff, please save your dollar.
