Can’t disagree with all the great reviews of this place. Never disappoints each time we visit. Thanks goes out to the colleague who gave us a treat here today.

Took the challenge and tried the US Grain-fed XL Ribeye this time round – all 400+ grams of it! As advertised, it is fattier around the edges than the regular Aussie ribeye, but ironically seems a bit firmer/sinewy too. Not that it was bad at all, just that the previous cuts of Aussie ribeye had better marbling throughout. If you have a small appetite, you might want to share this with someone.

The dessert menu has finally expanded to a respectable size, with about 10 choices now. The Peach Melba was two scoops of (terrific!) vanilla bean ice cream, raspberry sauce and peach slices. Simple but oh-so-satisfying, and enough for two especially if you’ve taken a refill of fries.

Overall a great meal, let down only by the service. The servers don’t speak very good English, which isn’t a crime, but getting through to them can be a pain (even making my reservation took more explaining than usual). The servers look perpetually lost, and product knowledge is poor (they couldn’t tell me if the Prime Rib came with a bone-in, or boneless), or perhaps they didn’t understand.

I’m probably nit-picking, as there is likely nowhere else in Singapore that you can get a steak frites this good, at this price. And with the new desserts, the menu is complete. This remains among the top places when I’m looking for something relatively casual and yet indulgent.

Hohoho! time to catch up on my reviews, haha! Too busy over last few months letting bf chase me! =P

Bf gave in to my huge fries craving some months back....found this place on hgw and haha, our greed got the better of us after reading the reviews! (:

sure enough, the steaks are good! charred outside, juicy inside, me no steak expert but wow, this really tasted good. and fries fries fries very well done....good thing we are young and can eat non-stop...poor restaurant...haha!

service also good, restaurant a bit squeezy but overall nice ambiance, cannot complain. (:

Bf very kind, know that lao niang got no money, so gave treat...haha! But I think around $35 per person if you order the steak and unlimited fries....no need to say unlimited, that is auto when you order I think

I have been to this place quite a few times now. And the standard has always been good.

Small restaurant so I would recommend making a reservation even on a weeknight.

You have to be a "moo" lover to enjoy this place...cos they are famous for their ribeye steak with free flow fries.

For about $33, you get a nice warm bread roll, a garden salad with a mustard dressing, a decent size ribeye steak with free flow fries.

I tried their house wine the last time i was there, and it was actually not too bad!

Overall a good experience. Fantastic place to catchup with friends or to go on a date :).

I have a more detailed post here http://vanessafrida.livejournal.com/184516.html

Quiet bistro and a no frills menu.

The bread served tasted like Delifrance's (not sarcasm, but bunnies live on Delifrance baguette rolls).

Great president butter - creamy and thick - good for smearing loads on the crusty baguette rolls.

We have got huge piece of rib eye and mountainous (re-fillable too) french fries on the plate to grease our belly.

Good value for the hungry soul.

I was recently seized out of the blue by a craving for beef after a "cold tipoff" which brought me down to Les Bouchons (7 Ann Siang Road, tel : 6423 0737). Since the last visit which was some time back, the menu has gone through some small changes. The price of the cote de beouf has gone up a little (it's now $40 per pax), but is still good value for money in comparison to other French diners that serve it. Previously the steak options were lesser and being me, I didn't think I would pass on the previously unavailable XL US beef ribeye ($42) which the server said was estimated at 400g and would be fattier than the standard ribeye option where the meat comes from Australia or New Zealand. Tenderloin lovers get lovin as well in the form of their enlarged beef fillet ($34) option.

the ribeye was the only thing that's on the plate. It turned out to be as large (yes!) as the server had mentioned and the fries had to go on a separate basket. The meat was fatty as claimed, but were also sinewy in certain parts and wasn't as juicy as I had expected. At the back of my mind, I was actually envisioning something else. I had to let go of some of the fat as there was certainly quite a bit of it and my conscience refused to let me ingest them all. Lol.

Despite being less juicy than I had hoped for, I felt that the tenderloin scored quite a bit being every bit and bite as tender as one would expect of the cut. It was leaner and slightly less flavorful than the ribeye, and turned out to be very enjoyable. It was probably is one of the larger cuts I had of them.

There isn't very much of variety in the department of desserts in Les Bouchons. Apart from various flavors of ice cream with fruits and preserves, there is actually only the Ile Flottante and a Grand Marnier flavored creme brulee to be had. I didn't exactly recall how it tasted like before eating it this time round since it was quite some time back since I had it. However after the first mouthful of that soft wobbly egg white in the caramel milk, the memories of it came steadily back. This stuff is rather light and breaks apart in your mouth more easily than foie gras. The sliced almonds were toasted which added a depth of crunch and fragrance.
