I have been brought to this very nice French Restaurant along Serangoon Road last evening by a business partner of mine. We were unable to meet up with its owner and executive chef - Xavier, as he was at the opening of his new gourmet mart in Sembawang. Disappointed though, but I had made a mental note to come down again to try his authentic Foire Gras and apparently delicious confit of Aubergine (which my good French friend swears by).
But one thing did strike me - the food must be good - because just at opening time - 6pm, 4 of it's tables were filled, and patrons were ordering their wine (even our Indian compatriots enjoy French Cuisine!), enjoying a glass before dinner.
With French Food - what best to go with but only Quality French Wine...again my same French business partner brought us to another of her compatriot's outlet at Evans Road - opened by The Wine Company, ala the same that brought wine to Dempsey Road. The quiet ambience, soothingly and unassumingly laid back decor puts us in an easy relaxed mood. In the day or at night, it is nice to down a bottle or two over there....even if I am in the wine business, we don't always like to drink at home, its just too boring...isn't it?
