I have always wanted to try this place but couldn't make up my mind on what to have.
The new dinner set menu makes it easier for $300 which includes a starters, mains and dessert.
Here was what we had:

Started off with the baguette which had this really tasty aioli sauce made with anchovies, mayonnaise, paprika, lemon, cayenne pepper, chives.

The sauce was so nice that I ended up having three slices of baguette.

White crab meat with bloody mary sorbet and coriander:
The crab meat was refreshing and prepares you for the coming courses with the cooling yet spicy sweet bloody mary sorbet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
French snails sauteed in garlic butter with parsley puree:
The escargots were soft and tender with a strong buttery taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Classic mussels mariniere with French Fries:
Next had the mussels which were plump and fresh.
The sauce was thick and creamy which was great for dipping the fries.
French mustard also went well with this dish because it made it more appetizing and balanced out the heaviness with a mustard kick.

Cheese of the day with truffle honey and candied Genoble walnuts:
I would have liked different cheeses but it was a big piece of brie which I liked.
The honey truffle provides a new experience for the cheese platter because the sweetness is paired with fragrant and strong tasting truffle.

They also serve brunches too which I shall come back for.
