I guess Bukit timah is the place to be in.
I wanted some good french food so i decided to head down to Greenwood Avenue.
From the famed Les Amis group of restaurants hails another jewel in its crown:
Sebastien's Bistrot. Sitting pretty along a row of eateries along Greenwood Avenue , this 5-year-old, more down-to-earth cousin to the better-known Les Amis and Au Jardin exudes a friendly, welcoming feel.
Frequented by locals and expatriates alike, Sebastien's is an ideal spot for a hearty French meal without the frills of fine dining.
I made a reservation at 7pm at Sebastien's few day ahead and we reached punctually that night.
The restuarant was pretty empty that moment when i stepped in
but i wasnt afraid that it might be a bad restaurant. The ambience totally comforted me the moment i went in.
A quaint old-world feel, and it is not hard to imagine yourself in Paris when dining in the courtyard in the recesses of the restaurant. Cheery French folk-tunes are the music of choice, while the voices of the French expatriates at the next table will further authenticate your dining experience.
Dim lights, rustic tables settings. For one moment i thought to myself i was out of singapore.
Shortly after my entrees came the restaurant is slowly packed up with diners.
The moment we got in, the staffs took us to our seats and served 6slices of rustic bread with lotsa butter.
3 slices of wholemeal and 3 slices of whitebread.
They have a bread counter at the centre of the restaurant where the servers cut all the fresh bread.
The restaurant have a open bar and a small area where they sell lots of wine.
We ordered french onion soup, cheese souffle, escargots and lastly the main we had stewed beef with mashed potato.
The food may not be presented well, to my surprise once it was put in my mouth,i found myself saying that its nice.
Everything tasted pretty nice. I have not visited that many french restuarant but i can say the food served here is all nice.
We completed the dinner with Sebastien's house Champange and their desert.
The champagne really surprised me as i didnt expect their own champagne to be that good.
It's really does sparkles to the ladies.
We had our usual creme brulee.
Again, the creme brulee is better than those in chocolate factory.
It seems like the creme brulees that i ate, one gets better than the other.
A refreshing change from the usually somewhat intimidating French dining experience,
feel free to bring your friends and family to this homely eatery for a touch of France right in Singapore.
