Lunch at Au Petit Salut, a wonderful Southern French restaurant at Chip Bee Gardens (just behind Holland Village) today. I had been there a couple of times before, but as E had never eaten there, and today being a public holiday, it was an easy decision to make. We had the set lunch menu at $22+++ per person. I do apologise for the lack of photos, but the camera is temporarily out of action!
Starters: Half dozen baked Burgundy snails with tomato and garlic butter
Mains: Pan-seared "onglet" beef with confit shallots and french fries; Home-made Chicken "cordon bleu" with ham and cheese stuffing and french beans
Desserts: Petit Pot Au Chocolat with fresh whipped cream
Coffee
On the way back to the car we passed by Da Paolo Gastronomia, a gourmet shop, and discovered them making "homemade" pasta! $2.50 per bundle for basic egg pasta, or $3.50 per bundle for herb pasta / spinach pasta / squid ink pasta. This has given me more inspiration for making more types of pasta - so far I've only attempted egg pasta and cracked black pepper pasta.
