    五臟廟之語 – Balzac

     

     This restaurant had been on our try list for some time and finally we manage to go there, also trying out their season degustation menu.

     

     

    Vol au vent of Champagne Poached Oyster, Leeks and Avruga

     

    Cauliflower Bavarois, Quail Jelly and Truffled Eggs

     

    Cured Kangaroo with Caramelised Baby Carrots, Salted Pistachio and Chocolate Jus Gras

     

    Mahi Mahi with Israeli Cous Cous, Clam and Mousseron Emulsion

     

    Silver Dory with Wagyu Cheek Ravioli, Wild Asparagus and Asparagus Veloute

     

    Roast Pork with a Croustillant of Shoulder and Prune, Apple and Celeriac

     

    Brie d Meux with Onion Brioche, Truffle and Honey

     

    Gin and Tonic Granita and Elderflower Foam

     

     

    Terrine of Poached Pears with Rice Ice Cream and French Walnuts

     

    Allpress Espresso and Pine Teas with Petit Fours

     

    The menu is quite creative in one way but unfortunately it is rather common. However the cooking skill and the presentation definitely make up for the commonness. I was particularly impressed by the entrées.

     

    The best part is the price is not that expensive compared to the city counterpart, and the menu is seasonal. This means next time the visit will definitely have some surprise element.
