Review Pelanggan untuk Piquant

Continuing on my previous post about Chicory, did you know they also have a fine dining restaurant called Piquant at the back? Portions are in line with the concept but surprisingly filling (perhaps because most dishes are on the creamy and decadent end?). Would recommend for those craving European cuisine. P.S welcome bread is the same ciabatta they serve with the omelette and it was delish

🐈Worth to try

Barramundi(320k) 8.5/10
Roasted leek, asparagus, black trumpets, potato, and mushroom milk. I love fish but find that they can be tricky to prepare well. This unexpectedly was my favourite dish that day. Very light yet buttery, nicely paired with the mushroom sauce.

Braised Organic Beef Cheek and Leek (330k) 8/10
Liquorice sauce was yummy and pomme puree was very smooth and creamy. Highlight was how tender the beef cheek was, melts like butter inside your mouth.

Christmas Pudding (165k) 7.5/10
Not a fan of dried fruit in dessert overall, however we couldn’t not order this for Christmas meet up right? Almond cherry ice cream was really tasty, you could also really taste the brandy in the cream. Not something I would crave often, however very appropriate for the festive season.

Onion and Thyme Tart (180k) 7.5/10
Liver parfait, wild arugula, asparagus, and mustard air. Very bold foie gras flavour with buttery tart😋. Love this appetizer but could be polarizing for some palette.

Valrhona Chocolate Pave (185k) 6.5/10
Very fudgy chocolate dessert served with berries and almond ice cream to give the dish added complexity. Good but pretty standard dessert you could find elsewhere.

Slow Cooked Organic Berkshire Pork Jowl (340k) 5/10
Way too much fat for me (like 70% fat 30% meat). My friend who ordered the dish loved this so it depends on preference.
Best part for me was the raisin chutney and parsnip puree.
