Friday Dinner@Frensh
A small cafe inside VivoCity selling tartines. Just beside Modestos, a row of benched seats and just 2 tables of seats inside + some alfresco seats. What the heck are tartines ? We have absolutely no idea even browsing through the menu. The waitress gave us some idea, basically it is an open sandwich. So locally, you can say it is like roti john french style.
Numerous choices of tartines on the menu. The set menu at $17.50 looks reasonable. You get a tartine main course, a drink and a dessert. Duck tartine, ice latte and original cheese cake coming up ! And escargot and a salad, can't remember what salad. The names are too french to remember.
1/2 dozen Escargot at $8.50 are fat and chewy, slightly seasoned, quite liked it. The salad with ham, goat cheese, lots of lettuce and seasoning. Quite a good mix .... Not bad ! Shortly came the tartines ... My duck one was really good. The duck was minced, seasoned and peppered, spreaded on top of several pieces of bread ... seems like wholemeal ones. You get lots of crunchy lettuce with abit overwhelming vinegar kind of sauce.
The desserts are done nicely and taste as good. My original cheese cake was just too good ! The way I like it, the right amount of cheesy taste, how dense, how tangy, how chewy .... Good stuff !
To top it up. The service was just superb ! And no service charge ! For sandwich and dessert lovers, this is worth trying out.
