Le Papoillon

Friend invited me for a lunch treat at Le Papillon.

We had an appetiser, soup, 2 mains and a dessert.

Freshly Picked Mud Crab and Pear Salad Cherry Tomato, Tomato Jam and Bocconcini “mini mozzarella” This is superb! The tomato jam is very nice and if i was mistaking it for Papaya cream or something. But its light and creamy. nice! The middle portion was the salad and crab meat. The crab meat was a big wholesome chuck, not bits and pieces as what u might expect. Nice. The only thing is, i forgotten the pictures for this and tucked into my appetiser greedily already!

Le Papillon Parsnip Cream Soup with Truffle Oil and Sautéed Scallops The soup is nice, with a slight taste of parsnip. Tastes Fresh to the buds. I love the scallop! It is so fresh and flavorsome! Can't resist biting into the fat and juicy piece of scallop! I wanted more!

Rigatoni Pasta Tossed in Crustacean Oil, Shaved Bottarga, Tiger Prawns, Seaweed and Arugula Salad We had a complimentary small plate of this, since the main course wasn't arriving yet. It looks as good as the picture! Pasta cooked to the right texture and big and fresh tiger prawn. But the prawn could be crunchier i guess..

Le Papillon Grilled Yorkshire Pork Rack with Honey-Glazed Snow Peas, Granny Smith Apple and Oven Roasted Potato Raspberry Vinegar Glaze Heard that this was the special in the house. The pork was delightfully grilled and smells heavenly, though the aroma is not as strong as chinese roasted pork. Not as tough as i expected, but it could be juicier and softer i guess. The apples and purple sweet potato are a good combi to the meat. Yummy.

Le Papillon Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream Wonderful piece of cake, the cake is not very sweet, but it has warm flowing chocolate in the inside! A Chocolate lover like me simply can't resist =)

Ambience: Went for Lunch. So did not get to see the night ambience. But lunch ambience was, normal to my opinion. Not very exaggerated furnishing. Simple.

Pricing: It was free lunch for me, but i guess it would set most ppl back by around 30 for their lunch menu. Quite worth a deal i guess!

Transport: Near Maxwell market. Parking lots just behind the Red Dot building.

Verdict: Might go back again for other items on the lunch menu since lunch is quite affordable!
