Saveur at Far East Plaza
Thursday, November 05, 2015
Hello peeps! It's french cuisine this time round, something different from the previous posts. Saveur - which is located at town area, Level 1 of Far East Plaza. You will have to enter from the outside of the shopping mall, which means that you can't access it from inside. (One entrance only) Please pardon the not-nicely-taken photo of the signboard.
This time round, 3 of us have to wait about 15 minutes before getting a table. We reached there around 2pm, and the restaurant is crowded and with bit of queue. But luckily, the waiting time aint that long. Phew! The seating area is spacious enough too! Good ~

| First dish: Duck Confit ($13.90). I have to first complement the mashed potato, it is nicely whipped up - savoury too! I would say that it has generally absorb all the essence in the whole dish. You can choose to go with the shitake mushroom sauce too, but salty though. Bit of fig chutney which tasted bit like plums? But according to Google, it's actually mixture of fruits and spices. Lastly, the poultry jus (duck) which means the natural way to enhance the flavours especially chicken, veal and lamb. Pretty reasonable amount of meat for one pax portion. |

| Next on the list: Foie Gras with creamy lentils, pickled pearl onion ($7.90) I have to first admit that it's my virgin try on this! I have a tiny bite of it, kinda overwhelmed by the taste? Don't really know how to desrcibe it, but it tasted abit bloody? powdery? Next closest item i had in mind is pig liver (which i don't eat too). Hahaha practially i tried cutting it, it felt like jelly, bouncy kind. Worth giving it a try though especially for first timers. |

| Next: Saveur Pasta with chicken tuna and sakura ebi. This tasted pretty normal, using Angel hair pasta - just nice level of savouring too. We ordered the small version which costs us $4.90 only. |
Done with the main courses, how can we missed out desserts?
 |
| Salted Caramel Lava Cake with Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream ($12.90) First of all, the maldon sea salt caramel sauce is perfect! Strong taste of the caramel and warm enough to go with the cake. However, the cake was abit disappointing as i would describe it tasted more like kueh (too moist?) If not, this would be a 10/10 dessert already! This is defintely a good recommendation to go! |
In conclusion, this french cuisine place is a worth a go! Affordable and good foods, why not? Definitely a place which can be good for gathering too, though weekend might be a bit more packed than usual. Do note that they do allow reservations too. hence if you are planning to go with a larger group of friends you may then consider. They have several outlets too.
Cheers! :D
