Dinner at Saveur Purvis Street

Back to Purvis Street... and was suppose to have our dinner at the chix rice shop. But as we walk further, we saw a lot people crowding outside this French restaurant, Saveur waiting to be seated at 6 for dinner. FAT was saying their marketing strategy was good - To fix the dinner time at 6 and to be seated only after 6 - it make use of the waiting patrons to attract more, and give an impression that the restaurant was empty! Lol! Indeed, it works and it attracted us! hahaha!!
However, of coz the restaurant need to be up to certain standard for the patrons to reach early and wait patiently.
Sharp at 6, slowly we were seated and by 630 the restaurant was almost full already!
Looking at the menu, is quite limited, but the choices all look so tempting and prices are reasonable too!

Even the foie gras, FAT's favorite cost only 9.90! N he ordered 2, all by himself! For me, I can't take the weird taste n smell!! But according to FAT, the way the foie gras was nicely prepared, soft, and juicy. Unlike those badly cooked foie gras, hard and rubbery. All their foods were nicely presented, and you can feel the chef did put in some effort to do up the dishes.

Soup of the Day 4.90 - Mushroom Soup (Not Coffee) Haha!!

Not really nice. It doesn't taste Mushroomy at all, too creamy. I felt that a tasteful mushroom soup should be thick and with bits of mushroom. I wouldn't pay 4.90 for this during my next visit. Would rather pay a little more for the SALMON!!! <3

Confit of Salmon with Apple and Fennel Salad - 9.90

This is NICE~ AweSome! YummY!! The SALMON, definitely the healthier choice! It's delicately cooked - sweet and juicy. It's not baked nor grilled, guess by Poaching method! Well, is a quick and easy cooking method but of coz with a certain skill level i guess, and i feel is the great way to enjoy the essence of the fish!

Pan Fried Foie Gras with Lentils and Pickled Onions - 7.90

...... well it looks presentable and looks like some delicacy. Indeed it is, for FAT, not for me... :(
LOL!! FAT had them both in his montrous-tummy!!

Pan Fried Foie Gras with Apple infused Port Wine & Vanilla - 9.90


Confit of Duck with Orange Segments and Saute Shittake - 9.90

I had this for my main course. Though the main dish is duck, but i love their sides even more! Their mashed potato is really nice!! Believe me!! I would rather not order main course and order the mashed potato as sides, only $2!! The Saute mushroom, i tried, quite nice... tasty, soft and juicy. FAT says even better than the Table Manners. For the duck, i guess i was already quite full with the potato, so i didn't very much enjoy the duck. Pass on to FAT, as usual! He devoured it immediately! Trust me, the monster inside the tummy is seriously a hidden gourmet, any food that is not well prepared it will just get rejected by those superpowered taste buds!!

Chicken Roulade with Foie Gras Stuffing and Basmati Rice - 9.90

For FAT!! It's really for HIM! the Cheesy rice, so tasty! and portion just nice! FAT says is a Ang-Moh Style Mui-Fan! LOL! But no doubt is very special and nice.
P.S: Don't ask me what's that white frothy thingy! To me, i can only guess is egg whites!

TaaDaaa~~~~~ FiNaLLy!! Special Dessert of the Day - ONLY FOR THAT DAY!
Apple Risotto, Caramel Biscuit Soil, Cheese Yoghurt, Toffee Jelly, Celery and Apple Ice & Cinnamon Pastry - 7.90

Initially when i saw the menu, i tot it's those normal apple soaked in caramel over a sizzling pan or sth like that..... BUT I must say this is indeed a very Special, Unique and Dedicate dessert, which needs lots of skills and preparation time. Just the Apple Risotto, I was really amazed by the taste! And the Apple ice, very refreshing and sweet!! When i have abit of all ingredients, the mixture of the taste was superb!! Just like you have Best of everything!!
