Poulèt @ Bedok Mall B2

Hello!

Thanks for dropping by to read this next post :) 


I'm really excited to share with you about Poulèt, Singapore's First french casual dining restaurant chain. 

Poulèt (poo-lay).is a French word and it means Chicken. That is why you'll notice that the restaurant's logo has a rooster's comb on top of the letter 'e'. 


Anyway, I was in Bedok and I just wanted to try something interesting and an Eiffel tower came to mind and I thought of Poulet. I 've seen this French- themed restaurant in  other malls and I've always wanted to give it a try and so yesterday, my friend and I did! 

 We tried 3 items on their menu. 



The first was their Sautéed wild mushrooms. 

The mushrooms were really good!! There was also a big round egg sitting in the middle. When i poked it gently with my fork, it was so bouncy like you know thatcertain kind of fish ball. In fact,  I was soooo tempted to burst it to see the egg yolk ooze out and I did! Cheap thrill lol 

Anyway, I really liked this dish and if i ever get to cook it , I would try it with an Asian twist and add chilli padi into my recipe:P




Next, we ordered their Chicken &Fig Marmalade Sandwich as well as their Smith Chicken & Egg Mayo Chicken Sandwich. Both were served with lightly-salted  thick golden yellow straight-cut fries on wooden chopping boards. 

                                                    


I found that the Fig Marmalade complemented the large portion of creamy chicken slices. I also liked the croissant which was baked to perfection- crusty and buttery. Tomatoes and lettuce sandwiched in-between were fresh. The hot fries really filled me up. Overall, I really like this item. 


                                      
   

Likewise, the Smith Chicken & Egg Mayo Sandwich was also well made, but unlike the previous one, it took on a creamier note due to the mayo.



By this time, both our bellies were almost filled to the brim and an attempt to take on their dessert  would have caused our stomachs to erupt..I'm not kidding... that was how filling their items were.  



Verdict: It was definitely a worth the money for the food. The 2 of us spent only $25 altogether to satisfy our palettes and tummies. Service wise, I thought the staff could have been a tad friendlier :)

My petit ami ( boyfriend ) and I just had our dinner at Spageddies at the Orchard Central outlet which is just beside SG Flight Simulator. We ordered:

1) Crayfish and Tenderloin Pasta
2) Wild Mushroom Soup
3) Half Loaf Bread

First, I must say that I came here because I wanted to use my voucher as it is expiring soon. It was given to me by Orchard Central as a birthday gift, along with a few other great vouchers like Love n Show, Ya Kun Kaya Toast, Chrysalis and an Orchard Central Voucher. No minimum spend for all these vouchers which is great because most of these free vouchers are useless to me because of their T&Cs. Thank You OC for the presents! Btw, You’re still one of my favourite malls in Singapore especially when I need some peace and quiet while I’m in town.

Oh yes, so as for the food, the main course was good. I loved the pasta which was cooked aglio olio style even though it was a tad too peppery for my bf.  The beef was served medium rare with mushroom sauce, and the crayfish was fresh and had a good tomato based sauce. The soup was pretty standard but the bread- half a loaf of toasted baguette- was different. It was served with fried garlic on a side plate instead of fresh garlic paste. That’s a first. And you can tell that the oil used was fresh.

The ambience was decent but I would have preferred to sit outside if not for the rain. It looks more charming out there.

 Staffs who served us were pretty friendly, efficient and alert. It took just 5-10 minutes before the soup came, but they should have served it together with the bread and the garlic instead of serving separately.


Place was not too packed at the time we were there (i.e. 6 pm ) but a queue formed when we left. 

Overall, a decent restaurant. 7/10 

cheers :)
