Big Birthday Bash!!!

We celebrated my elder brother's birthday with something special. We all went to dinner at St Pierre Restaurant at Central Mall. For those of you who may find the name of the restaurant familiar, its because the "Chef in Black" is there. We had a special private room to ourselves so it was nice and intimate. The menu was pre-planned for us as all the items were already specially selected for us. Here are some of the things that we had (forgive the photography).



Fricasse of Escargo petit gris with green asparagus graninated with bone marrow, organic herb jus casse, crispy bacon, edamame puree and parmesan foam

Classic pan fried foie gras with caramelised green apples and old port sauce



Grilled and roasted black angus beef tenderloin chateaubriand with piquillos, olives, mustard parsley and xeres dressing, home made oxtail croquette crusted with fresh almond and carrot rognonade


Roasted wild scottish salmon crusted with brioche crumb viennoise, caramelised orange zest, wild girolle mushrooms, edamame beans, green asparagus and roasted capon jus




Apricot-passionfruit iced soup with crunchy gianduja praline ice cream and lychee spherification


Chocolate birthday cake with oreo cookies and raspberry sorbet

There were other dishes but we forgot to take pictures....

1) Smoke salmon quenelle with white chocolate and oscetra caviar tuile and foam of vitellotte potato

2) Panfried hokkaido scallop with wild herb crust infused with imperial soy sauce, pistou of french coco beans, home smoked duck breast and veal jus

3) Wild mushroom soup with shavings of black truffle

In between courses, we had different sorbets to cleanse the palate.
