Happy Birthday, Spencer

Ivy is bored at home, and since it's a Public Holiday eve last night, we had an impromptu meet up at Poulet for dinner before heading to Mr Punch for a it of chilling out.

Food was served pretty fast & service was good. However, the down-side of it is, they do not take reservations & queue at Poulet started forming at 6.30pm! By the time I reach at abt 7pm, the queue was horribly long! Luckily Ivy was there early & she manage to get a table for us within 20 minutes of queuing. For those going in big group, I would suggest you either go early or go somewhere else

Poulet, French Restaurant with a open kitchen concept at the new Bugis+ (formally known as Iluma)

Hot drinks were served on a plate with few cubes of sugar in a separate glass

We ordered a few side dishes for sharing.

French Onion Soup; Sausages, Fries & Escargots

While Sausages & Fries ain't fantastic, the French Onion soup is fantastic! Escargots on the other hand ain't how I like it to be done. This was done with tomato & almond garlic butter. I prefer the old-school way with only garlic & butter.

While all of them had the HOT item of the restaurant - Poulet Rosti (Roast Chicken), which roasted was served with mushroom sauce. I find the mushroom sauce slightly diluted, but the chicken was very tender.

I ordered Braise Duck, which was served with wine sauce. I like this! The duck is super tender as well.

Than we have a Birthday Boy in the house! I went down to CBTL to get a slice of cake while the rest wait for the food to be served, & get the waiter to serve us the cake after we're done with our main dish.
