As lovers of all things francais, we’re delighted to bid a warm bonjour to Bouchon Bistro Francais, a chic Parisian restaurant located in the heart of Elgin Street.

French dining does not get any better at Bouchon. The Parisian ambience factors into every single detail of the restaurant, from the eggshell-coloured walls to the use of etched glass and unique metal ceiling tiles, all evoke the feel of a quaint cafe in Paris. If you just want to read a book while nursing a glass of wine, the restaurant also has a small and cosy outdoor terrace at its rear.

Then there’s the food, and boy oh boy is it divine! Blending fresh ingredients with traditional recipes, the menu touts dishes so good you’ll start planning your return visit after your first bite. Start by diving into a bowl of savoury Onion Soup, then follow it up with the evergreen Confit de Canard, or duck leg that is is paired with flageolet beans, bacon, and a touch of sherry vinegar. The Bouillabaisse, or Provencal seafood stew, showcases rich complex seafood flavours and comes overflowing with tiger prawns, mussels, perch, and crab. Then polish the meal off with a sweet and creamy Creme Brulee that practically melts on your tongue. A culinary gem, Bouchon shines with fuss-free French fare that wows and dazzles. (Oct 2017)

THE BUZZ

"When our mains arrived soon after, we were overwhelmed by the generous portions - a Dining Concepts trademark. The bouillabaisse was rich and full of flavour, and the seafood was fresh and of very high quality." -Expat Living Hong Kong
