  Casual French Dining & Nice Gourmet Store

  I’ve only walked past but not tried the one at Duo Galleria (Bugis) but this So France bistro at Claymore looks vibrant and cheerful, and it is conveniently located near Orchard Road for a tête à tête over lunch or tea (or dinner if you don’t mind the dodgy night scene in the vicinity). Service is attentive, prompt and friendly. There are the typical French dishes like Boeuf Bourguignon, Le Cassoulet, Coq au Vin, Confit de Carnard, Bouillabaisse, Salade Nicoise, Tartare de Boeuf, Steak Frites, Souris d’Agneau, Ratatouille, as well as planches of rillettes, pâté, cold cuts and French cheeses, and desserts like Crème Brûlée, profiteroles, Fondant au Chocolat and Baba au Rhum. Do try the affordable two or three course weekday set lunches at S$28 (USD20/€20/£17) and S$32 (USD23/€23/£19), respectively. After your meal, you can also pick up some groceries next door at the So France gourmet store which is manned by equally friendly staff. I especially love the individually wrapped “pur beurre” Maison Colibri madeleines (I’ve tried most of the flavours and this simple pure butter version is the best!) and all the different flavours of the Croustisud potato chips/crisps (much better than So Chips). I also like the pretty little tins of sardines, the French butter and of course, the French cheeses. I have been a loyal fan of Comté but the store manager recommended I try a brebis/sheep’s milk cheese that closely resembles Comté, and I was pleasantly surprised to find it even more flavourful. Gasp. Merci beaucoup!

  Marvellous

  Came by for breakfast one morning: loved the interior decor and clean new restaurant (it’s literally spotless!), excellent service and delicious food. Don’t miss it!

  Chic new outlet

  Conveniently located in Orchard, this new outlet has a more vibrant look then their original one in Duo and some tables are in a cosy enclave.

  So French!

  Refreshing French decor and contemporary music. Menu includes classic French food like Beef Bourguignon, Coq au Vin, etc. We had the Canard à L’Orange, Beef Rossini - perfectly cooked although the orange sauce for the duck lacks punch. The bouillabaisse with rock fish wasn’t as expected. The soup base wasn’t as rich and flavorful as should be and the fish was not juicy and soft. Must try Chocolate Lava cake and poached pear with chocolate sauce. Overall, nice place for family and friends to meet and be happy.
