3-Course Fine Dining Menu at Parsley & Thyme - $25 nett!


Deal: [StreetDeal] SAVOUR HAPPINESS! Enjoy 50% off 3-Course Fine Dining Menu at Parsley & Thyme! ONLY $25 nett for Salmon Tartare + Char-grilled Sirloin Steak + Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake with White Chocolate Mousse!

Review: It's definitely value for money!! Chef-cum-boss is very generous and no corners cut even for a 50% discount deal. Will definitely be back for another deal, but this time with a cup of tea.

Overall Deal Rating : 4.25/5


Location / Setting: Newly opened restaurant Parsley & Thyme, in a shophouse along Kampong Bahru Road. It was a stone throw from Outram MRT, some easy evening walking required. Cozy modern setting, everything is slick and looks brand new.  The background jazz music and the tealight create a rest & relax ambiance.

Food Rating: 4/5

The 3-course fine Dining set meal @$25 nett include the following

(1) Appetizer - Tartare of Norwegian Salmon on a Salad with Beetroot and Raspberry Dressing
Chopped fresh raw salmon with chopped onions tartare topped with nicely roasted tomato.
Not the usual combination for salad, it came with pumpkin seeds and beetroot.  Taste quite nice, but it gets a bit too complicated if you combine everything in a mouthful.

(2) Main Course - Char-Grilled Hereford Sirloin Steak with Seasonal Vegetables, Potato Gratin and Semi-Dried Tomato/Garlic Butter
It was a very generous portion of beef, much much bigger size then the usual steak offered elsewhere. Really appreciate it especially when this meal is on special discount where other merchants will usually tried to reduce the meal portion to reduce cost.

Like the charred flavour of the outer layer and the pinky, tender and juicy beef within. Its definitely different from those dry chunk of beef served in those budget cafe. The semi dried tomato and garlic butter really adds the "oomph" to the dish - flavorful garlic butter with a tinge of sourness to balance the oily butter.

Roast potatoes instead of potato Gratin was served.  The potatoes go well with the butter as well.

Nice presentation!

Dessert - Chocolate Fudge Petite Four with White Chocolate Mousse and Sour Cherry Coulis
The white chocolate Mousse was change to coffee chocolate mousse.Will suggest to order a cup of tea to go with the sweet and heavy dessert.
The Sour Cherry Coulis was quite unique, sweet with liquor fragrance on first bites and trace of sourness as you chew further.
Dessert 
The service was relatively good and prompt.
