Absinthe Restaurant Francais

I had really good meals at Absinthe. Perhaps the heightened expectations resulted in an underwhelming lunch.

Prawn and Avocado Salad - Refreshing but that was it



Salad of Smoked Duck Breast - We were uncomfortable with the strong taste of goat cheese

Iberico Pork Presa - Nothing much to say but edible

Sea Bream - Fish itself was nice and oily

Chocolate cake, Apple Tart and Complimentary Creme Brulee - Nothing particularly outstanding

I was pretty excited to check out Absinthe ever since they shifted to Boat Quay. Sadly, other than little surprise they did for the birthday celebration. Nothing else was memorable in any way. Depressing.

Hi PY, it was a hits-and-misses experience for me too the last time I visited them last year.

Was it your B'Day? If so, wishing a happy one!

C&s: sadly it's more misses than hits for me. It's my pa's bday :)
