Les Bouchons @ Kuala Lumpur

Yes to another place that offers French bistro set lunch at a very wallet-friendly deal. Taking up a space at first floor Jalan Mayang, Les Bouchons is specializing in steak frites and French bistro cuisine. Soon after they have launched their lunch menu, I have noted down this place into my Eat List. Till last month, I finally managed to pay a visit with my partner-in-crime!

Rm 88 for 3 Courses
Available on Monday to Friday
Not available on public holidays and special days

Hah! A glass for me!

This house pour (Rm 38) – Chateau Haut-Bertinerie, Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc 2020 was a perfect pick. It was fruity and very flavourful!

Complementary bread and butter to start. Crusty skin with chewy fluff center, I also had it later with the rillettes!

Entrees

Prawn Cocktails Salad

Homemade Salmon Rillettes
We were choosing in between salmon or duck rillettes and we picked salmon in the end, thinking that we gonna have a duck confit later. Shredded salmon thickly spread on toasted crispy bread! Yumz! And remember to do it thick!

Plats

Roasted French Confit Duck Leg, served with Homemade Fries and Salad
Crispy skin with tender and pulling-off-bone juicy duck meat. It may look dry but it was not! Great portion too! But then I still prefer the one I had earlier here.

200gram of Grilled Australian Black Angus Sirloin MS2, 150days grain fed (supplementary Rm 25), and served with homemade fries and Salad. We were very happy with our steak! Made right at medium, beautifully toned with pinkish and reddish hues; succulent and delicious! Also, we both were happy with our supplemented money spent.

Dijon mustard, wholegrain mustard, homemade mayonnaise and béarnaise sauce.
The steak itself was superb on it owns, but a touch with these condiments (as above) spice up the steak! I always like mine with wholegrain mustard!

Desserts

Homemade Truffle Brie (supplementary Rm 12)
Comes with crackers, nuts and dried apricot and prunes.
Brie cheese with a truffle layer, soft and aromatic, not too overpowering.

Traditional Mac & Cheese (Rm 30)
We had the kids portion for Kayla and this Mac and Cheese came in quite a huge portion! Very cheesy, rich and very cremy! Ohhh, flavourful too! We managed half of it and happy that they offer us to take away the balance. And Kayla happily enjoyed the other half at home, with just a heat up!
