Le Bistro de L'olivier, Taipei


For my belated birthday dinner, Hubby took me to this restaurant - Le Bistro de L'olivier. He'd told me to dress casually, so I was expecting a casual place with casual prices to match. This is what the shop front looks like (decided to try out a fancy sepia art filter :)) ...


The French looking menu ...



Complimentary hor d'oeuvres ... mini quiches with olive tapenade?


I loved the bread - crust was nice and crisp and inside was deliciously warm and fluffy ... ate more than I should have!


Fish Bisque ...


Boullabaise ...


Accompanying "crouton" ... the garlic was rubbed on the surface of the crouton then the whole thing left to soak up the flavours in the boullabaise ...


The cheese and thousand island dressing were also placed on top of the crouton (atop the garlic) for maximum flavour ...


Escargots ...


Pan fried fish with cous cous and tarragon sauce ...


Grand Marnier Souffle ...




Tea and chocolate to round off the meal ...
