A meal isn’t really fulfilled without a glass of wine - look forward to an extensive selection of quality, great value wines of close to 350 labels from France and beyond.
Jeffrey the owner operator is a champion explaining the dishes as you tuck into delicious bistro style fare that you would expect being delivered direct to table from a kitchen smack in the middle of Burgundy - France.
The escargot garlic and butter parsley served as either a six or 12 piece are to die for. These gorgeous escargot are delicious and tender, accompanied with a selection of artisan breads and of course lashings of butter.... it is French Bistro cuisine after all.
The starter Croquettes need to have a mention here. Three or 6 piece serve of cheese and shaved ham all rolled up in the generous ball and lightly fried - to perfection.
Your writer would go back again and again just for the croquettes and a glass of burgundy pinot and sit at the bar for a 15 minute stop over when I am next in this dynamic neighbourhood - attending a meeting or whatever....this is a destination experience.
There are a number of different styles of communal eating within the bistro environment, and is also inviting if you are flying solo one lunchtime or evening.
There are about six bar stool table places and a few high tables towards the front of the restaurant. This allow for a relaxed chat with friends over some freshly flown in Oysters and a glass or two of wine - the wine selection here is extensive.
The wine room located in the forward section of the Bistro as you enter the room - is a feature of the restaurants beautifully decorated environment. There is a long wooden communal table in a private nook for a party of up to 12 and then you have the typical square restaurant style white linen low rise tables that fill each evening as they are located towards the back of the restaurant allowing for the wondrous flavours wafting by as meals are delivered to guests.
My favourite two dishes I must emphasise here - these are hearty meals, and these are warming meals - that give you a sense of home. A sense of comfort.
Boeuf Bourguignon recipe of Mdm Daurelle. Beef stew in a red wine sauce with mash potato.This was just perfect. Julia Child eat your heart out. Now we are talking excellent delivery, impeccable preparation and a taste sensation that leaves you wanting more.
I noticed a good old reliable on the menu although we did not order on this occasion. Le Boeuf, cuit au charbon – Charcoal grilled beef USDA Angus Rib eye 250gr, Prime Rib Angus-Charolais 1.2kg all served with Béarnaise, sides and mustards.
We had an exceptional experience and best of all we all loved the affordability of the experience.
The desserts we ordered consisted of Flan Pâtissier. Vanilla French Custard Pie and Vanilla Artisan Gelato and a naughty Éclair au cassis served with a Cassis Custard Cream and a dollop of Vanilla Artisan Gelato
The prices on the Menu at Gaston Burgundy Bistro are realistic and they some of the best value for money prices in town for this level of service and delivery.
Huge respect and a big congratulations to the team at Gaston Burgundy Bistro, we will be back really soon - and hopefully lots of expat choice readers will be excited enough to make a booking and experience this awesome slice of France in Singapore. Hats off to the entire team.
