Returned to Les Amis , Singapore , to celebrate CHRISTmas - 12 days & beyond , etcetera ..
.. like Three Kings Day , or Día de Los Reyes , a Christian holiday celebrated on January 6 , 12 days after CHRISTmas . The holiday commemorates the visit of the three Magi , or wise men , who brought gifts to the infant Jesus and also some Orthodox churches follow the older Julian calendar , which currently runs 13 days behind the civil Gregorian calendar , meaning December 25 falls on January 7
Having trouble posting photos of our meal , hence the discourse 👆🏻 and one below so far

Our dessert part of menu , decisions , decisions , decisions ..

Troisgros - Le Bois sans feuilles, Ouches, France 


Spent a week in the Roanne area and visited the legendary Troisgros. The original restaurant by the Roanne train station is now a more casual eatery, while the 3 Michelin-starred restaurant moved out to the country and also has a hotel. The dishes are now all modern fusion (but I read you can request Salmon and Sorrel ahead of time) and all the protein was seafood -- no meat dishes unless you count the sweetbreads.

Couple of quick data points:
Les Amis Singapore (3*) - nice but not overwhelming (94/100)
Ritz London (unbelievably only 2*) - great experience (96-)
Anne-Sophie Pic at le Normandie bangkok (2*) - superb 96
also went to Electric Sheep in Bangkok - think 'hippy joint'. Fun with quite good food but BYO as they only have Thai wine.
Noble Rot London: fantastic selection of wines by the glass - 1903 Madeira or a 1980 d'Yquem anyone?
Arva at Aman in Bangkok: surprisingly good Italian food.

What must be the cheapest Michelin meal in the western hemisphere. Taste is a bit ordinary but I have had many a worst taco. The cut is the fillet(gaonera)


occurred to me over dinnerthat maybe going early in the day may not be the best as the griddle hasn’t build up any … flavouring yet.

Went to a 1 star establishment, La Grange (de Belle Eglise) in the village of Belle Eglise somewhere north of Paris (just 300m from the Bronel-Belle Eglise TER station with service to/from Gare du Nord. Pretty good, had the 5 course decouverte menu which ran EUR 84. Wine pairing presentation was interesting as the wine was partially obscured so you had to guess what it was (the wine waiter came back to show the wine). Lots of little amuse bouches, hors d'oeuvres, palate cleansers and petit fours (or rather deux).
