Classics revisited

The swish eatery in the heart of the CBD has revived equally classic culinary treats to match their 1930s Art Deco-inspired decor. The Chicken Velouté ($18) is a velvety, comforting soup of poached chicken showcasing the veloute, one of the five “mother sauces” of classical French cuisine, while the escargots ($21 for a half dozen) are ingeniously topped with spoons of buttery bone marrow in each shell. Don’t miss also the Tournedos Rossini ($50) comprising truffle and foie gras stacked atop a tenderloin steak, or the Lobster Thermidor ($65) grilled with three cheeses – gruyere, mozzarella and parmesan. Cap off the meal with a show-stopper of a dessert: the Black Swan Fireball ($22) is a luxurious chocolate encased ice-cream first doused with Grand Marnier liqueur then flamed tableside for full, dramatic effect. 19 Cecil Street.
