Salade Perigourdine

Starting with a ‘salad’ this time, though there’s much more protein than fibre on this plate. Rendez-Vous serves a hearty interpretation of the classic ‘salade perigourdine’ (RM32++), with succulent Parma ham, unctuous semi-cooked foie gras terrine, smoked duck breast, sliced pork bacon, & the surprise star – a ramekin of potently flavoursome chicken liver pate.

Eggs Mimosa

Eggs Mimosa (RM19++) are another likely attraction – hard-boiled eggs stuffed with a creamy, mayo-mingled yolk mix.

Scallops

Fans of scallops, have ’em served on a shell here with a savoury Rivesaltes muscat wine sauce of a vivid hue. RM40++.

Salted Cod Fish

Salted cod fish brandade, topped with potato puree in the traditional fashion of Nimes (RM32++). The mash is salted, always the keyword to remember when deciding whether to order brandade; it’s enjoyable enough if your threshold for sodium is high.

Floating Island

Dishing out desserts: A bevy of French specialities, from the ‘floating island’ meringue on a lake of creme anglaise (RM12++) …

Creme Brulee

 … to the crowd-pleasing creme brulee, served in different flavours each evening – depending on your fortune, you might experience coffee or chocolate or even pistachio or passion fruit (RM12++).

Sorbet

Sorbet is served too (lime, apple or pear; RM8 for one scoop) – if you like, have it flambeed.

Liqour Galore

All manner of liquor is available, including refreshing French-inflected cocktails like the Polignac Mojito – made with Cognac instead of rum – & the Le Cana’rie (Ricard, lemon, bitters, soda; RM26++).

Marinated Vodka

A secret stash: Smirnoff vodka marinated for two weeks with macerated candy for a sweetened sensation.
