Saveur @ Purvis Street

The initial hype with Saveur seems to have died down slightly, and there were still empty seats on a Wednesday evening at 645pm. Previously, it would be full even before 615pm.

This time, we ordered two mushroom soups, one pasta, two foie gras, one salad, and two main courses. Only the pasta and salad are new, so I will cover them below. 

Angel hair pasta with sherry minced pork and Sakura ebi, $3.90

The minced pork prompted us to call this their 'bak chor mee'. Quite good, though I would still prefer their other pasta (with tiger prawns and lumpfish caviar).

Mesclun salad with lemon vinaigrette and crispy duck, $3.90

This was a very simple salad. The duck was rather crispy indeed, but it seemed as if they tore off some bits of meat from their duck confits and baked or fried it a bit longer to make it more crispy.
