Experience A “Grand Repas Français” at Ginett this June with Masterchef Roland Durand
This June, the chef-patron of the Michelin-starred Le Passiflore in Paris, Chef Roland Durand brings about classic French bistronomy to Ginett Restaurant & Wine Bar for three exciting nights from 18th-20th June. The multi-award winning chef has created a classic French menu that incorporates subtle oriental influences that will be available a la carte or in a three-course set dinner (S$69++). In addition, the Ginett team has collaborated with Chef Durand to curate an optional wine pairing (additional S$35++) for the set dinner.
To mark his inaugural visit to the island nation, Chef Durand has prepared well-acquainted Parisian dishes to showcase his skill and ability to adapt his dishes to better suit his customers’ palette. One such dish is the Ravioles D’escargots (S$21++) – a traditional escargot appetizer that is usually cooked simply in butter and garlic, but Durand presents his revamped version that involves delicate handmade ravioli parcels being served in a savoury-sweet fine herb broth.
For a cold appetizer, customers can opt for the Tartare De Crevettes Tigrées et d’Avocat (S$25++), a tartare of tiger shrimp and avocado, served with a summery Piquant tomato coulis that is scented with coconut milk.
Chef Durand’s mainstay dishes feature hearty recipes that have withstood the test of time such as the Cabillaud Rôti Au Chorizo (S$35++) – a generous piece of tender Atlantic cod roasted with chorizo, paired with champignons bouquet and topped off with an oyster and seaweed emulsion sauce. An alternative meater choice would involve the Carre D’agneau Rôti Au Cumin (S$40++) – a flavourful, charcoal-grilled cumin-marinated lamb rack with ratte potato gnocchi, and finished with a punchy tamarind chutney.
To end the French affair on a sweet note, choose between the Sablé Aux Fraises Et À La Rhubarbe (S$14++), a strawberry and rhubarb with orange coulis or the Le Merveilleux Riz Au Lait A L’angelique De Roland Durand (S$14++) – Chef Durand’s signature marvelous rice pudding made with almond milk with a swirl of pumpkin marmalade.
Note: The Three-Course Set Dinner is only available during 18th-20th June, seats are limited to reservations.
Ginett Restaurant & Wine Bar is located at 200 Middle Rd, Singapore 188980.
