a lovely night in bistro papillon! such an elaborately deco cozy french restaurant with about 10 tables, a bar and a semi-open kitchen. the staffs were excellent and we felt pretty much taken care of. he help us chose beaujolais, which is very light and nice, and kindly gave us helpful recommendations during order.
we had the beef tartare, garlic butter snail and the only two fresh oysters left in the kitchen(so sad, we will can have more! ). all the entrees tasted very nice, compared to the rabbit, today's special, we ordered for the main. the rabbit was well cooked, but lack of characters to catch your flavor, too ordinary and will not think about it again when you came back home.
for the dessert, the brulee was quite a shock at the first taste in my mouth and i immediately fall for it. it is a must have.
overall, bistro papillon is a place i'll go for many times when i stay in sydney. not to mention the raclette night i'm very much looking forward to.
