heh... its odd to be eating "French" food in Kuantan... u would expect it in KL or something... There was this shop in Ampang (behind the main Jalan Ampang-near Ampang Point, same row like an italian and mexican restaurant) which we never ventured into due to its exclusiveness or something... it just says... only welcomed if u are a fine dining person...

well, we came to this restaurant Le Parisien in Kuantan... no such air of high class dining... but it did say french... apparently this restarant was started up by an authentic french guy... with a gals name... :p


anyway... we did enjoy our meal there... abeit smaller portions then normal... but taste wise... not bad... and didn't blow our wallets at the same time

Hannah had "French onion soup" and Gratin(mash baked with cheese on top)


Julie took their duck special... interesting... with peach!


I went for their other speciality... chicken on cream fettucini... nice!


point to note... they all had frenchy names for the food... which we cant remember... i lost the receipt so i cant give exact pricing... but the total bill was rm50+ [5%govt tax... no service charge]

That French restaurant in Jalan Ampang is Ma Maison. Ernest and I finally tried it recently. Good food! And people there are quite casually dressed because most of them are expats living around the area.

Not sure what the bill was, though...gotta check with Ernest.

Thanks for sharing your French food experience. It must be Gratin Dauphinois you mentioned (mashed potatoes baked with grated cheese and egg). It's my favourite French specialty :)
