Bistro G - For that Idyllic Meal Time


Imagine being in a relaxing setting and enjoying Bistro Breakfast decked with juicy sausage, crispy bacon, wholesome toast and scrambled egg, plus fresh tomato slices and leafy veggies to perk thing up. Ah, that’s life. That’s the experience of dining at Bistro G.





Given the high ceiling, minimalistic white setting, lots of natural light peeking through the glass walls, and ample of space between tables, it is so easy to feel relaxed at this place. And the food is very good to go along with.


Talking about the food, what I like here is the interesting menu featuring unique items. One good example is the Pulled Pork Challah, which is super flavourful, juicy shredded pork drizzled with cheddar sauce sandwiched between soft, fluffy challah bun. This is bursting with flavours. Definitely a highlight of this place.


The same goes for Chicken Katsu Burger that has deep fried chicken patty, special sauce of horseradish and brioche bun instead. The chef knows exactly what kind of unique sauce to pair with his burgers, since it really works beautifully.


One of the weak links here is the Lobster Roll. Yes, the sauce goes very well with the generous chucks of lobster meat, but the meat is cold. In fact, I think it is taken straight out of the fridge. It may be just me, but I want freshly cooked meat to be in my burger, to feel the hot juices of the meat rush out to soak the bun when I bite into it. And the lobster meat is pretty tough and bland. This is not the fault of the cook though since based on my experiences, lobster dishes have always been the overpriced “meh” item on the menu. Lobster is basically the overhyped tasteless, tough cousin of prawns. I really need to stop ordering lobster despite how promising it looks.


See the two sad-looking pieces of sourdough toast here? It looks pretty unimpressive, but the bread is pretty good, full of subtle flavours. My problem with this is for its hefty price, there is no butter provided. Yes, I need to pay extra for the butter. Now the toast is truly very sad-looking. I definitely will not order this ever again.

Note: Looks like there is an update in the menu where butter is now provided. Geez, it’s about time. But due to the bad experience, I’m still not touching that.

Service is functional, but I got to give credit to the girl who kept her cool when I looked like I was going to blow up at the knowledge that no butter was provided for the expensive toast.

Thoughts: Great place to relax and enjoy good food.
