French Cuisine

5 years after they’ve opened as a patisserie, Mad About Sucre has evolved and recently gone through a huge makeover. The new interior design concept is edgy and unconventional, with many colours juxtaposed next to each other, and yet it had really cosy and chill vibes as I settled in. They even have a small table lamp that acts as quite a nice lighting tool for photos too :D

Glad to say that along with the physical makeover, they’ve matured as a full restaurant serving a solid selection of starters and mains, with really tasty savouries!

My favourite of the night was the grilled cauliflower steak ($35+) with a bed of gherkins salsa, topped with miso, almonds, figs and prunes. The combination of flavours were addictively good, and you must eat every part together along with the prunes. It was as flavourful as a full meat dish and I didn’t feel like I was eating a vegetarian dish at all! Textures were on point too with the almonds giving a nice crunch. Highly recommend trying this when you’re here!

Part of Mad About Sucre’s New Year Festive Dinner Menu ($165+) ~

This dish was the second dessert course of the Menu, and it featured a very unique texture of chocolate, which is called the chocolate yolk, the last dark brown sphere on the plate. As the name suggests, it’s like an egg yolk with an extremely thin and delicate membrane holding a runny dark chocolate inside. The moment it’s cut open, the chocolate just bursts out and it’s amazing!

The chocolate runs and it is to be eaten with a nice combination of textures and flavours with the vanilla mousse, raspberry sauce and sphere and also sponge cake to soak up the remainder chocolate! Very creative dessert and I hope this would appear once again beyond this one-off festive menu!
