HIHIHIHI!!! MAY&FJ are back with a new review, this time round on French food. As you all know, French food requires an acquired taste. I (FJ) am still trying to find it in me, still finding. We went out with our University friends that day with an intention to try out the AWESOME Char Siew at 6A Keong Siak Road, but it was CLOSED on Sunday. Blur us! So we decided to settle for an alternative around that area as it was raining quite badly that day, hence we got ourselves into Taratata as they serve Sunday Brunch! We love Sunday Brunch~

When we stepped in, it was like we were in another world, away from the messy streets and the rain. It felt like a typical tiny French Restaurant we'd see in the movies with all the classic warm lights, pictures hanging on the walls featuring little bits of French/France and soothing jazz music filled the air. We gotta give them plus points for such an atmosphere.





We ordered a Eeuf Cocotte a la Ratatouille & et au Chorizo ($12), Classique Croissant Jambon Fromage Servi Chaud ($13), Croque Madame ($16) and Bechamel Champignons Jambon & Fromage ($12), a glass of French Apple Cider ($8) and a glass of White Wine House Pour ($10). The bill totaled to a $83.07. Here's their Sunday Brunch Menu and their Drinks Menu. You can refer to the rest of their menus here.




Eeuf Cocotte a la Ratatouille & et au Chorizo:

  • Oven-baked creamy eggs casserole with Ratatouille and Chorizo Sausages.
  • It had a tangy taste, very appetizing.
  • The egg was soooooooooooo good! The yolk was runny!
  • They had cheese in it.
  • They had many types of vegetables which is good for it makes you feel that it's a healthy dish. (But you'd know better sometimes)
  • It had this herbal sprinkles on it, it smelled sooooo good.
  • The bread was slightly hard, but once you dip it, it's fine.
  • The portion was just fine.
  • The whole combination was just great! I (FJ) would personally recommend this to you peeps to try!




 Classique Croissant Jambon Fromage Servi Chaud:
  • Croissant filled with Ham and Gruyere Cheese.
  • The Croissant looked T-I-N-Y. Not something you wanna have if you're looking for a hearty Brunch.
  • It looked kinda charred too.
  • The cheese was good, so cheese lovers this is a to go!


Croque Madame:
  • Baked Ham & Gruyere Cheese Sandwich with Bechamel sauce topped with a Fried Egg.
  • IT had generous servings of Ham and Gruyere Cheese.
  • Sandwich was crispy.
  • It came with a PERFECT Sunny Side Up.

Bechamel Champignons Jambon & Fromage:
  • Morney, Mushrooms, Ham and Emmental 
  • Cheese and cream makes the dish slightly salty.
  • The cream itself was rather thick.
  • The crepe itself was thin, so you'd mostly taste the cream and you'd get kinda sick of eating it after awhile.
  • The fillings in the crepe were fine.

Overall Advantage:
  • Atmosphere was great!
  • Staff were really nice and friendly. They take initiative to recommend you their dishes and advice you the best way to eat your food.
 (French Apple Cider)

(House Pour: White Wine)

Overall Disadvantage:
  • They go around with this basket of Croissants and ask if you'd like to have one. We were asked a couple of times and it got kinda irritating honestly.

Note:
  • Brunch ends at 1630pm and it is only available on Sunday.

We would say that Taratata Bistrot is a place to go if you'd wanna have a restaurant with a good ambiance to chill over wine and food. But not all dishes are really worth paying the money, so do give the menu a little more thought before you take your pick!
Have you ever been to Taratata Bistrot? If you do, do share your experiences with us!!! We'd love to hear from you!

Till next time lovelies!
