Saybons

To all my vegetarian friends out there, Saybons @ Junction 8 offers affordable French food for everyone. 

Saybons is inspired from the French phrase- C'est Bon which means 'it's good' in French. To make it a little easier and unique, we anglicized the phrase and added a 's' at the back. Most people should be able to pronounce this one we guess.

The Interior 

Saybons adopted the light blue colour for their decorations, wall color, and plastic cups to represent a lighter feeling when you enter the restaurant. It's a rather small one comfortable for less than 20 persons. 

The menu are attached right outside the restaurant and one on top of the counter. They basically served from toast bread to soups to savoury crepes as well as dessert crepes. They also offered one of the French favourite, the escargots.

Garlic Herb Butter, Tomato Toast, Pumpkin Soup, Ice Lemon Tea: $7.80

I had the promotion of ordering the Pumpkin soup at $3.90 and additional add-on of two toast and a drink at $3.90. To be honest, I'm not a fan of the Pumpkin soup but it's really not that bad. It's not those watery cheapo soup you get at foodcourt, although the price is affordable.

The toast is neither too hard, crispy nor soft, crunchy and I would come back from their crepes in the near future. It was no doubt a healthy breakfast to start off the day. French-cuisine lovers, fall in now! They have two other outlets at Plaza Singapura and Aljunied.

Located at level 1 at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, Au Chocolat is a restaurant offering French cuisine and specialize in chocolate and candy. Beside the dining bistro, this confiserie is filled to every corner with goodies for young and old. 

Chocolate and candy wonderland

Be treated to the colourful combinations of the exterior and you would be tempted to buy some and try. I swear the tarts and pastries in France is amazingly good. For a start, we were here for their brunch following reviews of the much-hype of Au Chocolat.

The Menu

Meet Danielle, an 8 year old French girl 

Danielle and two other dog companions is the main characters of Au Chocolat. Together they embark on special adventures filled with joy and hoping that all it's customer would experience the same excitement during their visit here.

Quite interesting concept isn't it? This definitely set those children thinking somehow. Here comes our food...

Ultimate Benedict $22

Don't be deceived by the small portion of this Ultimate Benedict. It sure look small from the picture but it's adequate portion to share for two. The crispy bacon is really unique and the combination consist of eibeye steak, roasted chicken and scramble egg. (We actually request for scramble egg instead of 2 poached egg!) The hollandaise sauce completes the meal for two hungry people in the afternoon!

Pardon me I actually forgot the name of the mushroom crepe. It's heavenly good as well. We couldn't finish the portion because the portion of the mushroom is just way too much. The cream sauce match perfectly with the crepe. Writing this post makes me hungry already.

If you haven't been to Au Chocolat, head down and give it a try!
