My fifth visit here and I can't seem to get enough if it! Due to the ban on dinner dine-in, they are no longer doing the longer festive menu but Chef Olivier very kindly did the 6-course Signature Menu for me. The meal as usual started with delectable small bites and their excellent freshly baked sourdough with caviar butter. The first course was their signature Hokkaido sea urchin and gamerboni tartare, which I had had before and still enjoyed as much. The umami was simply heavenly. The second course, Brittany sole fish with wild mushrooms and yellow wine sauce was equally outstanding. I've never really liked sole fish before as I always thought it was bland and tasteless, but this one had a subtle sweetness to the firm, meaty flesh that I truly appreciated. However, the star of the dish was definitely the yellow wine sauce, which matched well with the delicate favour of the fish and elevated the whole concept to the next level. Then came the French abalone "Rossini style", with a whole piece of seared and caramelised foie gras on top. Chef Olivier very generously shaved some winter black truffle on the dish, and I wiped the plate clean. The main course was A3 Kagoshima wagyu tenderloin with red wine sauce. This dish totally surprised me! The meat wasn't too fatty but was incredibly soft and flavourful. Possibly one of best tenderloins I've ever had! The next course was supposed to be a cheese course but I don't really like to have plain cheese too much (and cheeses are invariably too filling for me after all those foregoing dishes), so I asked to change to a dessert instead, which meant I had two desserts instead of one cheese platter and one dessert. The quince came in a chocolate egg shell and was a rather refreshing one. The pear millefeuille was interesting in that it didn't take the traditional form of millefeuille but was rather a cylindrical roll that somewhat resembled a cigar. Lastly, even though I was already very full by that time, the gorgeous petit fours trolley arrived, and I couldn't resist picking a good few of the sweets and pastries! It's always a pleasure to visit L'Envol and I can safely say they are my favourite French restaurant in town. Many thanks to Chef Olivier!
