Babett Joins Global ‘Gout de France’ Feast

BY DUNCAN HINES More than 3,000 restaurants across five continents are participating a ginormous celebration of French gastronomy this month. Luckily enough, one of them is in downtown Yangon—Babett Eatery & Bar, which for all of March offers an authentic taste of France’s mountainous Auvergne region.

French Executive Chef Christophe Buzare curated the five-course menu in line with “Gout de France” or “Good France,” a whopping French feast involving the country’s embassies and overseen by its foreign affairs ministry and legendary chef Alain Ducasse. Myanmore Awards 2018 Newcomer of the Year Babett has a selection of quality wines like the zesty Chateau Haut Mondain White Bordeaux and the woody Chateau du Cavalier Blaye to pair with the dishes.

First up is a smooth foie gras terrine in Armagnac with a dollop of red onion marmalade and a fruity chutney-style side and crusty baguette. The wooden platter compliments its rustic look and the foie gras terrine is a rare treat—especially in Yangon. Then a hearty duck confit and cabbage soup transports the taster straight to some medieval village in Haute-Loire, with a delicious broth infused with shaved black truffle and full of crisp vegetables.

The two mains are a herby, salty sea bass fillet soaking in a creamy mussel sauce and a charcoal-grilled lamb, lightly charred and roasted slow. Both of these dishes are mouth-watering, particularly the lamb, which sits on braised prunes cooked for four hours. Out comes a large jar for dessert, harboring a cloud of applewood smoke that disappears to reveal pan-friend strawberries on a brioche perdue, served with sweet gingerbread ice cream.

An option of the Basque country’s sheep milk cheese ossau irraty is available for 7,000 kyats, while the whole five-courses cost 75,000 kyats++.

Address: N.5 Alan Pya Pagoda Street Hours: 7am-12am/1am daily Telephone: (95) 1243 639

"The Best European Taste and So Delicious Pork Chop , Pizza and G Board. The best Atmosphere and Good Place For Chill With Your Friends. Great and Amazing."
