L'eclair by Sarah Michelle

Went to L'eclair by Sarah Michelle with zq somewhere in December. It's started by two female-Sarah and Michelle, hence the name.

Signature Chicken Bacon Pie with a mini salad ($12). The pie was really good. The pastry was perfect- sweet and buttery which went well with the savoury creamy filling where you could taste the smoky bacon. The salad dressed in balsamic with cherry tomatoes, sliced almond, dried cranberries was refreshing. Both of us really like LOVE the pie!

I got the Speculoos ($7.50?)- Speculoos cream, craquelin choux, chocolate snowman. The snowman looks really cute like a plastic toy but in fact it's made out of chocolate. The speculoos cream in the eclair was thick with hints of speculoos. Not my kind of eclair. I prefer those with cream that are more lighter. But I like the slightly sweet, crackly and crunchy top on this eclair which provided some texture.
For drinks, I had Iced Matcha Latte ($6). I think I should have gotten the hot one instead as there were chunks of undissolved matcha powder in the tea which made it hard to drink.

The eclair's filling...

Zq got the Ispahan ($8.50) Light rose cream, cut lychees, fresh raspberries. I like their rose petal decoration with the shiny sparkle on their pink sugar topping that zq noticed. The cream for this was lighter which was good. There were also chunks of lychee.
For drinks she got the Earl Grey Latte ($5.50). It was really nice, warm, milky with the taste of earl grey.

Rate:
Signature Chicken Bacon Pie: 10/10 ☺
Speculoos: 5.5/10 ☺
Iced Matcha Latte: 5/10 ☺
Ispahan: 6/10 ☺
Earl Grey Latte: 7/10 ☺
