Le Quartier

Le Quartier is one of the famous French restaurants in the Senopati area. With its cosy, homelike atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot to visit at any time of day, whether for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. One standout dish is the escargot, where snails are cooked in aromatic, buttery garlic. Served on a bed of mushrooms, it adds a delightful chewy texture and a rich, umami flavour.

Not only that, the desserts are also quite varied. There is Crêpe Suzette with a sweet and tangy Mandarin orange jam that is refreshing. Then, there is fondant au chocolat, which is a soft molten chocolate cake with a sweet and slightly bitter chocolate filling that is aromatic.
