A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of going with my friend Jes to Bistro Lilly, to enjoy a five course degustation in the CBD, she had bought the meal off one of those coupon/deal websites and it also included a bottle of wine. I had never heard of the restaurant and wasn’t quite sure what to expect but the menu did sound really good, and had a strong French influence. I knew a big meal was going to occur, so I limited my food intake during the day to ensure I could fit everything in.
The meal started with an amuse bouche (to excite the taste buds and prepare you for the meal), a small roasted capsicum soup with creme fraiche and chives.
