A Healthy Touch of French Delicacy - Le Cleret Brasserie

Decorated by a colour scheme of white and turquoise, and accompanied with pleasant music, Le Cleret Brasserie creates a relaxing Southern French Mediterranean atmosphere where customers can wind down from their daily hustle and bustle, and enjoy specialty dishes.

Ivan, Chief Chef of the restaurant mentioned that the owner of Le Cleret Brasserie also runs a business in healthy foods; hence, the dishes are freshly made from healthy ingredients. As the restaurant specializes in healthy meals delicately prepared by their chefs, it has become a trend amongst female professionals working nearby the restaurant as well as health conscious gourmets.

Ivan believed that cooking is all about the combination of characteristics and textures of different ingredients. For instance, meat seasoning with simple natural ingredients including lemon juice, papaya juice or a just a dash of salt and sugar, can already bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients.

The restaurant itself is also a popular party or meeting venue for companies and private functions. Healthy and delectable party packages which include salads and one selection of meat or seafood main course is specially designed and prepared by Ivan.
Ivan is always looking for new recipe ideas to perfect his culinary repertoire. He, for instance, uses porcini mushrooms instead of cream to enhance the flavour in Italian pasta. His latest culinary creation include a sauce delicately made from raspberry and lemon juice, which is appetizing, refreshing and flavourful.
