Le Périgord

Restoran Le Périgord, Penang (15 September 2012)

Le Périgord (GPS: 5.42829, 100.31442) is a restaurant in Pulau Tikus, Penang. Located on Burmah Road. It opened on 1 January, 2016, by a young husband and wife team of Bruce and Michelle, with a few partners. Michelle happened to be a friend of an old friend of mine, and she introduced Michelle to me. Both of Michelle and Bruce had studied in Australia, where Bruce trained under a famous chef, Jacques Reymond. There was once when Chef Reymond served to Bruce a wonderful aromatic truffle which came from Le Périgord, a place in the Aquitaine region of southwestern France. That truffle inspired Bruce and his partners for the name of the restaurant.

Le Périgord serves a combination of fusion and Modern European cuisine. To whet the local appetite for its dishes, the restaurant has created set meals for lunch at only RM19.90 nett. The set lunch includes the soup of the day and drink. Diners can select a main course comprising either Salmon Teriyaki served with butter rice and seasonal vegetables; Tonkatsu - free range pork loin deep fried with panko and served with seasonal vegetables; or Aglio Olio pasta with squid, chilli flakes, olive oil, garlic and onion.

Le Périgord is open daily from 11:30 am in the morning until 10:30 pm.

Updates from Le Périgord

May 2016: Le Périgord informs me of the latest additions and updates to their menu.

For a perfectly healthy breakfast, they are now offering Bircher Muesli with yoghurt, sultanas and granula. It's a good way to open one's appetite and kickstart a hectic day. I am told that their salami on toasted focaccia with pesto spread, sundried tomatoes and cheese is one of their best sellers for breakfast. In addition, they have a "classic big breakfast", with which diners can choose scrambled or poached eggs on sour dough, bacon, avocado, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes.
