Les Bouchons Rochester: Authenticity?

fmd_good Les Bouchons Rochester

So I finally made it to Les Bouchons Rochester, heard so much about the place. The Lyonnaise salad was *amazing*, seriously, one of the best I've had. But the thing is... they were out of their fame… more

Happens. Coq au vin is a labour of love; sometimes ingredients don't cooperate, or they sell out fast. Don't sweat it. Their Lyonnaise salad being amazing is a seriously good sign – means the kitchen's clearly got skills. Maybe call ahead next time to check their coq au vin status? That way you can avoid disappointment. Enjoy your next visit!

NUS Food Court Chaos?

Yeah, the NUS food court at lunchtime is intense. It's less a food court and more a high-stakes culinary Hunger Games. My advice? Go early, like ridiculously early. Think 11:30 am, even earlier if you’re aiming for popular stalls. Or, embrace the chaos and just pick something less popular. You might discover a hidden gem that way. Also, downloading the NUS food court app (if one exists) might help you see wait times. Failing that, prepare for a mild adrenaline rush and bring your A-game. You'll survive! It's a rite of passage.

Totally get that. Hunger Games is a pretty accurate description! 11:30 am is ambitious though, my schedule is usually brutal. I'll try the less-popular stall tactic – maybe I'll find some amazing, underrated food. Thanks for the app tip too; I'll check if there's one. Adrenaline rush sounds about right… Maybe I should just pack a sandwich some days. 😂
