Chef Clement has prepared garlic tarragon chicken for me.

again, its wrapped in pastry.....



chef clement cutting open the pastry.....



the chicken revealed....



a closer view...



the chicken is so so good. Its very fragrant especially after clement cuts it open. The fragrant just diffuses into the air....

my 3rd time having chicken at Helio and each time, the chicken is always so tender. Even the breast meat area. The taste is the very natural type, not overpowering yet makes u linger for more.

see wat i mean by its very soft? how often can u finish the chicken till its so clean...



its because its so easy to cut it apart from the bones. Costs $18.90. According to Chef Clement, he has about 5 different flavours for these pastry chicken. My previous visit i tried the rosemary seedless grapes. I'll probably be back to try the other kind. Comparing the rosemary seedless grapes with this garlic tarragon, i prefer this garlic tarragon.

Also, Chef clement is also selling tubs of biscotti for CNY...



thin pieces, very crispy. He was saying he finds those selling outside are generally too sweet. His is not as sweet.

Those dat i've tried outside, i found them to be too hard and too tasteless. haha.. but i find his just nice so i got a tub at $20...



he has 2 flavours for biscotti. One is pistachio and almond (i think.. cant remember which 2 nuts he said). Another is with chocolate chip and another kind of nut. i got the nuts one.. nice!

According to Lea, his pineapple tarts are super good. Melts in the mouth kind. too bad they are sold out already. =(

I bought a tub of biscotti as well. I thought he only had two varieties though, chocolate and almond. The tarts were quite good, I was given a little sample =D
