10 March 2010:
By 'marche', no reference is made to the farmer's market in France.
Marche is the Swiss chain of casual restaurants with pick-and-choose-your-dishes from a variety of stalls. I like the idea of swiping my cards at small stalls just hugging one another under a common roof, offering a broad range of appetizers and desserts. The food is above average for some dishes like salads and soups; the ambience is also much more relaxing when the music is not blasting.
*Anmitsu: beans, green tea ice cream, rice cake & jelly cubes*
There is a better-than-average Ichigoo shochyuu as well going for S$9 a glass, rather highly priced item at this place.
I was surprised to find my comfort food here. Once I got ill and came here for the vegetarian claypot (yasai nabe) from which I got immediate relief from fatique.
I don't really frequent this place because twice I had to eat with blasting music in the background, but other times I did not. So unless I am not hungry I will not make a gamble.
*Mitsumame (bean and jelly dessert) and variations*
This place triumphs for its variety though not necessarily excellence in quality. For example, I find its kushi ryouri disappointing. It's still good for a casual weekend meal, overall.
