The Bistrot Pierre - Derby Menu caters to a wide range of tastes, showcasing seasonal ingredients and classic French techniques.
Starters set the tone with refined options like the Pâté de Campagne, a rustic country-style terrine served with sourdough toast and chutney, and the delicate Calamars, lightly battered squid with a garlic aioli dip. For mains, the Boeuf Bourguignon stands out-a rich, slow-cooked beef stew in red wine sauce, served with creamy mash. Another highlight is the Poulet Printanier, a pan-fried chicken breast accompanied by asparagus, peas, and a light herb sauce, blending comfort with freshness.
Seafood lovers can opt for the Filet de Saumon, grilled salmon with roasted vegetables and a citrus beurre blanc. For vegetarians, the Ravioles aux Champignons-mushroom ravioli in a tarragon cream-delivers deep, earthy flavours with finesse. The prix fixe menus, particularly the 2- or 3-course lunch and early evening deals, offer excellent value and a well-curated variety.
Desserts are irresistible, especially the Crème Brûlée with its perfectly torched top, and the indulgent Tarte au Citron, served with crème Chantilly. The wine list complements the menu with French regional selections, while the Kir Royale and French 75 cocktails add a celebratory note to any meal.
