Inspired by the French bistro style, Chef Jerome Merlo of The Temple Caf\u00e9 is aiming to provide authentic French food in a relaxed atmosphere. This Spring, Chef Jerome presents French Bistro in an organic and healthy way \u2013 using the vegetables and herbs from The Temple House\u2019s very own Herb Garden. Come and be pleasantly-surprised by these refreshing and creative bistro- style dishes.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000080\">Chef Jerome\u2019s recommendations from the The Temple Caf\u00e9\u2019s Spring new menu:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Parmesan Waffle, Marinated Mushroom, Pecan nuts, Cream cheese and greens<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The waffle is made of parmesan cheese and beer that make a very unique taste and texture. We use high quality mushrooms to enrich this dish and give it a forest influence. Pecans bring some crunch to it, and the cream cheese comes to blend everything together. To finish we have herbs such as Parsley, carrot sprouts and fresh dill that transport us to our garden. This dish is an assemblage of different ideas, it is quite a modern bite that would please vegetarian and cheese lovers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mustard Iberico Pork chop served with Black Quinoa and Broccoli<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We use the best Pork quality for this recipe, the famous Iberico black skin pork. It is much more juicy and tasty than any other pork. We serve this dish with black quinoa, being very rich in nutritive benefits, and adding a little crunchy feeling. Then seared broccoli and a gentle cauliflower puree bring delicacy to the dish. My father always use to cook mustard pork chops at home, and this charred mustard flavor left an everlasting sensation in my best food memories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long-cooked Red Wine Beef Roll, Orange Glazed Carrots, Bread Crumbs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When I learned the basics of cooking in Catering school of La Rochelle, we participated a contest where we had to present a long cook beef recipe. In that time I had in mind the Pot au Feu, but I wanted to give it an extra richness and flavor. So I opened a very old book of Escoffier, the \u201cfather\u201d of French cuisine, and that\u2019s where I discovered the beef Miroton. Many cuisines, including Chinese, recooked two to three times some meat to bring an extra flavor or texture. This time I used the classic Beef Bourguignon, marinated and cooked in red wine for hours. Joshua, our executive chef, gave me the inspiration of the orange glazed carrots and the breadcrumbs to bring a memorable touch to this dish.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/06\/20170316-The-Temple-Cafe-Spring-New-Menu-Farm-to-Table-EN.pdf\">Full Press Release English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/06\/20170316-The-Temple-Cafe-Spring-New-Menu-Farm-to-Table-CN.pdf\">Full Press Release \u4e2d\u6587<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thetemplehousehotel.com\">The Temple House Website<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Temple Caf\u00e9 has yet again set the trend in Chengdu \u2013 applying \u201cFarm to Table\u201d concept into its Spring new menu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":20793,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[92,91],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20830","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-members-news","category-west-china-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20830","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20830"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20830\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20833,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20830\/revisions\/20833"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/20793"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20830"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20830"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westchina.austcham.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20830"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
