"Cheng Teng" Ice, Longans, Red Dates, Black Sago Pearls. This was pretty much a modern interpretation of the local Cheng Tng. Upon serving, the Cheng Tng will be poured into the Cheng Tng ice. Cheng Tng flavour was more prominent in the ice than the liquid, though still pretty light tasting as the other ingredients such as dates and longan were served together in the bowl with the pear. What makes this so appealing was the pear; subtly sweet from its own but with a hint of Jasmine aroma, which makes it pretty uplifting.
Quality dim sum and yummy desserts! Dim sum brunch at Cherry Garden only available on weekends 11am to 3pm. Love the place and food.
This is their Seafood Tower (1 tier $90/2 tiers $190) - chef's choice of the freshest catch which would always include their signature oysters (Hama Hama, Blue Pool, Eld Inlet). Yowsers, anchors away matey!
Capesante - pan-fried scallops, truffle and parmigiano fondue, caviar. #casatartufo #food #tgif
Saint Pierre is one of the top French restaurants in Singapore for all the right reasons. There is a strong emphasis on organic, wholesome produce coupled with top-notch service and a calming waterfront view (it’s vegetarian friendly too). Go for the Discovery menu at $148 per head, and tuck into a nine-course extravaganza featuring delectable dishes like seared scallops with black truffle essence and cauliflower mousse, herb crusted langoustine, and charred joshgyu beef sirloin. Interested in a completely different dining experience? Mark April Fool’s and Halloween on your calendars and try to snag one of the limited seats to sample chef Emmanuel Stroobant’s creative dinner menus for said occasions – think edible eye balls and a dessert called “You see, the brain itself feels no pain, if that concerns you”…

Was disappointed with this because it wasn't even served warm. Would have been so much better if it was made fresh upon order

This fairly new Japanese restaurant in Capitol Piazza will make you forget all these chirashi bowls with their OKAMOCHI BOX ($45) — a Japanese-style 'tingkat' that was commonplace in Japan during the Edo period. You'll be amazed as the server slides the front panel of wooden box to reveal three levels of awesomeness. The first drawer reveals a sprawling landscape of barachirashi — huge chunks of fish, prawn, tamago and ikura atop pearly rice, while the second tier contains side dishes including grilled chicken and salad. At the bottom, you’ll find sheets of seaweed, makisu (bamboo mat), a rice paddle, plus the usual condiments, everything you need for some hands-on fun! This generous portion makes it very value-for-money, and you can share this with a friend along with another dish. Ryu's also boasts fantastic sakes, and is a lovely, elegant spot that shouldn't be missed.
With three live stations — teppanyaki, sushi and robatayaki — it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the vast selection offered in Mikuni’s menu. While the excellent Unagi Don ($48) and superb Kagoshima Wagyu Beef Don ($48, comes with a battered crispy egg!) are understandable default options for most, save the Mikuni Chirashi ($90) to pamper yourself or someone you're dying to impress. You might think for a second that you were given a sashimi platter instead, cos the mound of rice is hidden underneath decadent slices of salmon, tuna belly, prawn, uni, tamago and a spoonful of ikura. Pricey? Yes, but so worth it!
Ginza Kuroson launches its second outlet in Takashimaya, and lovers of Japanese food need to check it out immediately! Apart from the impressive space – there is a seafood display, robatayaki counter and even a teppanyaki room – Ginza Kuroson offers a wide (and often uncommon) range of fresh, high-quality Japanese fare in a classy setting at a very accessible price point. Their lunch sets are highly value-for-money, and you should go for the Ryoshi Gokai Nagekomi Don ($22) or the Tempura Don ($26). If you like sushi, don't miss the exquisite-looking Temari Sushi Set ($28). If you happen to be here at a quieter hour, try your luck and ask for one of their private rooms (no additional charge) and instantly feel like an atas tai-tai.
