Fancy-Slash-Modern

Platter of jamon serrano, bresaola and spicy salami, served with focaccia bread. Nice and salty (yep, salttttt in a good way) start to the meal, or to munch on with a sip of wine.

Nice and buttery grilled fish, with a generous bed of greens on top (which we highly appreciate after an incredibly filling start of the meal). The shio kombu butter is the winning element — boasting depth and savoury goodness.

In case I haven’t mentioned, this smart casual restobar that quietly cropped up in TTDI is absolutely the place to be if you like to eat. The concept centres around their charcoal grill, and as a result, everything that comes off it has a lovely smokiness.

We started our night on these, wonderfully creamy and cumin-y eggplant with the bright crunchy bursts of pomegranate and fragrant fried shallots.

How are sweet potatoes this good? Ask Ember. Nailing the caramelised, crisp-skinned cook on the sweet potatoes, the dish also features piquant ulam raja and smoked yoghurt below. Sweet, rich with a crunchy zing. Yum.

Also overheard someone come in to dapao this. Can totally imagine munching on a plate of this for a kinda healthy, very delicious tv dinner.

Cold wanton mee-reminiscent noodles tossed in lovely ponzu sauce, served with sweet pear slices and smoked duck. Interestingly, the simply but excellent done noodles stood out much more than the meat here.
