This is from a restaurant that has been nominated to be Best Restaurant of the Year by @worldgourmetsummit. Coterie Concepts is famous for their bars – Sum Yi Tai, Mona Lounge, and Eliza Cocktail Bar. And Chi Kinjo is the first outlet under this group that is planned to have food as its focus, and drinks second.

I have just dropped by to try Chef Ace @ace_tan_sg's new creation, the wagyu with Jerusalem artichoke, and there are two things I really like about this. Their juicy pink centre of the wagyu with crisp seared exterior; and the fried Jerusalem artichoke with mush, sweet centre. Served with garlic chives (青龙菜), and generous amount of Jerusalem artichoke sauce to go with the steak.
🔸
It's really a showcase of Chef Ace's skills. The secret to juicy pink centre is all about the timing and temperature of the grilling and resting, while the Jerusalem artichoke when through a 3-step process of boiling, baking and deep frying.

And of course, with award winning Group Chief Bartender Sam Wong @boatqauyahsam overseeing this place, you can expect great drinks here as well.
