Over the weekend, I had the honour & luxury to be able to try out re-invented creations by the smart chefs of @lune_3.0 in their collaboration with @amberembersg!

Each dish was a take on the revolving theme of 米 (rice in mandarin), and how it originated and what inspired them to make each dish.

One of the highlights from the 7 course menu would be their Quail & Yam dish! Quail is done 2 ways - braised and pan-seared, paired with a red wine jus, together with a yam & sweet potato purée, coasted with rice vermicelli, resembling the crispy yam ring that you’d get when you dine at Chinese restaurants!

The quail was flavoured perfectly and was tender even though it was lean. My fav part of the dish would actually be the yam & sweet potato crispy. The sweetness of the sweet potato paired so well with the hint of bitterness of the yam; and binding them both together is the deep fried crispy rice vermicelli which added the additional crunch to this dish, elevating it another notch.

Flip through to see more of these amazing dishes that were created, which will be shared more on Burpple! In the meantime, if you’re keen to tryout their creations, do check out their Instagram account @lune_3.0, & make your reservations for the upcoming weekends in Aug! Do note that the themes vary week on week so you’d definitely be in for a surprise!

Psssst, I heard the upcoming one is on Fermentation!!

Thank you @clarenceliewoliveiro for the invite & the amazing team behind it!
