Utterly exquisite, the lineup for Sommer Dining’s Autumn Inspiration menu ($198) was sublime. Hits after hits, the lunch course starts with a lovely tray of homemade bread with an umami plate of normandy butter infused with chopped shio kombu. However, what really kickstarts the meal for me was their warm pre-appetizer. A flavourful bowl of garlic custard with Jerusalem artichoke and a beautiful confit egg yolk right at the center topped with roasted koshihikari rice. Real luscious and comforting with the well-harmonized savoury flavours; it had me scraping the bottom to get all that goodness.
