Western

From the ᴠᴀʟᴇɴᴛɪɴᴇ's sᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟs menu: 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐰𝐤 ($52+); Roasted Pork, Hot Honey Mustard, Roasted Cabbage Slaw ❤️

The Blackened Tomahawk came in a close 2nd in my top list, but as I'm someone who removes chunks of fat from my food (Does Not Spark Joy 😔) - I can't call it my favourite. Not the pork's fault, though... 😂

This was my favourite of the ʙɪɢɢᴇʀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴇs menu, albeit at a higher price point. The beef was flavourful & tender; very much a joy to eat. It also had a unique variety of flavours from the accompaniments alongside!

First-time visit to Pilot & I was impressed by their quality food - served in sharing-style portions, & priced affordably. The good variety of wine options certainly helps, too.

When you & your friends eat SO MUCH that all your food photos can’t even fit in Instagram’s Carousel… I count my blessings, not my calories 😛

They serve up Japanese-European fare & cocktails in a cosy, small space with warm mood lighting - great for a romantic date night (we were the only table there).. Although I understand they are also booked out for parties as well, which can get pretty wild.

👆🏻 That was the explanation given to me when I was informed that the chef wasn't in that day (is it he hungover, lol). Would've appreciated being informed beforehand, but since I was there already .... It is what it is.

The word "speakeasy" is thrown around increasingly often nowadays... Entrance somewhat falls into this space, being somewhat incognito & located on the 2nd floor - through the brass door of unit 22A on the ground floor.

Why hello there. I'm always up for some beef tartare - especially since I can't eat raw fish, I might as well eat other kinds of raw stuff to make up for it...

LeVeL33's Hand-Cut Beef Tartare ($24++) came recommended to me by several foodie friends - & I'm glad that it lived up to expectations. Shared this amongst our party of 4 & it was enjoyed by all.

It tastes as delightful as it looks! Fun fact: The shallots are pickled in LeVeL33's Blond Lager 😉 Give the yolk a good mix in & enjoy how creamy it is with the handcut beef. The pickled cucumbers, capers & mustard lend acidity to balance this out in every mouthful.

Lumo is a perfect cosy space for date night - unfortunately I didn't take a photo (only a video), so you'll have to take my word for it. Here's a picture of my favourite dish of the night instead: Bone Marrow on Sourdough ($28++), from their Meats menu.

The melt-in-your-mouth marrow & veal jus was so flavourful.. Spread on the slices of toasted crispy sourdough, this was quite divine & addictive. The yellow frisée salad tossed in a light vinaigrette lent some acidity to cut through the gelatinous bites of goodness - t'was refreshing.

Shared this with a friend, but honestly I could've eaten this on my own, teehee. Thumbs up from me.

Considering how the dining space at The Seagrill isn't large, the menu here is quite sizeable. Quite atypically, I appreciated this al fresco dining spot along Changi Beach, made even more comfortable with the cool breeze in the evening.

There was one pesky housefly that kept bothering me & my dinner (maybe cos we sat at the outermost tables), but I'd attribute that to how scrumptious the food is.
