Western

The Dry Seafood Laksa Spaghetti ($18.50) was a pleasant surprise. The laksa sauce was very flavourful and it came with a generous serving of prawns, clams, squid, fish cake, tau pok, boiled egg and thick beehoon. Enjoyed this more than I expected!

Roast Chicken, Grapes and Pepper Jus ($36) is so good. The spring chicken is sous vide for 6 hours and slowly roasted, resulting in a plump and juicy chicken. The potato purée and roasted vegetables are drizzled in a winey pepper jus and the myriad of flavours complement one another.

Chorizo Shashuka ($32) features baked egg in tomato stew with spicy chorizo sausages, roasted potatoes, feta cheese, fresh herbs and paprika. Served with crispy toasted bread, this is one irresistible flavour bomb.

I’m not a big fan of cream-based pasta in general, but the Miso Carbonara Udon ($26) is delicious! The fresh Japanese udon goes surprisingly well with the house carbonara sauce that is thoroughly infused with the aroma from the bacon. The sauce is smooth, light and not jelak at all. Topped with an onsen egg, seaweed and shaved parmesan, this is one satisfying fusion udon that I would love to order again.

Finally checked out the Atlas Afternoon Tea ($65) which comes with a variety of sweet and savoury bites with your choice of tea / coffee / beverage. The interior is stunning and it looks like a scene from The Great Gatsby🤵🏻

The savoury items include:
- Brioche with truffled egg and chives
- Lobster on crystal bread
- Vol-au-vent with smoked salmon rillette and kaluga caviar
- Tomato basil arancini gougère with farmers bacon and comté
- Rosatella espuma with shrimp

The sweet items include:
- Scones, jam and clotted cream
- Banana almond eclair
- French canelés
- Popcorn custard ball
- Ruby chocolate truffle
- Pistachio cannoli mille-feuille
- Madeleines

The savoury bites are tasty and satisfying. The sweet items are pretty varied (i.e. not mostly cakes) and the French canelés are good. There is also a wide selection of tea to choose from and I really like the Muscat White tea, which is lightly fruity with a strong scent of honey. What an indulgent afternoon!

This is what comfort food looks like on a cold rainy day🌧️ The Baked Eggs ($21) features a rich tomato stew with runny egg, pancetta, chorizo, ham and baby spinach, topped with almond and feta and served with house-made sourdough. The stew is creamy, smooth and flavourful - a wonderful match with buttered sourdough. Impressed!

The Truffle Fungi ($24) is delicious! The al dente linguine and mushroom are sautéed in a truffle-infused sauce and the flavours go so well together. The sauce is savoury and not overly creamy, and a generous sprinkle of Grana Padano cheese adds a lovely pull to the pasta. This exceeded my expectations!

This is my first visit to Seng House and I love their Hainanese Pork Chop ($23.50). The Iberico pork is coated in cream cracker crumbs and deep fried - it is moist on the inside and crispy and fragrant on the outside. The pork chop is drizzled in sweet and sour tomato sauce and served with fries - so good!

The Prawn Aglio Olio ($18.90) features al dente spaghetti and tiger prawns in olive oil, garlic and chilli flakes. This is fragrant and tasty.

The Hainanese Pork Chop ($16.90) is another classic. The breaded pork loin is crispy and firm without being tough. The tomato sauce has just the right balance of sweet and sour notes and the fries are great.

The star of the day would have to be the Traditional Hainanese Oxtail Stew ($32.90). The oxtail is fall apart tender and it literally melts in your mouth. The rich sauce is throughly infused with the flavour of the oxtail and the carrots, potato and bread go really well with delicious sauce. So good!

Bravery Chicken Ragu ($18) features a piece of herbed chicken thigh on top of al dente spaghetti tossed with mushroom and roasted vegetables in creamy ragout sauce. The chicken is tender and moist, while the sauce is creamy but not too heavy. Cream pasta is not usually my first choice of pasta but this was enjoyable. The portion is very generous as well. Yums!
