Bistro/Bar/Cocktail

A tropical mix of light rum, coconut cream, pineapple, and lime, intended to deliver a smooth, creamy, and refreshing taste. However, it was a letdown, as the coconut and pineapple flavours felt negligible.

This cocktail features Dark Rum, Batida Coconut, Pecan Praline, Taro Ice Cream, Pumpkin, Milk, Autumn Spice, Himalayan Pink Salt. The booze is strong, and the milky texture reminds me of melon sago. It comes with chips and replica abacus seeds, adding to the theme. However, the taro flavour was quite subtle, and overall, this was our least favourite, feeling like a letdown.

Made with Gin, Vodka, White Grape and Orchid Cordial, Midori Melon Liqueur, Fresh Citrus, Peach Bitters, Orchird Scent. A sweet and zesty cocktail, with a vibrant green hue that blends floral and fruity notes, inspired by the flower display inside the dome. A great choice for those who enjoy light, refreshing and citrusy drinks.

Made with Gin, St Germain Elderflower, Fresh Citrus, Hibiscus Cordial, Rosé Wine, Grapefruit & Plum Infused Ice, Soda Stream. A sweet, fizzy, and refreshingly light floral cocktail inspired by the dazzling light show at Gardens by the Bay. The drink keeps you immersed with its ever-changing hues, and as the infused ice melts, the flavours evolve for a dynamic sipping experience. A lovely option to try, especially for those who enjoy sweet, delicate, aromatic drinks.

A bold and unconventional mix featuring Rittenhouse Rye, Fernet Branca, Rosso Antico Sweet Vermouth, Cointreau, Honey, Angostura Bitters, Sea Coconut, and Gui Ling Gao Jelly. Perfect for those with an adventurous palate or looking for something wild, as the boozy punch is quite strong. Expect medicinal notes, balanced with a minty freshness and cooling effect. Bonus points for the charming tortoise teapot it’s served in, it definitely adds to the experience!

A delightful twist on the classic English dessert, made with Chinese dates and longans. Topped with longan caramel and paired with a creamy scoop of vanilla ice cream. The intense date flavour shines through, while the pudding itself is moist, soft, and stickily like bread pudding. Served warm with the cold ice cream, the contrast is beautifully balanced. Despite the naturally sweet ingredients, the dessert hits just the right level of sweetness and was pleasantly smooth without overwhelming the palate. Definitely worth trying!

A fragrant and indulgent tart featuring musky cempedak and a rich, sweet yet zesty calamansi custard. Topped with silky coconut espuma, dehydrated calamansi, and crunchy cempedak crisps for contrast. The tart base had the texture like soft cookie, breaking effortlessly with minimal force while still holding everything together. The balance of sweetness and zestiness is well-executed, making for a tastisfying bite overall.

A luscious take on the classic Italian dessert, featuring a creamy, custardy base layered with tangy passion fruit coulis. Topped with popping lychee spheres and freeze-dried lychees, elegantly plated for a refined presentation. Smooth, rich, and balancing sour-sweet notes, though I find it leaning toward the tart side and potentially too sharp for some.

Always room for desserts.✨

After a long wait (thanks to a missed order), the lobster finally made its way to Singapore. 🙄🦞 Toasted brioche roll filled with fresh, chunky, sweet lobster meat, spiced with a local laksa blend of coconut, boiled egg, and lemon, then topped with laksa leaves. Served with fries and mesclun salad drizzled in vinaigrette dressing. The laksa flavour is mild enough to appeal to most, including tourists, as it’s not spicy at all. While the lobster itself was cold, the brioche was hot and crusty on the outside, staying fluffy inside. A nice twist, but not mind-blowing. Thick-cut fries were a highlight, better texture compared to their shoestring version.

I don’t usually have much expectations for duck confit, as it is often aged, dry, and lacking in crisp skin or tenderness. You get me. But this place truly impressed with their version, using succulent Silverhill Irish duck legs, gently slow-cooked in rich duck fat for a silky finish. Crisped to perfection, achieving a golden, crackling exterior while retaining a juicy core. Generously drizzled with a luscious foie gras and red wine sauce, complemented by a bright mandarin orange salsa, indulgent foie gras, and expertly roasted baby potatoes. The meat is exceptionally tender and moist, effortlessly peeling off the bone, packed with deep, flavourful richness.
