Vineyard at HortPark

For $8++, this was a wonderful serving of garlic bread. Very crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside! It was coated with a generous layer of butter and small pieces of garlic. However, it would have been better if the garlic paste were more evenly spread, as the two pieces on top were less tasty than the rest. Great as a starter and definitely helps to fill your tummy at Vineyard!

The meat was very tender and flavourful while the skin was crispy. One of the best duck confits I've tried. Wished that the serving size was bigger, cos it was gone in 10mins.

The pork chop is decent tho a little dry, and served without any carbs. For the price, I don’t think it is worth coming back to this place.

One of the most flavoured duck confit I have eaten, but the portion is small and the duck a tad drier than most duck confits. The barley risotto complements the duck well. Overall, a nice dish but definitely not filling at all.

The duck leg was tender and flavourful, with a nice crispy skin. The juicy duck meat went well with the sweet Marsala jus and the soft barley risotto it was served alongside.

While it was a decent dish overall, it is hard to justify the high price point. However, it is a good choice for those who want a poultry dish other than chicken, and for those able to use the Burpple Beyond deals.

Using the prized Carnaroli rice in place of the typical Arborio rice, one would expect the risotto to be creamy and decadent. While Vineyard’s version was definitely smooth and creamy, the risotto was a little watery and there was a puddle of stock left behind in the bowl.

However, the risotto was very flavourful, and one can definitely taste the mushrooms in the dish. The accompanying enoki crisps on top added a nice crunch, while pieces of mozzarella cheese added an additional richness that complemented the dish well.
