So, what did we have that night?
Lobster Gratin

It’s highly recommended featuring the whole lobster mixed with a creamy béchamel sauce and crisp melted cheese topping. For the first 20 early birds, diners are able to enjoy it at S$19.00++ and subsequent at S$29.00++. I would say it is a good deal not to be missed.
And this dish is also available in 2-course and 4- course set lunch menus as well.

Tuna & Peach Salad S$14.00++

Refreshing thinly sliced fresh tuna with peach, tomato and salad before the mains.

Burrata & Tomato Salad S$14.00++

A good start before the main is served. The combination of creamy burrata and fresh, juicy tomatoes are just perfect together with the pesto dressing.

Beef Tenderloin & Foie Gras S$29.00++

Beautifully plated beef tenderloin with foie gras and tasted as good as it looks. The beef was tender and juicy. As I paired it with silky foie grass and truffle, it was flavourful and subtle taste.

Grilled Swordfish & Spring Onion S$15.00++

It is my first time trying grilled swordfish as I usually had it raw as sashimi. The grilled swordfish has the firm meaty and dense texture. It has the subtle tang and does not have a distinctive taste on its own. Thus, grilling the fish enhance the smokey flavour in it.

King Prawn Kadaif Bites S$15.00++

King prawn wrapped in thin crispy noodles along with the in-house sauce. I enjoyed the sound when the shredded noodles shattered after the first bite. It was a good bite and dip into homemade tomato and red pepper sauce was just perfect.

Scallops & Cauliflower S$22.00++

Pan-fried scallops with cauliflower puree, broccoli, cauliflower crisps and beurre noi-sette. Sweet Hokkaido scallops with evenly spread cauliflower puree was nothing more tasty than this.

Truffle Cream Risotto & Foie Gras S$19.00++

First time trying truffle cream risotto and I can smell the truffle aroma when it was served. The risotto was thick, creamy and the rice grains were chewy.It would be best for sharing.

Tiramisu S$8.00++

All time favourite desserts anytime anywhere.

Lemon Granita & Mango Panna Cotta S$8.00++

After a filling main, this would be the best choice of dessert. It has the light and refreshing palate. The combination of the sweet mango cubes and sourish lemon granita certainly put a beautiful end for the meal.

Peach Melba S$9.00++

If you are a peach lover, give this a try!

My first impression of this restaurant was expensive. But as I run through the menu, average price for mains are not more than S$30.00. Truth enough, never judge a book by its cover. The restaurant also offers Set Lunch (4- course at S$29.00++) and Set Dinner (5-course at S$59.00++) respectively. You don’t usually get such wallet-friendly meal for European cuisine don’t you?
