Restaurant Jag: Autumn Menu and Surviving Covid
The Covid 19 pandemic has seen quite a few casualties especially in the fine dining category. Thankfully, Restaurant Jag had managed to weather the storm. During the initial lockdown, the restaurant managed to stay afloat through home delivery of classic French home cooked meals like coq au vin and boeuf bourguignon. In phase 2, the seating capacity of the already small restaurant had to be reduced further.
Restaurant JAG: Exploring the Exotic and Eclectic
When we first dined at Restaurant JAG last year, I predicted that Chef Jeremy Gillion’s passion for exotic European herbs and vegetables would surely win him a Michelin Star and indeed, that premonition came to pass later that year! The good news is that even after winning a Michelin Star, prices of their degustation menu […]
PUTIEN: Live Eel Season!
Sep 2020 Update We were back at PUTIEN, this time at their new outlet at Great World to check out their live eels again. In addition to eels cooked on hot plate and in natural spring water, this year they are baking them in a claypot with a moreish garlic and Puning bean sauce! In […]
Restaurant JAG: Flavours of Savoie
Congrats to Jag for winning One Michelin Star 2019 How do you make your own fine dining restaurant stand out from the rest who are also serving the usual suspects of wagyu, caviar, lobster, foie gras and oysters? That must be the holy grail of every fine dining chef. Indeed, the quest for the next […]
Bacchanalia by Chef Vianney Massot: Michelin Makeover
Fans of Joel Robuchon will be quite happy to know that the Executive chef at the now defunct L’atelier, Chef Vianney Massot, is now helming Bacchanalia. L’atelier had been my go to place for French cuisine even before it earned its two Michelin stars and I felt rather dissappointed when they decided to close last […]
Alma by Juan Amador Review – Modern European with Asian influence Michelin Star Restaurant
Nestled in Singapore's Goodwood Park Hotel on Scotts Road is Alma by Juan Amador, who managed to hold down their One-Michelin star status for three consecutive years since its Michelin debut in Singapore in 2016. No doubt, we had high expectations when we were invited to experience their new 3rd anniversary dinner menu. We came away with mixed feelings. The meal went off on a very promising start but but failed to hit the crescendo at the end.
Waku Ghin Singapore – The Executive Lunch
I have been to Waku Ghin several times in the past and the experience has always been quite extraordinary. This should be expected of any two Michelin star restaurant, especially when you have to fork out almost $1k for a dinner for two. This is the kind of restaurant that one goes to to celebrate special life events or when you really have impress a significant other.
Restaurant Labyrinth: Michelin Star Singapore Cuisine
Modern Singaporean cuisine is no longer considered "new". It really started more than a decade ago with Chef Willin Low's Wild Rocket. Nowadays, a "laksa" this and a "chilli crab" that can be found everywhere, even at fast food chains, which begs the question:
CUT by Wolfgang Puck: Highland Beef — Finally!
About four years ago, I picked up a book from the library that was simply titled "Steak". There are very few single words that have the power to command my immediate attention and this is one of them. The other is "Monnnnng!" which is what my Teochew name sounds like when it is uttered by my wife in an ascending tone. It usually signals an ominous change in the weather pattern which requires a drastic course correction.
Joël Robuchon: Three Michelin Star Dining Experience
How does one write about a Three Michelin Star restaurant whose Chef has been given the title “Chef of the Century” and who currently has a total of twenty eight Michelin Stars? If I criticised it, I would surely sound patronising. If I said the experience is “phenomenal”, I might be misconstrued as being shallow.
Candlenut: First Michelin Star Peranakan Food!
have been wanting to visit Candlenut for the longest time, even before they won a Michelin Star in the inaugural Michelin Guide for Singapore. Word had it that Chef Malcolm was doing great things with Peranakan cuisine, using his knowledge of western fine dining to bring Peranakan cuisine into the 21st century while still preserving its essential character.
Chef Kang’s Kitchen: The Return of the Canton Wokman!
Congrats to Chef Kang for winning One Michelin Star for 2017! Fans of Chef Kang of the defunct Canton Wok will be ecstatic to know that our favourite Cantonese Chef is back and this time he means business! After a short hiatus, Chef Kang has opened a little boutique restaurant which seats only 40 pax and […]
