We were here for food-tasting, nephew’s wedding in a month’s time! It was a Thursday evening 7pm and the place was full-ed indoor.
Conspicuous among the neighbouring ACM the restaurant offers both dining options, indoor or alfresco by the waterfront as the Singapore River just...flowing alongside!
Inside it was contemporary décor with full-glass on one side (nearer the promenade) and a well invested marble bar counter on the other. The smart casual Chinese restaurant’s unique setting and probably seats 10+ tables .
The 10 of us were seated in a longish table, and there was the 10 course meal. On the menu, authentic Cantonese dishes elevated with superior ingredients and comes with impressive contemporary presentation.
There were Starter platters, Braised Birds’nest, XO Sauce mushroom, Pawns 2-way (slated-egg & Wasabi), Crispy roast duck, Triple Roast Platter, Sticky Date & Longan Pudding. And there’s 8 Treasure-rice for the carbo-lover and Dessert was “Never too Matchy” too.
It was higher-end food and not question about the food taste. Especially love the prawn (I’m a fan of prawn) and char-siew with its delectable crisp skin. The single serving dishes made one feels lesser “sinful” of high protein/fat.
Overall the ambience won us over. Lively dining experience and service just about right (for the restaurant reputation). But the pricing is pricey.More
