Reason for not having and photos of the mains is because dinner lighting is horrendous. The fiancé only helped to lit up the dessert plates with the front light of his phone for the dessert photos 👆🏻

Spiced lapis, passionfruit brûlée. This really reminded me of Christmas. The spices in the lapis was a bit of ginger, cinnamon and cloves. The lapis was done very well! Thin dense layers of cakes, where you can almost distinct the layers. The passion fruit brûlée was tangy enough to balance the sweetness of the lapis. Plus the meringue bits that were added on top really added crunchy fun to the textures. It was such a delight to eat everything as a whole. There was even blobs of ganache for a switch up of flavours 🤤 definitely the star tonight.

Another dish we tried was the Sumatran Barramundi filet. The skin was perfectly crisp, and it sat on a bed of squid, mushrooms and gnocchi with a turmeric coconut sauce. This was the most balanced main dish out of all that we had today. Though there could be more sauce for the barramundi since barramundi doesn't have much flavour on its own but because the bed of stuff absorbed all the sauce, there wasn't much left for the fish.

Though one dish I would recc not to order is the achar! I'm quite used to the peranakan achar with pickled vege, peanuts and belachan. However the achar came in 3 small plates. 1) Ang moh pickles with a slightly spicy sauce. 2) mixed vege like cucumbers, carrots, capsicum that were half pickled in a sauce not sweet nor salty. 3) some sort of pickled fern that the fiance immediately gave a face to. So unless you are in for a different experience, go ahead and order haha.

Another must order is definitely the cocktails! Cheap, tasty and easy to drink 👍🏻👍🏻
