It’s essentially kefalotiri cheese topped with fig sauce. Kefalotiri cheese is usually hard, but after sizzling in the skillet, it turns into a soft camembert-like consistency, with crispy “skin”. Fig jam adds the much-needed sweetness to cut through the saltiness of the cheese. Highly recommend to try this with some pita bread and grilled meat.

Essentially kolo mee with elevated ingredients- Japanese anchovies, eggless kolo noodle, roast pork, mushroom, poached egg. Chilli could have been spicier, but was sufficiently fragrant. The noodle was springy and roast pork flavourful. Nothing particularly stood out though and the price tag certainly doesn't help.

Another combo that can hardly go wrong especially when freshness is highly guaranteed. Smokey, fragrant and refreshing. Prefer this over the crab toast simply because I prefer bolder flavour and contrasting texture.

Love the smokey flavour, but not exactly a fan of the mushy texture of the crab (this is just my personal preference!). Using the jarrah, lychee, and mangrove woods for the fire really changes the game here.

Pricey as it is, the pork belly was the highlight of our meal here. It comes with melt-in-your-mouth layers of fats while the meat was soft and tender. I could taste the prominent aburi flavour as well as the savoury sweet marination coating the meat. Sinful yet heavenly.

Fish was oily and moist with a subtle hint of smokiness -- went well with the simple vegetables on the plate. Flavour wise was rather light on the palate, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Glazed with honey, the cod fish flesh was sooo soft, smooth, and sweet. The surprise came from the green puree that was made from ginger, soy sauce, and spring onion. It was a creative twist from the typical Chinese steam fish with the exact same ingredients. Easily my favourite dish that night!

The gorgeous platter offered three different texture of popular seafood items: prawn, scallop and abalone. The golden deep-fried prawn paste roll looked promising, but unfortunately was lacking the bold prawn taste. Likewise, the scallop was overwhelmed by the cheese and its texture was too mushy. My favourite was the abalone on watermelon with a dollop of wasabi. A refreshing pair of sweet watermelon, tender savoury abalone and numbing wasabi was a good way to start the courses here!

3600 strands of silky tofu imitating the delicate chrysantemum flower put all of us in awe upon serving. The chicken broth itself was potent, thanks to the 2 types of chicken boiled for 8 hours. Besides the beautiful tofu, you will be greeted by the fish-looking vegetable with the peppercorn as the eyes and carrots as the fins. What a cutiepie!

Clash of the Potatoes, Mayo and Scallion served as a great starter and was proven addictive. It was a combination of smoky and sweet in every bite! I couldn't stop munching this even after the mains were served.

Meatsmith's Cauliflower & Bleu D'Auvergne came with loads of cheese, evenly coating every single cauliflower floret. It was such a beautiful mess, topped with toasted almond. I wish I could munch on this addictive goodness every day while binge-watching my netflix documentaries.

And what's more is the lovely strozzapreti with 48-hour Barolo braised oxtail topped with parmesan wafers and wild thyme. I got to taste the super tender oxtail which was perfectly marinated and the strozzapreti that was cooked slightly softer than al dente. This would be a great way to pamper yourself on a Sunday.
