Meats & Steaks🥩

This 200g AUS Wagyu ribeye was simply magnificent. The marbling of the fat felt greater than the indicated score of 4-5, with every bite so melt-in-your mouth tender and juicy. The steak was glistening so much I thought I was in heaven. Impeccable flavour and a perfectly executed medium rare steak, I was honestly so surprised at the quality I was having at Black Pearl. Not pictured is also the white wine mussels that were so delightful! Garlicky broth that paired wonderfully with the table bread that was served. Can’t wait to be back again.

A small restaurant located along the busy street opposite i12 Katong, Stirling Steaks served up one mean steak. Went for the tenderloin which was executed well, a nice sear that was delicately marinated, and unsurprisingly, very tender. The side of truffle fries were a tad too oily, but still delicious. Would definitely come back here with the Burpple 1-for-1 deal - so worth it!

Can understand why people say that the short ribs are on the gamier side, but I personally thought it was manageable, perhaps even worth it because the meat was really fall of the bone kind of tender! And helping to balance that gaminess was the interesting choice of pomegranate and toasted almonds which gave both a crunchiness and sweetness to the lamb. I did think that by the end, the lamb was too greasy which made it feel much heavier on the palate.

Grilled Spanish iberico pork paprika sausages. Decently executed with a nice char from the grill. But I thought it was just decent and not really worth the price - other than the fact that you’re at Sentosa.

Disappointing plate of fish and chips that was so lacklustre, considering how they placed it in their menu as their signature items. Granted that the portion was huge, the batter on the fish was thick, bland, and soggy.

Pork sausage, with tomato ketchup and curry powder. Not the best especially when the tomato catsup and curry powder was a bit overwhelming and in your face, and the texture of the sausage was a bit too soggy.

A South American inspired wood-fired lamb dish. The lamb was tender and made less gamy with the sauce, which was full of thyme and rosemary flavours. I however liked it paired with the sauce, which seemed like a creamy minty sauce - not sure if it’s a rendition of chimichurri + mint! That being said, the portion of this was really small, and a bigger plate (300g) would’ve cost $67. Not the most wallet friendly dishes here, but I guess you’re paying for vibes, views, and service.

SG Restaurant Week Spring 2023 by Dining City Singapore is running its final week this week and I’m glad to have gone to Boeuf to try its Dinner Set, just at $48++ per pax!

You get a three course set meal, starting with a Burratina di Puglia - perfectly portioned so that you don’t have to share. Pictured is the main, Boeuf’s Siganture Aged Ribeye Steak Frites, was well grilled with its medium-rare tender with a slight chew. There was a good amount of flavour and juiciness in the steak, with layers of fat in between. The meal was finished off with a creme brûlée, a simple creamy and sweet ending that wrapped everything up nicely.

Medium rare rump cap felt a bit too tough to my liking, and the flavours of the meat didn’t come through enough. It might’ve been rubbed with the basic pepper and salt, but the overall dish felt bland. The vegetables on the side were well-executed though.

Decent steak for the price, but nothing mind blowing. It had a nice char and was just mildly seasoned with salt, but it wasn’t the most tender or juicy, particularly because of its feather blade cut. To complement your steak with sauces, you’d have to pay $2 each for the Sichuan peppercorn and wasabi cream sauces, and $3 for the truffle mushroom sauce. Took 1 each as I wanted try, and I enjoyed the truffle mushroom sauce the most. It would’ve been nice if the restaurant could have provided free sauces such as mustard, but they unfortunately did not provide such a service. While the gastronomic experience was pretty average, the cosy ambience makes this place a good choice for date nights especially with their affordable pricing of their steak.

Iberico Jowl was tender and flavourful, with an amazing char on the surface. Every slice was melt-in-your-mouth juiciness. A good proportion of meat and fat at the sides. I’d highly recommend this!!

Hunger steak was on the tougher side, requested for medium rare but it was still too raw. Not the most well-seasoned, with bouts of overwhelming rawness in some bites.
