Welcome to Boat Quay.

Super succulent and moist, the Roast Irish Duck ($22/ Quarter) was another hit. A tad fatty and heavy but the glistening skin had that lovely crackling crispiness. One to share among 3 to 4 people, the protein was really well-executed. Would go great with a steaming bowl of rice.

In the mood for fancy hor fun, The Dragon Chamber’s Wagyu Truffle Beef Hor Fun ($32) ticked all the right boxes for me. Doused in a copious amount of rich truffle gravy; the slurpy noodles were so moreish. The wok fried flat noodles, crispy deep-fried hor fun strips, silky poached egg and slices of premium US Wagyu short rib came together nicely offering a myriad of fun textures. Though the sauce could definitely be more earthy and “truffle-y”, the hot savoury mix was flavourful without being cloying. The beef was tender too and seasoned well.

👍👍

Thick ramen noodles generously crowned with spring onions, onsen egg, seaweed, and spicy minced meats. It's like Dan Dan noodles but with a Japanese twist. The noodles are incredibly slurpy and bursting with flavour. For an extra kick, add some fried garlic. Once you've savoured all the noodles, don't hesitate to request a small saucer plate of rice to mix with any leftover sauce. And here's a bonus – if you're feeling particularly hungry, you're in for a treat as they offer a free upsize on the noodles. Plus, there's a complimentary jug of cold tea on the table, perfect for quenching your thirst.

Pro tip: Arrive early to avoid the queue.

Seasonal flavour: very very refreshing!!! With cubes of peaches (not canned ones) as well:))

In my opinion, the best dish in Un Yang Kor Dai is their Isaan Grilled Pork Neck Fried Rice. The rice itself is filled with different levels of flavours, all exploding and clamouring to be recognised with each mouthful.

For this dish alone, I can believe they deserve their Michelin award.

wild seabass, smoked eggplant cream, powdered smoked leeks, steamed green vegetables, freekeh, labneh, roasted savoy cabbage, preserved lemon, watercress vinaigrette & olive oil

(Part of the Lunch Menu $69)

fire-roasted greek eggplants, israeli tahini, silan, pistachios, thyme, rose petals, feta & olive oil

All exceptional value, even though sets were not available at night. Accommodating efficient lovely little place. All could be spicier

A lot of ingredients in the prawn tom yum, including tofu skin, egg, etc. Swopped to glass noodles & couldn’t even finish. Manageable heat, could be spicier. Do note their extra value sets are not available for dinner, but good value anyway.

Dessert: I topped up for Japanese Melon which was a sorbet ice blend made with lemoncello over tofu ice cream and burrata creme 💗 This was 💯👍 sweet refreshing with layering texture ✨awesome.
EVERYTHING ELSE:
Pasta dish is too small a portion for my liking 🥲 small till i can’t really taste the flavor of the dish…
…
Main course was the Kimedai - a common fish choice after a few restaurant visit ‘oops’ - simple sauce pairing, skin was crisp well done but no wow factor.
…
Petite Four: another mala but in the form of bourbon artisan chocolate, fancy pineapple tart and red bean mooncake for the festive season. hm it’s ok but not my favorite.
…
Overrall, an option for a more price-friendly fine-dining experience with really nice views of the singapore river but will hope to see more refinement and volume to the menu for a return visit 😊

Foie Gras was the best fine-dining creation in the menu for me - worthy of the price point✨ beautifully done with the pudding-like foie gras paste paired with truffle, sweet grapes and elderflower touch ✨ with bread stick on the side to balance out the intensity.
