Homemade Milk Bun (SGD 8)
4 / 5
- Milk bun was very soft in texture and fragrant
- House special butter: Unique umami combination of Cai Po (preserved radish) and Ga Na Cai (Teochew olive vegetable)
Duck Menchikatsu (SGD 17)
2 / 5
- A twist on the popular Japanese street snack where Singaporean braised duck is used as the filling
- While the meat was moist, I found the katsu to have a very oily mouthfeel which is compounded further when adding the provided spring onion aoili dip
Seafood Tsukune (SGD 12)
3.5 / 5
- Tsukune made out of a mix of fish and prawns to give a firm and bouncy chew
- Pairs well with the lime aoili
Brussel Sprouts (SGD 14)
3.5 / 5
- Roasted brussel sprouts with a whipped brown butter and tomato vinaigrette
Beef Short Ribs (SGD 68)
5 / 5
- 200-days grain fed Australian Black Angus beef with a gunpowder spice mix and a Middle Eastern Tzatziki sauce
- The beef was very flavourful and rich with a melt in your mouth feel
- The spice mix and the Tzatziki were nice accompaniments but not necessary with how good the beef was
Bahamas Villa Kefira (SGD 8.5)
3.5 / 5
- Refreshing drink containing chamomile, lime, mint and vanilla
