MUSEO @ Quayside Isle on Sentosa Island

IMG_0594ed

I have visited Arteastiq Boutique Tea House at Mandarin Gallery in Orchard before and was impressed with their concept of offering social painting with a tea lounge. Now they are going up a gear moving into fine dining with the opening of MUSEO (moo-zay-o) which means museum in Italian at the Quayside Isle on Sentosa Island.

Climbing up the stairs leading to the second floor where the restaurant and barroom is located, customers are first welcome by the bar counter where a range of 30 signature cocktails are concocted here. As we are here for the High Tea Buffet, you will notice the bar top doubles up as their dessert section.

The window seats provide diners a magnificent view of the marina docked with beautiful yachts. The peaceful sanctuary teleports one to a relaxing holiday atmosphere.

For those that prefers a more straight up sitting posture for dining, worry not as there are abundance of such seating around the restaurant.

For group gathering there is a private room to cater for up to 20 guests. It is pretty spacious too.

At MUSEO the social painting studio is integrated with the restaurant allowing one to create their own masterpiece while indulging the delish food and artisan beverages.

One of the unique dining concept at MUSEO is Dine in a Cup for a contemporary fusion twist which probably the first in the world. We got to sample some of the MUSEO's Mezzanine range such as the Salmon Curry with Ladyfingers and Barbecued Squid with Chilli and Peppers. There are a total of 12 mezzanines available on their menu. Diners are also given free rein in customising their own mezzanien set by choosing 4 of the 12 for only $39. (Mezzanine is not part of high tea menu).

Do note once again High Tea is only available on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, 130pm to 5pm.
