IMG_3126ed

For the month of August to September 2013, 10 at Claymore at Pan Pacific Orchard will be bringing back timeless classic dishes featuring preparation methods of the 60's and 70's. Themed Timeless Plates of Pleasure, let us embark a food trail down memory lane when flavours were simple yet hearty. At 10 at Claymore, one will be spoiled for choices as you get to order from the ala carte buffet menu as well as extensive selections of international cuisines of seafood, cooked food and desserts spread around the spacious restaurant.

Canadian Handpicked Scallop 2.8/5

Ordering from the ala carte buffet menu, we started with the Canadian Handpicked Scallop. It is prepared like a yam basket with the scallop inside topped with Imperial XO sauce. Interesting concept but individual flavours felt disjoint.

Pacific Ocean Depth Sea Perch 3.5/5

The Pacific Ocean Depth Sea Perch fared much better with the Chong Qing spiced bean gravy enhancing the flavours of the fresh and moist fish.

Australian Master Kobe Wagyu Beef 'Outside Flat' 4.2/5

Cooked beautifully with mushroom creme, the Australian Master Kobe Wagyu Beef 'Outside Flat' was flavourful and succulent.

New Zealand Free Range Lamb Shank 4/5

The melted in the mouth New Zealand Free Range Lamb Shank with Shiraz Reduction is worth putting on a few pounds for it.

Indo-China Farmed Duck Breast 4/5

While others find the Indo-China Farmed Duck Breast gamey, I thought the pinkish sliced duck breast was excellently executed. The citrus honey glaze did bring a nice contrast of the flavours but I preferred a little more reduction of it for the meat to shine.

Penang Spicy Prawn Noodle in Soup 3.5/5

Known for its Penang fare, the Penang Spicy Prawn Noodle in a spicy crustacean broth was indeed hearty and comforting.

The ala carte buffet menu items are served in petite portions so diners can have a try of everything. It is unlimited so if you like a particular dish, just order again. For those that has a huge appetite, a wide spread of succulent seafood and bistro fare invites you at the buffet line.

For cheese lovers, its worth checking out the cheese section. 10 at Claymore has quite an interesting cheese selection such as Stout Porter, Stripey Jack, Lime & Chilli and Cranberry.

Penang Char Kway Teow 4.5/5

Even with a bloated stomach, I still tried to save some space for the award winning Penang Char Kway Teow. I could smell the fragrant noodle from a distance and each mouthful was filled with delightful wok hei flavour.
