Cafe Quenino @ Artyzen Hotel Singapore - New Concept: Build Your Table The Way You Like. Any Plates, Any Combination

CafeQueninoMar2026-19

Set within the stylish enclave of Artyzen Singapore, Cafe Quenino introduces a refreshed dining concept that reimagines Singapore's beloved "tze char" culture in a contemporary Orchard setting. Anchored by the philosophy of "tze char comfort for today's table" and a communal format of "plates for the table, shared your way", the experience encourages diners to curate their own feast from a diverse menu of Southeast Asian flavours.

CafeQueninoInterior-1

The ordering format is straightforward and convivial. Guests can choose from 3, 5, or 7 plates, paired with sides depending on the selected tier — much like ordering a spread at a traditional tze char establishment. Dishes span starters, mains, larger plates and desserts, all designed for sharing in the middle of the table.

- 3 Plates + Choice of 2 Sides: $88
- 5 Plates + Choice of 3 Sides: $138
- 7 Plates + Choice of 4 Sides: $188

For our visit, we opted for the 5-plate format, with a balanced spread of 2 appetisers, 2 mains, and 1 dessert.

CafeQueninoMar2026-3
Heirloom Tomato Salad 4.2/5

We started with the Heirloom Tomato Salad, a vibrant medley of coloured tomatoes paired with buffalo mozzarella, basil, shallots and a black vinegar dressing. It was light yet refreshing, whetting the appetite with its bright acidity and clean flavours.

CafeQueninoMar2026-16
King Salmon Sashimi 4.2/5

Another starter, the King Salmon Sashimi, impressed with its generous portion and quality. The salmon was fresh and buttery, elevated by chilli and black bean accents, while a squeeze of calamansi added a zesty lift that brought the dish together beautifully.

CafeQueninoMar2026-25
Pineapple Assam Prawn 4.2/5

Moving on to the mains, the Pineapple Assam Prawn delivered robust flavours. The prawns were complemented by cherry tomatoes and okra, all coated in a tangy, spicy tamarind sauce. The balance of sweet, sour, and heat worked harmoniously, highlighting the prawns' natural sweetness.

CafeQueninoMar2026-27
Ayam Percik 4/5

The Ayam Percik featured half a spring chicken, offering a hearty portion perfect for sharing. The chicken was tender and sat atop a bed of aromatic percik sauce, finished with an onion herb salad that added a fresh contrast.

CafeQueninoMar2026-29
French Fries with Aioli 4.8/5

CafeQueninoMar2026-30
Garlic Roasted Baby Potato Curry Leaves 4.2/5

To complement the mains, we had the Coconut Basmati Rice, which paired especially well with the richly flavoured dishes. The French Fries with Aioli turned out to be a standout — crisp on the outside, fluffy within, and highly addictive. The Garlic Roasted Baby Potato with Curry Leaves offered a more aromatic alternative, with earthy notes enhanced by the fragrance of curry leaves.

CafeQueninoMar2026-44
Coconut Pandan Burnt Cheesecake 3.8/5

The meal ended with the Coconut Pandan Burnt Cheesecake, a localised take on the classic dessert. Infused with pandan and accompanied by coconut whipped cream and grated coconut gula melaka, it delivered familiar flavours. However, the texture leaned denser than expected, lacking the molten centre that would have elevated the indulgence.

Overall, the new concept at Cafe Quenino successfully captures the essence of communal tze char dining while presenting it in a polished, modern format. The flexibility to mix and match dishes across categories makes it an appealing option for groups, offering both variety and a sense of familiarity with a contemporary twist.

Note: This is an invited tasting.

PLU Singapore @ Goodwood Park Hotel - Bangkok’s Bib Gourmand PLU Thai Cuisine Lands in Singapore

PluDiningInterior-3

Quietly taking over the former space of Alma, PLU Singapore arrives in Singapore with little fanfare but plenty of pedigree. Hailing from Bangkok and backed by a Bib Gourmand accolade, PLU marks its first international outpost, setting up home within the charming grounds of Goodwood Park Hotel. Named after the wild betel leaf and Bangkok’s Suan Plu Alley, the restaurant offers a space that blends colonial elegance with modern touches, providing a tranquil dining sanctuary amid Orchard’s bustle.

PluDining10
Burmese Tea Leaves Salad 4.5/5

The Burmese Tea Leaves Salad ($20), or Lahpet Thoke, is a rare find in Singapore and a standout starter. Built around fermented tea leaves, the dish delivers a fascinating interplay of textures and flavours. A medley of crunchy elements, particularly the toasted peanuts, adds depth and contrast, while a punchy dressing of fish sauce, lime juice and peanut oil ties everything together. It is bright, nutty and deeply aromatic, a refreshing yet complex opening to the meal.

PluDining15
Chicken with Galangal Coconut Soup 4.5/5

The Chicken with Galangal Coconut Soup ($28), better known as Tom Kha Gai, showcases a comforting balance of richness and fragrance. The broth, made from chicken stock enriched with coconut milk, is luxuriously silky without being overly heavy. Lemongrass and makrut lime leaves lend a lifted citrusy aroma, while tender chicken pieces and mushrooms soak up the creamy, flavourful soup beautifully.

PluDining18
Chicken Green Curry 4.5/5

A staple done right, the Chicken Green Curry ($28) delivers on all fronts. The curry strikes a harmonious balance of spice, sweetness and savouriness, enriched by the creaminess of coconut milk. The tender chicken pairs perfectly with the thin, fragrant gravy, which begs to be soaked up with steamed rice. It’s a comforting, well-executed classic and an essential order.

PluDining22
Stir-Fried Baegu Leaves with Egg 4.2/5

The Stir-Fried Baegu Leaves with Egg ($22) introduces a lesser-known Southern Thai speciality. The Baegu leaves are surprisingly approachable, with a mild, nutty sweetness and no bitterness. Even after stir-frying, they retain a pleasant, slightly waxy bite. The addition of softly scrambled eggs, forming tender curds that cling to the leaves, adds richness and aroma. It’s a simple yet satisfying dish that offers a welcome respite from the bolder flavours on the table.

PluDining32
Shrimp Pad Thai 4.5/5

The Shrimp Pad Thai ($29) is a quintessential representation of Thai street food done with finesse. The noodles boast a glossy sheen and a beautiful reddish-bronze hue from the tamarind. Each bite delivers the signature Thai balance of sweet, sour and savoury notes, complemented by the fragrance of toasted nuts and a hint of caramelisation. A highlight here is the egg, which retains a slight runniness, adding an extra layer of richness often missing elsewhere.

PluDiningInterior-6

PLU Singapore may have opened quietly, but it certainly makes a strong impression. With its refined yet approachable dishes and a menu that balances familiar favourites with lesser-seen regional specialities, it brings a slice of Bangkok’s culinary charm into the heart of Singapore. The thoughtful execution and well-calibrated flavours make it a worthwhile addition to Orchard’s dining scene.

Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant (萬豪軒) @ Marriott Tang Plaza Singapore - Unveils its “Spring in Bloom Delicacies” Limited-time Menu

WanHaoMar2026-12

Marking the arrival of Spring, Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant unveils its "Spring in Bloom Delicacies", a limited-time menu inspired by seasonal ingredients traditionally enjoyed during this vibrant time of year. Available from 4 March to 30 April 2026, the menu showcases the restaurant's dedication to premium, sustainably sourced produce, thoughtfully crafted into refined Cantonese creations. Diners can look forward to an extensive à la carte selection of handcrafted dim sum, alongside a beautifully curated 5-course set menu.

WanHaoMar2026-1

WanHaoMar2026-2

WanHaoMar2026-7
Trio of Appetisers 4/5

We began our dinner with the Trio of Appetisers, a delightful introduction to the season's flavours presented in elegant bite-sized portions. The Deep-Fried Prawn with Mandarin Orange Sauce stood out with its light, crisp exterior coated in a citrusy glaze that added a refreshing zing. The Roast Kurobuta Pork Char Siew with Osmanthus Honey offered a luscious balance of smoky sweetness, elevated by the floral notes of osmanthus. Completing the trio was the Pan-Fried Japanese Scallop with Spring Bamboo Shoot and Yuzu, where the scallop's natural sweetness was complemented by the gentle crunch of bamboo shoot and a subtle yuzu brightness.

WanHaoMar2026-8
Steamed Marble Goby Fillet 3.8/5

Next, we had the Steamed Marble Goby Fillet with Pea Sprout in Lemongrass Chicken Superior Stock. The marble goby fillet was delicate and tender, boasting a clean, naturally sweet flavour and a silky texture that absorbed the broth's essence well. The superior stock, enriched with chicken and lifted by aromatic lemongrass, lent the dish a creamy depth. While comforting and well-executed, the flavour profile leaned towards being slightly one-dimensional, and a more pronounced piquant contrast could have added greater complexity.

WanHaoMar2026-13
Stewed Iberico Pork 4/5

The Stewed Iberico Pork with Fermented Red Bean Curd Paste and Spring Bamboo Shoot, served in a stone pot, delivered a hearty and satisfying note. The Iberico pork was fork-tender, richly infused with the fermented red bean curd paste, giving it a deep umami richness. This was beautifully balanced by the natural sweetness and crisp texture of the spring bamboo shoots, adding both contrast and dimension to the dish.

WanHaoMar2026-22
Golden Vermicelli with Crab Meat, Spring Bamboo Shoot and Ginger 3.8/5

Following that, the Golden Vermicelli with Crab Meat, Spring Bamboo Shoot and Ginger offered an interplay of textures. The vermicelli, deep-fried to a golden crisp, provided a light crunch that paired well with the plump, sweet crab meat and crunchy bamboo shoots. While enjoyable, the accompanying sauce could have been brighter and more vibrant to better tie the elements together and elevate the overall dish.

WanHaoMar2026-25
Chilled White Chrysanthemum Jelly with Honey Sorbet 3/5

To conclude, the Chilled White Chrysanthemum Jelly with Honey Sorbet provided a refreshing and soothing finish. The chrysanthemum jelly was light and subtly floral, complemented by the gentle sweetness of the honey sorbet — a clean and palate-cleansing end to the meal.

Overall, the Spring in Bloom Delicacies menu at Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant captures the essence of the season through refined Cantonese craftsmanship, highlighting quality ingredients with elegant restraint. While some dishes could benefit from bolder contrasts, the menu remains a thoughtful and polished celebration of springtime flavours.

Note: This is an invited tasting.

The Peranakan Club @ Orchard Towers - Heritage Peranakan Food and Cultural Experience Under One Roof

ThePeranakanClub49

Tucked within a sprawling 5,000 sq ft space, The Peranakan Club offers what could well be Singapore’s most immersive Peranakan experience to date. More than just a dining destination, it is a “living museum” where heritage, culture, and cuisine intertwine seamlessly. From the moment you step inside, you are transported into the rich world of Peranakan traditions — a thoughtfully curated journey that invites diners to taste, see, and experience its legacy all under one roof.

ThePeranakanClubOrchardTower-2

ThePeranakanClubOrchardTower-8

The space is conceptually divided into several unique experiences. The Kebaya Bar serves up Peranakan-inspired cocktails in collaboration with Brass Lion Distillery, while the Keronsong Tea Room offers an elegant setting for tea, champagne, and caviar. For a more comforting experience, The Little Nyonya presents familiar, family-style classics, while Grand Peranakan caters to private tok panjang feasts reminiscent of lavish heritage banquets. Beyond dining, The Peranakan Gallery showcases heirloom costumes and artefacts, and the Baba Nyonya Atelier features beautifully crafted kebayas and lifestyle pieces, completing the cultural immersion.

ThePeranakanClub1

ThePeranakanClub3
Peranakan Prosperity Lo Hei 4/5

Interestingly, the restaurant offers its own version of yusheng year-round. The Peranakan Prosperity Lo Hei retains the familiar components but stands out with the addition of ulam, lending a refreshing herbal lift and a distinct Peranakan identity.

ThePeranakanClub8
Bakwan Kepiting 4/5

The Bakwan Kepiting is a comforting, soulful soup that warms both the palate and the stomach. Featuring delicate hand-rolled meatballs made from a blend of crab meat and minced pork, the dish is served in a clear, naturally sweet broth of bamboo shoots. The meatballs are tender yet firm, packed with flavour, while the bamboo shoots add a pleasant crunch and sweetness. A dollop of sambal belachan enhances the overall profile with a punchy, umami kick.

ThePeranakanClub12
Nasi Ulam with Raja Ulam 4.2/5

A labour-intensive dish, the Nasi Ulam with Raja Ulam here reflects the finesse of Peranakan cooking. Finely julienned herbs and aromatics are meticulously prepared to blend harmoniously with the rice. Often regarded as the “queen” of Peranakan rice dishes, this version stands out for its inclusion of ulam raja, which adds a peppery note with hints of green mango. The result is a complex, aromatic, and refreshing rice salad.

ThePeranakanClub19
Prawn Ngoh Hiang 4.5/5

The Prawn Ngoh Hiang impresses with its chunky, hand-minced filling of pork and prawns, wrapped in a thin beancurd skin and fried to a crisp. The addition of water chestnuts provides a delightful crunch and subtle sweetness, while the balance of fat in the pork ensures a juicy bite.

ThePeranakanClub25
Salmon Fish Wing with Sambal Belimbing 3/5

An interactive dish, the Salmon Fish Wing is served deep-fried alongside Sambal Belimbing, with a brush provided for diners to apply the sambal themselves. The sambal delivers a tangy, sourish heat that is undeniably appetising. However, while both components are enjoyable individually, they do not quite come together as a cohesive dish.

ThePeranakanClub27
Babi Assam 4.2/5

The Babi Assam is a comforting Peranakan stew that delivers both richness and balance. Chunky cuts of pork belly are simmered for a long time, allowing the fat to render beautifully and the meat to become melt-in-the-mouth tender. The tamarind-based gravy is the star here, offering a tangy, slightly spicy profile with a deep, fruity acidity that cuts through the richness of the pork, resulting in a dish that is both hearty and appetising.

ThePeranakanClub31
Ayam Buah Keluak 4.5/5

A quintessential Peranakan classic, the Ayam Buah Keluak showcases deep, earthy flavours from the prized buah keluak nut. The gravy is rich and complex, with notes reminiscent of dark chocolate, while the chicken is stewed until tender and fully infused with the nut’s distinct umami depth.

ThePeranakanClub36
Nangka Rendang 3.8/5

The Nangka Rendang offers a plant-based alternative using young jackfruit as a meat substitute. Its fibrous texture mimics that of slow-cooked meat, and it absorbs the spices well. While the execution is commendable, it may not fully satisfy those who prefer the richness of traditional rendang with meat, though it remains a solid option for vegetarians.

ThePeranakanClub45
Rempah Nenas Udang 4.5/5

Bright and vibrant, the Rempah Nenas Udang combines prawns and pineapple in a rich, tangy coconut gravy. The sweetness of the pineapple balances the spices beautifully, creating a dish that is both refreshing and indulgent.

ThePeranakanClub53
Ikan Goreng Chuan Chuan 4.2/5

At first glance, the Ikan Goreng Chuan Chuan appears to be a simple deep-fried seabass. However, the filleted fish is thoughtfully paired with blue pea-infused beehoon beneath, which soaks up the tangy sauce. The result is a more layered and satisfying dish than expected.

ThePeranakanClub57
Chendol Melaka 4/5

Ending the meal on a sweet note, the Chendol Melaka impresses with its robust gula melaka, offering a deep caramelised sweetness. However, being served in a glass makes it slightly less enjoyable, as the components remain layered and harder to mix compared to the preferred bowl presentation.

ThePeranakanClub66
Apom Bok Kuah Pisang 4/5

A rare Peranakan dessert, the Apom Bok Kuah Pisang features soft, fermented rice pancakes paired with a warm banana coconut sauce. The pancakes are slightly tangy with a springy texture, while the sauce is creamy, sweet, and lightly savoury — a comforting and nostalgic finale.

ThePeranakanClubOrchardTower-4

The Peranakan Club is more than just a restaurant — it is a holistic cultural experience that celebrates Peranakan heritage engagingly and thoughtfully. With its diverse concepts and well-executed dishes, it offers diners not only a satisfying meal but also a deeper appreciation of the traditions and stories behind the cuisine.

Note: This is an invited tasting.

Tampopo @ Takashimaya - Showcases Niigata’s Premium Produce in Limited-Time Seasonal Menu

TampopoTakashimaya1

A household name in Singapore’s Japanese dining scene, Tampopo has long been instrumental in making authentic Japanese cuisine accessible, consistent, and affordable. Founded by Takagi Takaaki, the brand continues to honour its philosophy of working closely with Japanese producers. This season, Tampopo spotlights the bounty of Niigata Prefecture with a limited-time menu that highlights premium ingredients flown in from the region.

A key highlight is the introduction of Niigata-grown “Shinnosuke” rice, a relatively new varietal that inherits the prized genetics of Koshihikari while offering its own distinct character. With a higher amylose content, the rice delivers a gentle sweetness, fuller flavour, and a firm, springy bite. Cultivated using pristine snowmelt water and benefiting from Niigata’s dramatic temperature shifts, each grain is glossy, aromatic, and refined.

TampopoTakashimaya10
Niigata Umaimon Gozen 4/5

The Niigata Umaimon Gozen ($35.80) is the best way to experience “Shinnosuke” rice in its purest form. This well-balanced set comes complete with sashimi, grilled fish, vegetables, and soup, allowing the rice to shine as the centrepiece. Its texture pairs beautifully with the accompanying dishes, elevating the overall dining experience.

TampopoTakashimaya4
Tampopo’s Chirashi Sushi 3.8/5

TampopoTakashimaya14
Amaebi Shinjyo with Lotus 3.8/5

The menu also features the prized Oguchi Lotus root from Nagaoka City, known for its exceptional crunch and tenderness. Harvested using the meticulous mizuhori method, the lotus root retains its clean, crisp texture without excess fibrousness.

This premium ingredient appears in Tampopo’s Chirashi Sushi ($29.80), adding a refreshing bite, and in the Amaebi Shinjyo with Lotus ($12.80), where it is stuffed with sweet shrimp paste and deep-fried into a delicate tempura. The contrast between the crunchy lotus root and the creamy amaebi filling creates an enjoyable textural interplay.

TampopoTakashimaya3
Niigata Soul Food “Noppe” 3.5/5

A comforting traditional dish, “Noppe” is a celebratory stew deeply rooted in Niigata’s culinary heritage. The hearty bowl features a medley of ingredients, including lotus root, mushrooms, salmon, chicken, satoimo, and kamaboko, simmered in a light yet umami-rich dashi broth enhanced with dried scallops and mushrooms. It is wholesome, nourishing, and quietly satisfying.

TampopoTakashimaya16
Tampopo’s Hegi Soba with Prawn Tempura (tasting portion) 4.2/5

A rare find in Singapore, Hegi Soba is a regional speciality from Niigata’s Uonuma region. Made using funori seaweed as a binder, the noodles boast a firmer, more elastic texture with a subtle smoothness. At Tampopo, the Hegi Soba with Prawn Tempura ($19.80) features lightly battered prawns fried to a crisp golden finish. The tempura adds a satisfying crunch that contrasts beautifully with the smooth, springy noodles. Dipped into the accompanying sauce, each bite balances delicate soba flavours with the savoury richness of the tempura.

TampopoTakashimaya2
Tagliatelle with Amaebi

A standout collaboration dish with THE NIIGATA Bit GINZA, the Handmade Rice-Flour Tagliatelle with Amaebi ($27.80) bridges Japanese ingredients with Italian technique. The sauce is laboriously prepared using 20kg of amaebi shells and flesh, simmered for hours to extract maximum flavour, then flambéed with brandy. Sourced from Sado Island, the amaebi is prized for its natural sweetness and creamy texture, often dubbed the “candy of the sea.” The resulting dish is deeply umami-rich, with a robust crustacean intensity that will resonate strongly with local palates.

TampopoTakashimaya18
Niigata Matcha Parfait 4.5/5

End the meal on a sweet note with the Niigata Matcha Parfait ($11.80), made using Murakami matcha from Fujimien. The matcha is notably smooth with minimal bitterness, offering a refined finish. Alternatively, the Niigata Strawberry Parfait features the region’s prized Echigo-hime strawberries, known for their sweetness and fragrance.

Tampopo’s Niigata showcase is more than just a seasonal menu. It is a thoughtful tribute to the region’s rich agricultural and culinary heritage. By bringing together premium ingredients, traditional techniques, and creative collaborations, the experience offers diners a rare glimpse into the essence of Niigata, right here in Singapore.

IMG_2212

IMG_2217
Convivio Weekend Brunch 4.5/5

“Convivio” means “feast” in Italian and refers to a lively, communal dining experience. In this unique brunch concept, diners can choose one of six mains, complemented by an extensive spread featuring a fresh seafood bar, a cheese trolley, and decadent desserts. The brunch is priced at $78 per adult and $39 per child (ages 6 to 12), with a $48 top-up for free-flowing prosecco, Aperol Spritz, and red and white wine.

Composed Salads

The Composed Salads selection rotates weekly. During our visit, the standouts were the Duy Pu Lentil (with sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, olives and lemon dressing) and the Octopus salad (with fingerling potatoes, capers and citrus). Both were lightly seasoned and refreshing.

IMG_2219
Cheese Trolley

IMG_2257
Fresh Cheese

Cheese lovers will appreciate the Cheese Trolley, which showcases impressive house-marinated cheeses paired with condiments, alongside a Fresh Cheese selection featuring Buffalo Mozzarella, Giuncata with Citrus Zest, Pesto-infused Burrata and our favourite, the Truffle-infused Ricotta.

IMG_2231
Lasagne

Do not miss the Lasagne station, offering three variations: Salmon, Bolognese and Mushroom. Each was generously layered, cheesy and moist, making them all equally satisfying.

For mains, each diner can choose one of six options, including Braised Wagyu Beef Cheek, Burrata Ravioli, Grilled Swordfish, Slow-Cooked Baby Chicken, Baby Octopus Rigatoni and Pinsa Romana.

IMG_2357

IMG_2366
Burrata Ravioli

One of One-Ninety’s signatures, the Burrata Ravioli is topped with Parmigiano Reggiano foam and black truffle. This was excellent, with each ravioli perfectly cooked and filled.

IMG_2363
Grilled Swordfish

The quality of the fish shone through in the Grilled Swordfish. It was firm and meaty yet remained succulent, with a subtle natural sweetness. The pairing of grilled green asparagus and balsamic-marinated tomato sauce added brightness to the dish.

IMG_2325

IMG_2330
Dessert Table

We were spoiled for choice at the Dessert Table, which featured indulgent favourites such as Tiramisu Cake, Vanilla Panna Cotta, Cannoli, Bronte Pistachio Tart and assorted chocolate bon bons. The classic Tiramisu Cake and Bronte Pistachio Tart stood out as our favourites.
