Wild Supper Club Private Dining, Focusing on Pescatarian and Vegetarian Menu

WildSupperClub17

Nestled in the Newton area, Wild Supper Club is a home private dining helmed by Chef Kyle Henderson, a Singapore-born chef with over two decades of experience, having honed his craft at Lolla and Esquina. The restaurant’s philosophy is refreshingly unpretentious — a celebration of fresh seafood, vibrant vegetarian plates, and the occasional market treasure — resulting in a menu that is ever-changing and full of surprises.

Aged Hamachi & Apple Tart 4/5

We kick-started our pescatarian dinner with the Aged Hamachi & Apple Tart. The aged hamachi is delicately paired with apple, roasted tomato, and Ipoh pomelo, dressed in a light vinaigrette and topped with fresh chives. Served in a crispy tart shell, each bite bursts with flavour, balancing the clean-tasting fish with bright acidity and crunch.

WildSupperClub2
Artichoke & Spinach Dip, Baked Pita Chips 4.2/5

Next came the Artichoke & Spinach Dip, accompanied by baked pita chips. Creamy, luscious, and downright addictive, the dip was a crowd favourite. It is rich in flavour yet not overly heavy, and the warm pita chips make the perfect vessel for scooping up every bit of that goodness.

WildSupperClub5
Pickled Mushroom Croquettes, Basil & Parsley Coulis 3.8/5

The Pickled Mushroom Croquettes were deep-fried to a perfect golden brown. It is crispy on the outside, packed with umami on the inside, and beautifully complemented by a fragrant basil and parsley coulis. A simple but expertly executed dish that hits all the right notes.

WildSupperClub7
Baked Pear Empanadas, Parsnip Foam, Rosemary Oil 4.5/5

A surprise standout of the evening was the Baked Pear Empanadas served with parsnip foam and rosemary oil. The sweetness of the pear, encased in a buttery, flaky pastry, was unexpectedly delightful. While empanadas are often savoury, this sweet interpretation worked beautifully and charmed everyone at the table.

WildSupperClub9
Hokkaido Scallop & Ikura Ceviche, Squid Ink Creme Brulee 4/5

The Hokkaido Scallop & Ikura Ceviche atop Squid Ink Crème Brûlée is an inventive creation that impressed both visually and texturally. The contrast between the fresh, briny ceviche and the smooth, slightly savoury crème brûlée made for a playful and memorable dish.

WildSupperClub15
Halibut, Green Nam Jim, Coconut, Saffron Pilaf, Fennel, Herbs 4.2/5

For our main, we had the Halibut, pan-seared to perfection with a lightly crisped exterior and tender, moist flesh. It was served atop a fragrant Saffron Pilaf, complemented by Green Nam Jim, Coconut Cream, Fennel, and Herbs. It is a wholesome, well-balanced dish that seamlessly combines Southeast Asian and Mediterranean influences.

WildSupperClub11
Broccolini, Shaved Grey Mullet Roe, Persian Feta Cheese, Chilli Jam 3.5/5

WildSupperClub13
Heirloom Carrots, Smoked Eggplant Dhal, Coriander Chutney 4/5

To accompany the main, we had two vegetable sides: Broccolini dressed with shaved grey mullet roe, Persian feta cheese, and chilli jam. It is a perfect blend of saltiness and heat. The Heirloom Carrots served atop smoked eggplant dhal with coriander chutney, showcasing layers of earthy and smoky flavours.

WildSupperClub20
Yoghurt Cheesecake, Lemon & Thyme Curd, Black Sesame Cone 3.8/5

Dessert began on a light note with a Yoghurt Cheesecake topped with Lemon & Thyme Curd, served in a Black Sesame Cone. Tangy, refreshing, and not too sweet, it provided a smooth transition from the savoury dishes.

WildSupperClub21
Pistachio Cake, Raspberry Relish, Vanilla Chantilly 4.2/5

We ended our meal with the Pistachio Cake crowned with Raspberry Relish and Vanilla Chantilly. Moist, nutty, and well-balanced, the pistachio flavour shone through beautifully without being overshadowed by the sweetness. It is a fitting finale to a delightful evening.

Bochinche @ Club Street - Indulge In Wet-aged Argentine Steaks and In-house Dry-aged Grain-fed Cuts.

IMG_2162

Bochinche, located on Club Street, has always been known for its fine curation of different types of meats and cuts from Argentina, Australia, USA, and Europe. Its wet-aged Argentine steaks and in-house dry-aged Grain Fed cuts grilled using Asado techniques over the Jarrah wood-fired griller are particularly noteworthy. The Argentinian starters and sides here are exceptional as well. For a quick lunch experience, its Lunch Menu offers its signature wet-aged steaks with a choice of add-on sides or desserts at an affordable price.

IMG_2167
Classic Provoleta 4/5

IMG_2177
Canasta De Pan 4.5/5

Classic Provoleta ($24) is a traditional Argentinian melted provolone cheese, served hot from the BBQ or oven, with a variety of toppings. We had a bubbling hot provolone cheese in cast iron, served with fermented Medley Tomato and a drizzle of honey. To get the full experience of this dish, eat it hot with Canasta De Pan ($12), a board of housemade Rosemary Focaccia, and "Pan De Queso", a South American cheese roll. Both breads were delightful and airy, complementing the rich melted cheese.

IMG_2169
Tropical “Leche De Tigre” Ceviche 5/5

Next, we had Tropical "Leche De Tigre" Ceviche ($24) featuring red snapper, dragon fruit, mango, papaya and pineapple tossed in for a refreshing fruity zest and zing. There were kaffir lime leaves mixed in as well, adding a layer of citrusy and earthy undertone.

IMG_2175
Argentina Empanadas Hand Cut Beef and Grilled Organic Corn (2pc) 3.5/5

IMG_2185
'Black Label' Ribeye 5/5

I tried the 250g 'Black Label' Ribeye ($35) for mains, featuring a grass-fed Buenos Aires steak, 28 Days Wet-Aged. Its great taste didn't just lie with its origin and the fact that it had been wet-aged for 28 days, but also with the skilful grilling on the wood fire to achieve that desired doneness. For an additional $10, you can either add on Hand-cut Beef and Grilled Organic Corn Argentina Empanadas (2pc) or Dessert. I had the Empanadas. The Grilled Organic Corn Empanadas was mouthwatering with aromatic creamy corn filling, contrasted with a flaky empanadas pastry.

IMG_2191
Argentinian Doughnut 4.8/5

For desserts, Argentinian Doughnut ($19) was a joy. It is light, airy and delicious with butteriness and an eggy flavour. They were served warm with contrasting velvety vanilla ice cream and Dulce De Leche. The sprinkle of toasted hazelnut added a good nutty flavour and a textural crunch to complete the dish.

Indulge in the sublime Octopus Confit ($42), a dish where every bite is a symphony of flavours and textures. The octopus has been lovingly slow-cooked for at least 4 hours, allowing it to reach the pinnacle of tenderness and softness.

The Aged Provoleta Cheese ($28) is heated until it becomes irresistibly soft, melty, and slightly browned on top. The ageing process intensifies its flavour, offering a combination of sharp, nutty, and slightly fruity notes. It's beautifully complemented with Calabria oregano and criolla sauce.

Frog Legs “A la Provenzal” 3.8/5

The Frog Legs "A la Provenzal" ($28) presents tender frog legs from France sautéed with roasted fingerling potatoes, garlic, butter, sage, and a splash of white wine. The result is moist and tender frog legs, although I preferred a richer sauce.
