Man Fu Yuan @ InterContinental Singapore - Four Hands Collaboration between Man Fu Yuan and Alma From 8 to 10 May 2025

An exciting Four-Hand Collaboration is coming up this May, presented by Executive Chef Aaron Tan of Man Fu Yuan and Executive Chef Yew Eng Tong of the Michelin-starred Alma by Juan Amador. This dining experience, Ties That Bind, will be available for three days only from May 8 to 10 2025, during dinner service at Man Fu Yuan Restaurant, located within InterContinental Singapore.

Chef Aaron Tan and Chef Yew Eng Tong share a deep personal friendship and mutual respect for each other's culinary craft. The resulting menu is thus designed to reflect their individual culinary stories while exploring their shared passion for gastronomy and innovation in the kitchen.

The Ties That Bind 7-Course Dinner Menu is priced at $268++ per person, with an optional wine pairing available for $98++ per person. Though it’s billed as a 7-course dinner, guests will actually enjoy 13 different creations, each offering an indulgent experience. It’s highly recommended to arrive hungry and ready to enjoy every bite!

沉默叉烧 Echoes of the Roast, presented by Man Fu Yuan and Alma by Juan Amador 4.2/5

To begin, the Amuse Bouche is a delightful five-part series starting with the first bite, Echoes of the Roast, is a nostalgic throwback of sorts — the very dish that ignited Chef Aaron and Chef Eng Tong's collaboration. It all began when the chefs experimented with ageing techniques applied to traditional Cantonese roast dishes. This creation features a 21-day dry-aged Iberico pork collar elegantly presented on a flower-shaped slice of rock melon. Imagine char siew with a deeper flavour — delicious!

籽籽生香 Multi-Seed Man Tou, Bak Kua Mayo, presented by Alma by Juan Amador 4.8/5

The Multi-Seed Man Tou with Bak Kua Mayo is an interesting take on what is usually a brioche dish. Instead, the dish features soft and fluffy Man Tou, with a texture reminiscent of a light, airy doughnut. The bak kua mayo perfectly pairs with the Man Tou, with a consistency similar to condensed milk, making it ideal for dipping rather than spreading. Against my better judgement and consideration for my stomach space, I had two helpings because it was so good!

浮海之珍 Seaweed Foie Bo Luo Bao, presented by Alma by Juan Amador 4/5

The third bite, the Seaweed Foie Bo Luo Bao, is a delicate bite-sized bo luo bao topped with a sliver of foie gras. The combination offers a little pop of umami and creaminess in your mouth. However, it is not my personal favourite, as I am not fond of foie gras in general.

蟹与皇 Imperial Tides, presented by Man Fu Yuan 4.5/5

Imperial Tides is a regally presented dish featuring flower crab. The delicate crab meat is shaped into little quenelles and mixed with crab roe, onion, and an aromatic ginger herb oil. Diners are provided with little spoons to enjoy the meat from the crab shells, and the roe and onion provide texture contrast to the smooth crab meat. The presentation, with accompanying dry ice and flowers, is as exquisite as its flavour.

珍珠满潮 Tide of Pearls, presented by Man Fu Yuan 4/5

Tide of Pearls offers a triple indulgence of oysters. It features a plump, chilled Canadian oyster complemented by premium oyster sauce and finely minced dried oyster. It's also topped with Ikura, creating a one-bite flavour experience that packs a punch.

鱻 Arctic Char, presented by Alma by Juan Amador 4.8/5

I was thoroughly impressed by the presentation of the Arctic Char, which looked like a stunning jewel. A signature dish of Alma, it embodies sustainability with a no-waste approach. Even the fish bones are transformed into fish sauce. The Arctic Char is complemented by refreshing watermelon and passionfruit salsa and topped with N25 caviar. Lovely edible flowers and micro herbs adorn the sides of the dish. It is just so pretty. I took my time to admire this piece of culinary art before tucking in.

金丝岩龙 Golden Silk Lobster, presented by Man Fu Yuan 4.8/5

It was followed by another masterful dish — the Golden Silk Lobster, presented on a plate resembling a pillow. This dish features deep-fried lobster stuffed with tobiko, with a hint of Sichuan spiciness, and topped with golden egg floss. It was remarkably delicious when paired with the velvety salted egg yolk sauce.

雪中之碳 A4 Snow-Aged Wagyu, presented by Alma by Juan Amador 4.5/5

The next dish, A4 Snow-Aged Wagyu, piqued our curiosity about the snow ageing technique. This method focuses on natural preservation and ageing in a cold, freezing environment, with the goal of achieving a delicate, clean taste. The Wagyu is also coated with charred leek, which was transformed into a black powder, a fermented black garlic puree, and a rich cocoa jus. I liked the black garlic puree, but I found the charred leek to slightly overpower the taste of the wagyu.

生米; 熟饭 Earth’s Legacy, presented by Man Fu Yuan 4.2/5

Earth's Legacy is a comforting glutinous rice dish with a duo of preserved cured meats, concluding the savoury dishes. The rice's aromatic, savoury taste and chewy bite deliver a feeling of tradition and warmth with each spoonful.

紫.苏.桃 Poached Peach, presented by Alma by Juan Amador 4.5/5

The Poached Peach is a creative and pretty dessert that reflects the soft loveliness of spring. A sweet poached peach is paired with delicate sakura espuma, a soursop sorbet, salted buttermilk sago, and a touch of red shiso. I usually find spring-themed desserts to be too sweet, so I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of the soursop sorbet to add tanginess and balance to this dish.

Petit Fours, presented by Man Fu Yuan and Alma by Juan Amador 4/5

To end off the entire experience, the Petit Fours feature three delightful confections: the First & The Last Cantonese Egg Waffle and the Eternal Affection Golden Osmanthus Praline, both presented by Man Fu Yuan, and the Verdant Harmony Pandan Financier which was presented by Alma by Juan Amador. Of the three, I found the egg waffle the most intriguing. It is filled with strawberry aioli and topped with chili chicken floss—a playful combination that works surprisingly well! On the other hand, my tablemate preferred the pandan financier, which combines the flavours of pandan and matcha into one bite.

It is clear that both chefs and their teams have gone all out to impress diners in terms of taste and presentation. It's a nonstop journey of creative, visually stunning dishes that keep surprising and delighting, each course showcasing the dedication and artistry behind every element of the meal. By the end of the meal, I was completely stuffed — it's also definitely a generous feast with lots to eat. Don't miss out on this special, limited-time menu; reservations are now open.

Lime Restaurant @ PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering - Elevates Dinner Buffet with Seafood Symphony

Lime Restaurant at PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering has recently introduced a refreshed dinner menu. Seafood Symphony, available daily, features a lavish spread, including an enhanced three-tier fresh crustacean tower alongside new cooked seafood dishes.

One of the key highlights is the three-tier crustacean tower. Initially a single tier, the spread has now been elevated to include Boston Lobster, Snow Crab, Chilean Scallops, Yabbies, Tiger Prawns, Black Mussels, White Clams, and Whelk.

Indonesian-Style Curry Crab 4/5

Pickering Slipper Lobster Laksa 4/5

The Asian Kitchen station continues to serve mouthwatering hot seafood dishes, showcasing bold flavours such as Indonesian-style Curry Crab and their signature Pickering Slipper Lobster Laksa. The laksa was robust, while I found the Slipper Lobster slightly overcooked.

Buah Keluak Black Duck 4.5/5

Known for their Peranakan spread, Executive Chef Alvin Leong has introduced a new speciality — Buah Keluak Black Duck. Swapping its usual brown exterior for an enigmatic black coat, the duck took on a subtle nutty nuance while remaining just as tantalising and succulent. It was served with a piquant chilli and calamansi sauce alongside the classic plum sauce.

Flower Clams in Collagen Broth 4.8/5

Steamed Mussels in White Wine Broth 4/5

One of my favourites was the Flower Clams in Collagen Broth. The broth was utterly delicious — aromatic, slightly milky, sweet, and savoury. I even grabbed some buns from the Bread Station to soak up every last drop. Another delectable creation was the Steamed Mussels in White Wine Broth, made even more flavorful with herbs and stewed cherry tomatoes.

Sous Vide Roast Angus Beef 4/5

Crispy Roast Pork Porchetta 4.5/5

The Western station offers hearty options like Sous Vide Roast Angus Beef and Crispy Roast Pork Porchetta. The latter stood out as one of the better versions I've had, with a perfectly crisp crackling and an even balance of fat and meat beneath the crisped skin.

Truffle Cream Parmesan Wheel Pasta 4/5

You'll also find comforting options such as Truffle Cream Parmesan Wheel Pasta.

Trio of Chocolate Fountains

The magnificent Trio of Chocolate Fountains takes the Dessert Station up a notch. They feature flowing streams of Dark Chocolate, Matcha, and Raspberry — perfect for coating marshmallows, strawberries, grapes, biscotti, and more.

Min Jiang at Dempsey @ Dempsey Hill - Celebrates 6th Anniversary with a Six-Hands Collaboration

In celebration of its sixth anniversary, Min Jiang at Dempsey presents the 'Six-Hands Anniversary Showcase' from 7 to 12 April 2025. This exclusive collaboration brings together the exceptional artistry of three renowned chefs — Master Chef Goh Chee Kong, Chef Pung Lu Tin, and Chef Daniel Koh. Three specially curated set menus will be featured, culminating in a one-night-only 7-course dinner on 12 April.

Foie Gras Terrine Monaka 4/5

The 7-course dinner begins with an Amuse Bouche: Foie Gras Terrine Monaka by Chef Daniel. Drawing from his classical Western training, preparing this terrine involves a meticulous two-day process, including steaming, baking, and an ice bath. Encased between crisp monaka (Japanese-style wafer) and a delicate slice of orange, it offered a unique and delightful way to enjoy terrine — its luscious, buttery texture reminiscent of an ice cream filling or the indulgent richness of a cold butter slab. A subtle hint of brandy aroma also came through and intertwined beautifully with the bright citrus notes from the orange.

Min Jiang Appetiser Platter 3.8/5

Next was the Min Jiang Appetiser Platter, featuring Pan-Seared Hokkaido Scallop with Pineapple Lime Sauce by Chef Pung and Typhoon Shelter Crab Claws by Master Chef Goh. The premium Hokkaido scallop was perfectly seared, boasting a succulent interior and a beautifully caramelized exterior. Its flavours were elevated by the tangy, refreshing sauce and an unexpected depth of umami from a final touch of fermented shrimp paste. The crab claw was equally delightful — a harmonious blend of crispy garlic, dried chilli, curry leaves, and aromatic spices, with a subtle sweetness from honey used in the frying process.

Double-Boiled Morels, Agaricus Mushrooms, Abalone, and Dried Scallops 4.5/5

The soup course was wholesome and nourishing — Double-Boiled Morels, Agaricus Mushrooms, Abalone, and Dried Scallops in a Whole Mini Pumpkin by Chef Pung. The broth had a light yet slightly gelatinous consistency, offering a beautiful depth of savouriness and sweetness with comforting herbaceous notes coming through.

Yin Yang Fish Rolls 4/5

Next was Chef Daniel's Yin Yang Fish Rolls with Salmon, Sea Perch, and Tianjin Cabbage. Resembling delicate maki, the salmon and sea perch were wrapped in tender Tianjin cabbage, which offered a refreshing contrast to the richness of the oily fish. The savoury soy sauce blend elevated the dish beautifully, adding a perfect touch of umami. While the slice of truffle nestled between the fish layers was subtle and not particularly pronounced, the overall dish was well-executed and thoroughly enjoyable.

Baked Pork Rib with Hawthorn Sauce 5/5

Chef Pung's Baked Pork Rib with Hawthorn Sauce details the laborious preparation process involving overnight marination, deep frying, and steaming. The pork was tender with a slight chew. The hawthorn sauce glazing the meat, alongside diced seasonal fruits, provided a gentle acidity to cut through the richness of the meat.

Stewed Lobster in Superior Stock with Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice 5/5

The final main course was Chef Goh's highly anticipated Stewed Lobster in Superior Stock with Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice. The lobster was expertly stewed in a rich, flavorful broth, resulting in tender, succulent meat. Complementing it was a crisp, golden deep-fried glutinous rice ball, offering a delightful contrast with its crunchy exterior and satisfyingly chewy center. The luxurious broth tied both elements together beautifully, enhancing each bite with its depth of flavour.

Deep-Fried Yam Pastry with Custard and Pistachio Gelato 4/5

Dessert featured a warm and cold pairing of Deep-Fried Yam Pastry with Custard and Pistachio Gelato by Chef Goh. Cutting through the delicate, flaky yam puff revealed a luscious, savoury custard centre that oozed with each bite. The pistachio gelato was velvety and nutty, providing a lovely contrast in both temperature and texture. While the flavours were enjoyable, the overall sweetness of the dessert could have been toned down slightly for better balance.

The Set Menus 7 to 12 April 2025
5-course lunch menu for min. 2 persons at $126++ per person
6-course dinner menu for min. 2 persons at $146++ per person

Nobu @ Four Seasons Hotel Singapore - Unveil a Luxurious Teppanyaki Omakase Experience

Located within the Four Seasons Hotel Singapore, Nobu Singapore has unveiled a luxurious, private Teppanyaki Omakase experience, perfect for a special dinner date. From 10th March to 11th April 2025, guests can indulge in one of two exquisite Teppanyaki Omakase menus, each priced at $235++ per person, with an optional beverage pairing for $98++ per person.

This dining experience ensures utmost exclusivity, with Nobu accepting only one booking per day. It can accommodate a party of minimally two guests up to a maximum of six guests. Guests will be seated in the private Teppanyaki room, where they can fully enjoy Nobu's culinary artistry, which showcases traditional Japanese cooking techniques with Japanese Peruvian flavours. There is the option to close the room's screens for even more privacy.

We had the Teppanyaki Omakase B menu and were honoured to be served by the esteemed Chef Hideki Maeda, an accomplished protégé of Nobu Matsuhisa.

Upon arrival, we were served a refreshing welcome drink (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options available) featuring sudachi, a Japanese citrus known for its high vitamin C and antioxidant content.

Amuse Bouche: Mini Sashimi Tacos

This was accompanied by an amuse-bouche of two Mini Tacos - very light and crunchy taco skins filled with marinated chopped sashimi and tomatoes for a tasty burst of flavour.

Nobu Style Cold Starters 4.2/5

The first course was a trio of Nobu-style Cold Starters, the selection of which varies according to availability. We were treated to a spoonful of salmon with guacamole and crispy tofu skin, a dish of toro tartare topped with Uni and caviar in a wasabi dressing, and kanpachi (amberjack) drizzled with a chilli ponzu sauce. Each bite was cold and refreshing, with very punchy flavours, especially that chilli ponzu sauce!

Baby Abalone with Butter Soy 4.8/5

The first teppanyaki dish was Baby Abalone with Butter Soy Sauce, and it exceeded my expectations. The baby abalone, sourced from South Africa, was expertly cooked by Chef Hideki for a tender and delicate bite. Chef Hideki also paired the abalone with an absolutely delicious butter soy sauce and garnished the dish with a fragrant ginger flower.

Asparagus Dry Miso 4/5

The next dish was Asparagus with Dry Miso, served with a sous vide egg, ikura, bonito flakes, and drizzled with yuzu and olive oil. Conceptualised as a salad, diners are encouraged to mix all the ingredients together for a hearty bite. While the dish was tasty, the difference in temperature between the various ingredients didn't work so well for me.

Shrimp and Lobster in Spicy Lemon Garlic 4.5/5

The Shrimp and Lobster in Spicy Lemon Garlic featured local Black Tiger shrimp and Canadian lobster. Each piece was plump and juicy, cooked until it turned a beautiful, vibrant red. The lemon garlic sauce elevated the seafood's flavours and added a welcome measure of spice to the dish.

A5 Japanese Wagyu Steak 5/5

We eagerly anticipated the A5 Japanese Wagyu Steak and were thrilled when Chef Hideki cooked a whole piece of steak for each of us. We requested our steaks to be medium rare, and they arrived delightfully juicy and tender. It was so tender that no knife was needed; we enjoyed the melt-in-your-mouth cubes of steak using only chopsticks — such was the softness of the beef. Accompanying the steak was a selection of flavourful condiments: jalapeño salt (which is a special recipe of Chef Hideki and intriguingly has a subtle heat), teriyaki sauce, garlic chips, wasabi and fresh lime.

Sushi Selections with Miso Soup 4.2/5

To conclude the savoury courses, we were served an Assortment of Sushi with Miso Soup, where the lineup also varies depending on availability. We had Tuna, Nodoguro, Hotaru Ika (seasonal firefly squid), and Tamago, together with a warm and comforting miso soup. This was nice on its own, but I must admit that accustomed to having fried rice at the end of a teppanyaki course meal, I would have preferred a warm rice dish to finish rather than sushi.

Chef’s Dessert 4.2/5

For dessert, the pastry chef presented an elegant confection featuring a sesame parfait base topped with cinnamon ice cream, olive oil crumble, and a crisp vanilla tuile. The dessert was not overly sweet, and the flavours came together well, making it a nice conclusion to the meal.

Petit Fours

As a thoughtful gesture, guests are presented with a charming gift box containing petit fours. Inside, we found a rich hazelnut dark chocolate, a delicate raspberry macaron, and a raspberry Sakura white chocolate bonbon. This was a sweet ending to the dining experience, and you can bring it home to enjoy the next day.

This private Teppanyaki Omakase at Nobu is undoubtedly a wonderful experience. After all, how often do you get the privilege of having a private chef cook exclusively for you? The food is also delicious, and the portions satisfyingly substantial. It is a memorable experience that would be wonderful to treat your loved ones to.

The alternative Teppanyaki Omakase A menu features Chilean sea bass in place of baby abalone, lobster on hoba instead of shrimp and lobster, and egg fried rice instead of sushi.

Mansion 7 @ Tanjong Pagar - Exquisite Dim Sum and Classic Cantonese Creations with Innovative Twists

Mansion 7 is a relatively new Cantonese restaurant located in the outdoor car park next to Tanjong Pagar MRT. It offers creative twists on classic Cantonese dishes while maintaining the use of high-quality ingredients and exquisite presentation.

The space is well-suited for gatherings and business meetings. The staff was enthusiastic about ensuring our comfort and knowledgeable about their food.

Chicken Wing Stuffed with Bird’s Nest and Crab 4.2/5

We started with an off-menu special: Chicken Wing Stuffed with Bird's Nest and Crab. While the filling was milder than we expected, its natural flavours shone through, complemented by a crispy exterior.

椒盐活鮑魚 Salt & Pepper Live Abalone 4.5/5

The 椒盐活鮑魚 Salt & Pepper Live Abalone (Seasonal Price) was such a treat. The abalone was perfectly tender with a slight crunch, coated in an addictive chili seasoning. Both my dining partner and I agreed it was one of the best abalone dishes we’ve had recently.

潮州金鱼饺 Angel Goldfish Dumplings 4.2/5

Next, dim sum dishes arrived, beginning with the beautifully presented 潮州金鱼饺 Angel Goldfish Dumplings ($11 for 3). Wrapped in delicate skin, the filling of mushrooms, lemongrass, and crab meat was unexpectedly tangy but harmonised well.

七号公馆樱花虾饺 Mansion 7 Fresh Prawn Dumpling 4.5/5

We moved to the steamed items, starting with their signature 七号公馆樱花虾饺 Mansion 7 Fresh Prawn Dumpling ($9 for 3). The thin skin was on point and carried within it juicy prawn chunks.

芋茸流沙包 Taro 'Lava' Buns 3.8/5

The 芋茸流沙包 Taro 'Lava' Buns ($9 for 3) were slightly too sweet for our liking, and we wished for a stronger yam flavour.

冲绳黑糖叉烧包 Okinawa Brown Sugar Char Siew Bun 4.2/5

In contrast, the 冲绳黑糖叉烧包 Okinawa Brown Sugar Char Siew Bun ($9 for 3) fared a lot better. I am not usually a fan of char siew buns due to how sweet they can get, but Mansion 7’s rendition is well-balanced, featuring a subtle brown sugar fragrance and smoky char siew.

脆炸麻婆豆腐卷 Si Chuan Mapo Tofu Beancurd Rolls 4/5

The 脆炸麻婆豆腐卷 Si Chuan Mapo Tofu Beancurd Rolls ($9), while slightly oily, delivered a bold spice and crunch. The map tofu filling alone would be perfect with white rice.

杏香百花萝卜糕 Carrot Squid Paste Cake 4.2/5

Mansion 7's inventive twists on dim sum can be seen in many dishes, such as the 杏香百花萝卜糕 Carrot Squid Paste Cake ($10). This dish features carrot cake layered with squid paste, served with a side of Thai sweet chilli sauce.

Lobster in Salted Egg and Butter Cream Sauce 4/5

Apart from dim sum, Mansion 7 also offers a wide range of live seafood, vegetables, barbecue meats and more. We had the Lobster in Salted Egg and Butter Cream Sauce (Seasonal Price) and while the lobster was very fresh, I personally preferred a strong salted egg flavour. Other flavours are available to order, including steamed in HK style, sashimi style, wok-baked with truffle sauce and more.

梁祝鸳鸯蝴蝶酥 Love Story of Thousand Layer Butterfly Puff 4.2/5

Moving on to desserts, we began with the visually stunning 梁祝鸳鸯蝴蝶酥 Love Story of Thousand Layer Butterfly Puff ($11). Its delicate, flaky layers enclosed a mildly sweet sweet potato filling.

开心果麻糍 Homemade Pistachio Mochi 4.2/5

We enjoyed the 开心果麻糍 Homemade Pistachio Mochi ($9) as well even though the mochi skin was not chewy type we expected. It was generously stuffed with crushed pistachio filling, being nutty and fragrant.

招牌北海道3.6现烤芝士塔 3.6 Hokkaido Cheese Tart 4.2/5

My favourite dessert was the 招牌北海道3.6现烤芝士塔 3.6 Hokkaido Cheese Tart ($13). These tiny bites were amazing, with oozy lava-like cheese filling contained in an extremely light and flaky tart shell. The cheese was rich but not overpowering.

雪莲子鸡蛋茶 Mt. Fresh Picked Chinese Herbal Egg Treasure Tea 3.8/5

Finally, we tried the 雪莲子鸡蛋茶 Mt. Fresh Picked Chinese Herbal Egg Treasure Tea ($8), a unique traditional dish of hard-boiled quail eggs infused in a tea base with Chinese herbs and spices. This was more of an acquired taste.
