VUE @ OUE Bayfront - New Summer Menu Featuring 2GR Australian Full-Blood Wagyu

Nestled atop OUE Bayfront, VUE continues to impress with its scenic views and elegant French-Asian cuisine. I recently returned to experience their newly launched Summer Menu, spotlighting the exceptional 2GR Australian Full-Blood Wagyu. We had the 4-course prix fixe menu priced at $168++, with optional upgrades available throughout the meal.

Our evening began with warm, house-baked bread served alongside olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar, a simple yet comforting start that set the tone for the meal to come.

2GR Beef Carpaccio (add $12) 4.8/5

I couldn’t resist starting with the 2GR Beef Carpaccio, and it was every bit as indulgent as expected. Delicate slices of richly marbled wagyu melted in the mouth, enhanced with earthy Manjimup truffle, creamy stracciatella, and generous shavings of parmigiana. A dish that lets the premium quality of the beef shine through with finesse.

Heirloom Tomatoes 4.5/5

For a lighter option, my dining companion selected the Heirloom Tomatoes. Naturally sweet and juicy, the tomatoes were complemented beautifully by smoked burrata, tonburi (a Japanese plant seed often called "land caviar"), black olives, and a refreshing mozzarella sorbet that added an unexpected but delightful brightness.

Premium Risotto (add $48) 4.2/5

I opted for the Premium Risotto, a decadent creation that combined tender 2GR beef tongue with Perigord foie gras and a luxurious topping of Oscietra caviar. Each bite was rich, creamy, and intensely flavourful, showcasing an indulgent balance of textures and umami.

Signature Uni Risotto (add $12) 4.5/5

My companion chose the Signature Uni Risotto, which substituted traditional risotto with Japanese multigrain rice, offering a nuttier, more textured mouthfeel. The dish, featuring Hokkaido sea urchin, uni foam, and parmigiano, delivered a briny, oceanic freshness, satisfying yet delicate.

2GR Beef Trio 4.2/5

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the 2GR Beef Trio, an expertly grilled plate featuring three cuts: striploin, oyster blade, and beef cheek. Each showcased a different facet of the wagyu's richness and tenderness, offering variety in both flavour and texture. It is a must-order for beef lovers.

Spanish Lubina 4.2/5

For something different, we tried the Spanish Lubina (sea bass). The fish is dry-aged to deepen its natural flavours and coated with Dukkah spices for a nutty, aromatic crust. Finished with a bright tomato fondue, the dish was clean, elegant, and full of Mediterranean flair.

Strawberry Osmanthus 4.5/5

To end the meal on a refreshing note, the Strawberry Osmanthus featured layers of genoise sponge, rhubarb marmalade, and a light yoghurt sorbet. Delicately floral and not overly sweet, it was the perfect palate cleanser.

Pistachio Apricot 4.5/5

For a richer finish, the Pistachio Apricot dessert paired Sicilian pistachio ice cream with a tangy apricot compote, all topped with crispy brown butter kataifi. It was a harmonious blend of creamy, nutty, and tart.

As expected in a fine dining experience, we concluded with a lovely selection of petit fours.
For those looking to enjoy VUE at a more accessible price point, take advantage of their Sunset Dinner (5:30pm–7:30pm) or Late Night Dinner (9:30pm onwards) promotions. The 3-course menu is priced at $88 (U.P. $128), and the 4-course at $128 (U.P. $168), offering excellent value for the experience and quality on offer.

VUE’s Summer Menu is a masterclass in showcasing top-quality ingredients, particularly the 2GR Australian Full-Blood Wagyu—elevated with luxurious accompaniments and precise execution. Whether you're here for the views, the beef, or both, this is a culinary experience that delivers from start to finish.

VUE @ OUE Bayfront- Showcases the Exquisite Flavours of SILERE New Zealand Alpine Merino Lamb in Its Spring Menu

This spring, VUE at OUE Bayfront presents an elevated spring menu featuring an exclusive selection of Silere Alpine Merino Lamb dishes. Raised free-range in the wild alpine meadows of New Zealand, these lambs graze on golden tussocks and wild mountain thyme, which naturally contribute to their distinctive flavour profile.

Silere NZ Alpine Merino Lamb Tartare 4/5

The cold appetiser of Silere NZ Alpine Merino Lamb Tartare truly showcased the exquisite meat. The tender texture of the lamb paired beautifully with oscietra caviar, pickled sakura leaves, and egg yolk gel, enhancing its richness and depth of flavour. A subtle gaminess lingered at the end of each bite, adding an intriguing nuance. A touch more acidity could have further elevated the tartare.

Zeeland Kingfish Confit 4.5/5

Another standout cold appetiser was the Zeeland Kingfish Confit, complemented by pickled kabu, grilled mussels, and smoked bonito vinegar. The dish delivered both richness in texture and layered umami flavours, balanced by just the right amount of acidity.

White Asparagus 4.2/5

For a vegetarian warm appetiser, the seasonal White Asparagus was well-executed, its grilled smokiness enhancing the asparagus's natural mildness. The lion's mane mushroom tempura added a satisfying crunch and a moreish quality to the dish. A drizzle of herb oil and sweet, piquant choron sauce tied the elements together harmoniously.

Scallop & Pearls 4.2/5

The seafood warm appetiser, Scallop & Pearls (+$18), was a showstopper. The scallops were succulent and perfectly seared, paired with buttery cauliflower purée and creamy oscietra caviar, delivering a silky, indulgent mouthfeel. A hint of mild curry cream and pickled onions added depth and a slight acidity to balance the richness.

Wild Forest Mushroom Risotto 4.2/5

For the risotto course, we sampled the Wild Forest Mushroom Risotto and Signature Uni Risotto (+$12), each offering a perfectly cooked rice texture. The Wild Forest Mushroom Risotto featured porcini and sautéed chestnut mushrooms enriched with Parmigiano and truffle for a deep, earthy flavour. While deliciously rich and umami-packed, it became slightly too salty towards the end.

Uni Risotto 4.5/5

The Uni Risotto had a unique briny and cheesy flavour profile, enhanced by the use of Japanese multi-grain rice, which added a nutty dimension that paired well with the creamy sea urchin.

Silere NZ Alpine Merino Lamb Rack 4/5

Under the Mains, the Silere NZ Alpine Merino Lamb Rack was presented as a Lamb Wellington, wrapped in flaky, golden pastry with tender, blushing-pink lamb at its core. While the lamb's flavour was relatively mild, the dish was elevated by a Pithivier chilli & cumin pesto and a tangy buttermilk sauce, which provided a bold, flavourful contrast.

Spanish Lubina 4.5/5

For the seafood main, the Spanish Lubina was well-cooked with a crisp, golden-brown skin. It was enhanced with Sardinian bottarga alongside tender braised leek and kale velouté, adding a depth of oceanic and herbaceous flavours.

Sobacha Dark Chocolate 4.8/5

For a decadent finish, the Sobacha Dark Chocolate stood out with its nutty blond buckwheat mousse, fermented soy caramel, and cereal milk ice cream — a sublime combination of textures and flavours. The prized Shizuoka Musk Melon (+$28) was a delightful choice for a lighter option. This air-flown melon was served with fresh berries and seasonal sorbet, allowing its natural sweetness and juiciness to shine.

Shizuoka Musk Melon 4.2/5

Available from 28 March 2025 to 23 June 2025, the Spring Menu features 3-course $128++ | 4-course $168++ | 5-course $198++ per guest
