One Prawn Co @ New Bahru - A Modern Asian Seafood Restaurant That Challenges Traditional Flavour Pairings

From its humble beginnings as a hawker stall at Golden Mile Food Centre, One Prawn Co has undergone an impressive evolution under the bold vision of Chef Gwyneth Ang. After expanding into a dine-in space at Macpherson (later rebranded as Zhup Zhup), her adventurous culinary journey continues with a brand-new modern Asian seafood restaurant at Singapore’s latest lifestyle hotspot, New Bahru.

Fresh Ostra Regal Oysters and Lime Cheek 4.2/5

We started the meal with Fresh Ostra Regal Oysters ($36), which delivered sweet and briny flavours that filled the palate with the essence of the ocean. The lime cheek provided a subtle citrusy lift, enhancing the natural freshness of the oysters.

Beef Bulgogi and Bafun Uni 4.2/5

An unexpected yet harmonious pairing, the Beef Bulgogi and Bafun Uni ($24) was served atop a buttery, crispy toast. The rich umami flavours of the bulgogi and uni blended seamlessly, creating a bold, indulgent bite.

Seaweed Skate and Lime Crema 4.2/5

The Seaweed Skate ($12) was crispy on the exterior and moist inside, offering a meaty and satisfying bite. The lime crema added a refreshing zesty contrast, complementing the fish's natural flavours.

Dry-aged Hamachi, Kimchi, Puffed Rice 4.5/5

Though visually unassuming, this dish was a pleasant surprise. The tangy kimchi amplified the umami depth of the Dry-aged Hamachi ($26), while the puffed rice provided a light crunch, adding textural contrast to the dish.

Haricot Verts and Burrata 5/5

A highly recommended dish, the Haricot Verts and Burrata ($24) pairs sambal with burrata — an unexpected but genius combination. The spicy, umami-laden sambal beautifully complements the creamy, milky burrata. This dish was so good that I immediately recommended it to my friends as a must-order.

Coconut Chicken Broth, Prawns White Fungus 3/5

The Coconut Chicken Broth ($26) with prawns and white fungus fell short of expectations. The broth was too salty, overshadowing the sweetness of the coconut and chicken essence. That said, the fresh, perfectly cooked prawns were a highlight, boasting a crunchy and succulent bite.

Holy Haddock! - Signature Fish Burger 4.8/5

The star of the night was the Holy Haddock! – Signature Fish Burger ($24). A buttery toasted brioche bun sandwiched with a moist, flaky fish patty, elevated by a yuzu aioli that added a bright, citrusy touch. For an extra indulgence, diners can top up $75 for 30g of caviar, creating a next-level fish burger experience.

King Crab, Preserved Radish Butter, Green Chilli 4.2/5

The King Crab ($32 per 100g) was generously topped with preserved radish butter and green chilli, which beautifully complemented the sweetness of the crab meat. While the accompanying sourdough bread was a nice touch, there wasn't enough sauce to mop up, leaving us wishing for more of that flavorful buttery goodness.

Gindara, Seaweed Congee, Jujube 4/5

Instead of the crowd-favourite Lobster Poached Rice, we opted for the Gindara, Seaweed Congee ($20 per 100g), and Jujube. The smoky, crispy skin and fatty, flavourful flesh of the gindara were delightful. However, this dish is not recommended for children, as the fish contains many small bones. The smooth and creamy congee, infused with seaweed and jujube, added an extra layer of depth and comfort to the dish.

Tropical Fruits, Lime Mousse, Pavlova 4.2/5

To wrap up our meal, we indulged in the Pavlova with Tropical Fruits and Lime Mousse ($15). The light and airy pavlova was perfectly balanced — not overly sweet — with the tropical fruits adding a bright, juicy contrast. The lime mousse introduced a refreshing, zesty finish, making this a fantastic ending to the meal.

One Prawn Co's latest venture at New Bahru is an exciting fusion of Asian flavours with contemporary execution. Chef Gwyneth continues to push boundaries, offering creative dishes that challenge traditional flavour pairings while maintaining familiar comfort. The Haricot Verts and Burrata, Holy Haddock! Fish Burger and King Crab with Preserved Radish Butter are definite standouts, making this a must-visit for seafood lovers looking for something new and adventurous.

Marcy's @ Duxton Road - A Seafood-focused Restaurant with an Eclectic Fusion of Styles Combining Modern Sophistication

Having previously enjoyed a lovely date night at Marcy's Restaurant, I was eager to return and try their refreshed menu, along with a special festive offering that they have prepared for the season. A seafood restaurant at its core, Marcy's has earned a well-deserved reputation for delectable dishes perfect for sharing. We found the portions to be quite generous too! Every dish is thoughtfully crafted with high-quality ingredients from delicate seafood bites to hearty indulgent mains.

I also absolutely love the ambience at Marcy's, an eclectic fusion of styles combining modern sophistication with the intimate charm of a speakeasy. Think dim lighting, rich textures, and unique, quirky design elements that come together to create a luxurious and stylish space.

Pacific Amberjack Tiradito 4.2/5

The first dish we sampled was the Pacific Amberjack Tiradito ($29), showcasing thick slices of raw amberjack (yellowtail) with sundream tomatoes and Avruga caviar for a touch of luxury. The tomatoes' slight tartness perfectly complemented the fish's clean, sweet flavour. A drizzle of fish sauce added some depth of flavour for a nice balance of freshness and complexity.

Crab Toast 4.2/5

The next dish was a special request of mine — Marcy's Crab Toast ($26) — since I have fond memories of how yummy it was the last time I had it. This dish features a good amount of tender, sweet crab meat in a rich anchovy mascarpone. The brioche toast itself is also crisped up in umami butter. It's definitely on the rich side, but since we were sharing the dish, I found it to be a delicious slice of indulgence.

Hasselback Frites 4/5

Another dish of comfort food arrived in the form of Hasselback Frites ($18). The top half of the potatoes are thinly sliced and deep-fried, whilst the bottom is left untouched for a soft, fluffy finish. These frites were topped with a tangy Patagonian prawn cocktail and olive tartar, offering a contrast in flavour and texture. As a self-professed potato lover, whilst I didn’t notice a very large difference in texture between the crispy top and the soft bottom of the potato, I still found this to be a satisfying dish.

Rock Lobster Wellington 4.5/5

We were treated to a beautifully crafted seasonal special for our main course: the Rock Lobster Wellington. This exquisite dish featured succulent rock lobster, tender salmon, and savoury mushroom and spinach duxelles. The sweet, delicate lobster and buttery salmon created a luxurious filling, perfectly balanced by the earthy depth of the duxelles. All of this was wrapped in a golden, flaky puff pastry, baked to perfection. The dish was finished with a light marigold hollandaise and enhanced by a special seaweed caviar (supplement required). A well-executed seafood take on the traditional Wellington.

Pavlova 3.8/5

By this point, we were absolutely stuffed, but there was no way we could leave without trying one of Marcy’s "happy ending" desserts. We had the Pavlova which featured a light, crispy meringue on top, and a rich, creamy base layer of cheesecake. The smoothness of the cheesecake complemented the airy crunch of the meringue, and the dessert was finished with fruits, adding a burst of colour and freshness to every bite. It is however, a little on the sweet side.

You will find that Marcy's is a popular choice for both couples enjoying a romantic date night and groups of friends celebrating special occasions. From the first bite to the last, Marcy's feels special and comfortable, ensuring it's a meal to remember.

FLUTES @ Guoco Midtown - Ushers in New Era at Iconic Heritage Venue

With 20 years of history, the award-winning and iconic FLUTES embarks on a new chapter with its relocation to Midtown House, the historic former Beach Road Station. The new space is elegant with a brand of timeless charm, and the design pays homage to the building’s colonial history, including thoughtful touches such as louvred panel windows. FLUTES's culinary direction is guided by Australian Executive Chef Peter Rollinson. The menu is European at heart, but it uses fresh Australian native ingredients and some local influences.

Snacks 4.2/5

We were welcomed with a pink panther guava mocktail, a cheeky reference to Midtown House's police station history. Snacks followed, consisting of three delectable bites: a smokey grilled skewer of BBQ Yumbah Abalone and kombu butter topped with shaved truffle, a warm and moreish Potato Croquette with Bafun Uni and Oscietra Caviar, and a more adventurous Kangaroo Tartare with beetroot and goat's cheese.

Sald of Alaskan King Crab 4.8/5

The first course was a beautiful Salad of Alaskan King Crab, rolled within delicate layers of velvety avocado, topped with a row of Ikura pearls and accented with horseradish and dill. Light, fresh and exquisitely balanced, this was an absolute pleasure to eat.

Aquna Murray Cod 4.5/5

The second course was also something from the sea — an excellent piece of Aquna Murray Cod with firm yet pleasingly flaky flesh. The skin was very crispy to contrast with the flesh, and the fish was served with a medley of spring vegetables and some smoked mussel butter.

Celeriac & Manjimup Truffle 4.5/5

The third course, Celeriac & Manjimup Truffle, was unique. The presentation reminds me of Kouign Amann! Incredibly, they managed to slice such thin layers of celeriac without breaking it. The entire roll of celeriac is made from a single unbroken long slice. The edges are crispy for a slight crunch and coated with a bit of sweetness. It is served with langoustine on the side, and Manjimup truffle shavings. I loved that vegetables were the highlight here, and the langoustine was a complement.

Gin & Tonic Granita 4.5/5

As a palate cleanser, we were served a Gin & Tonic Granita with kiwi & apple. As you probably already guessed, this was icy, sparkly and refreshing. The botanical flavours of the gin and tonic granita go well with the zesty fruitiness of kiwi and apple.

BBQ Zabuton Satsuma Gyu Skewer 5/5

The fourth course was a melt-in-your-mouth tender and flavourful BBQ Zabuton Satsuma Gyu Skewer. Slices of buttery, well-marbled beef are threaded onto a skewer and grilled to perfection. It was served with a light sauce that enhances the flavour of the wagyu and some beetroot slices for balance. There is also a welcome addition of some spice in the form of chilli padi! This creation is delicious and a convincing highlight of the tasting menu.

Jerusalem Artichoke Ice Cream 4.2/5

For the pre-dessert, I was excited to try the Jerusalem Artichoke Ice Cream. I have only had artichoke ice cream once before in Copenhagen, and I was happy to taste this unique confection again. With Manjimup black truffle and caramelised milk crumbs, it is subtly sweet yet also savoury, nutty, and earthy at the same time. It is certainly a departure from the usual ice cream experience, offering diners something more exploratory.

Strawberry & Lime Pavlova 4.2/5

Dessert was a bright summer treat of Strawberry & Lime Pavlova with Mascarpone and Calamansi Sorbet. There is a light and airy meringue, fluffy whipped mascarpone cream and lots of fresh strawberry cubes to balance the tartness of the calamansi sorbet.

Sweet Treats 4/5

Post-dinner, we were presented with Sweet Treats in a very cute box that looked like a fairytale book. Inside, there were Kaya Soy Bonbons, Yuzu Jube, and Rojak Flower Macarons. Playful local flavours rounded off the evening, and we finished everything even though we were stuffed!

The Degustation Dinner Menu is priced at $178++ per person, a showcase of Chef Peter's artistry and the season's finest produce. It takes diners through a repertoire of classic, harmonious flavours that delight the palate, executed with seasonal ingredients and skilful technique. However, Chef Peter also introduces a few more unique and innovative items to surprise and intrigue diners, adding an element of creativity to the dining experience — a delightful dinner that I will remember.

Wine lovers will also be pleased to know that FLUTES's wine list has been expanded to include a selection of sustainable and biodynamic wines. The wine list spans over 300 excellent wines and supports environmentally responsible vineyards. With a knowledgeable in-house sommelier, guests can be assured of a perfect wine pairing to complete the dining experience.

Bedrock Origin @ Oasia Resort Sentosa - The Great Beef & Reef Series Returns For the 3rd Edition With New Zealand Culinary Voyage

Bedrock Origin's The Great Beef & Reef Series has recently launched its 3rd edition for 2023 - New Zealand Culinary Voyage. From 2 August to 2 November 2023 (Sundays to Thursdays), this edition presents a 6-Course Dinner Tasting Menu (from $168++ per person) - with an option to include a curated 4-wine pairing (add $68++) with a selection from Cloudy Bay.

Cold Serve NZ Oysters 4.5/5

Our evening started with fresh Cold Serve NZ Oysters served in 2 variations - one waking up the senses with chilli-lime granita and lime caviar, the other that whets the appetite with ikura. To complement the brininess of the oysters, this course is paired with the Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc for its bright acidity.

Confit Ora King Salmon 4.5/5

The next course, Confit Ora King Salmon served with wasabi cream, showcasing the New Zealand King Salmon from Ora King, which is prized for its buttery texture and slightly sweet flavour. After curing for up to two days, the salmon is confit with fragrant aromatics. What is also notable is the thin sheet of nori that was placed delicately atop the fish, mimicking the appearance of the salmon skin! The wasabi cream not only brought the elements together, but it also enriched the fish's already luscious texture of the fish and imparted a hint of the sharp herbaceousness that cut the richness of the dish. There is an option to add on Oscietra caviar for an additional $45++. Balancing the complexity of this dish is the Cloudy Bay Te Koko, which possesses citrus and savoury notes of soft woodsmoke on the nose and mellow oak notes on the palate.

Braised Paua Abalone 4.8/5

Third course, which is my favourite dish on the menu, is the Braised Paua Abalone featuring New Zealand Black Wild Paua Abalone. It is braised in kombu and sake to enhance its tender texture and bring out its sweetness. What made this dish exceptional was the accompanying applewood-smoked cauliflower and leek cream that added a dimension to the dish, completing the experience with its contrasting creamy texture and tantalising umami flavour. The wine pairing for this dish is Cloudy Bay Chardonnay, which entices with white peach and ripe citrus notes.

Pan-seared South Island Lamb Rump 3/5

The fourth course features a pan-seared South Island Lamb Rump, carefully selected from Lumina Farms. Raised in a natural, free-range environment on specially cultivated chicory herb pastures, the lambs are known for their superb marbling and unique flavour. The lamb is sous vide for three hours before being pan-seared and finished on the applewood fire grill. It was incredibly tender with very pronounced marbling, delivering a much stronger and wilder flavour. The accompanying beluga lentils with green olives were delicious. Simmered in sundried tomato sauce, every spoonful packed a punch. The chosen wine for pairing is the aromatic Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir.

Beef-Fat Aged NZ Wagyu Striploin 3.8/5

The final course is the Beef-Fat Aged NZ Wagyu Striploin, featuring the 100% grass-fed F1/F2 Wagyu from Hastings, New Zealand. Dry-aged for 21 days, the 150g striploin is steeped in beef fat before grilling over applewood to concentrate the flavour and create a crust. While the aged beef delivered the expected flavours, the experience was slightly let down by the challenge of slicing the steak due to its notably thick cut. The hearty house-made eggplant parmigiana served alongside was a standout in its own rights with its cheesy top crust and layers of well-seasoned tender eggplants. To match the rich flavours of the dish, an intense Cloudy Bay Te Wahi is chosen for its dense tannins and vibrant freshness.

Pavlova 4/5

Completing the New Zealand Culinary Voyage is Pavlova, a national dessert often enjoyed on special occasions. Vibrant with tangy lemon custard, tart raspberry compote, and fresh berries, the well-executed meringue was the perfect vehicle to harmonise the beautiful flavours.

3 August to 2 November 2023:
6-Course Dinner Tasting Menu, $168++ per person
6-Course Dinner Tasting Menu with Oscietra Caviar, add $45++ per person
Wine Pairing Top-Up, $68++ per person
Available Sunday to Thursday for dine-in reservations made from 6pm to 8.30pm (last seating)

Salt & Palm @ Joo Chiat - Neighbourhood Resto-Bar Serving Modern Flavours Of East Indies

Having won over Sydney, Australia, Salt & Palm has now opened in the colourful neighbourhood of Joo Chiat, bringing its fun new take on the flavours of the East Indies to our shore. Helmed by Executive Chef Natasya Soetantyo, she seeks to change the perception and introduce the diversity of Indonesian cuisine as a whole archipelago through contemporary cooking techniques using traditional spices, recreating the complex flavours and dishes in a modern way.

Fresh Oyster 4/5

We kickstarted our meals with a couple of starters, beginning with the Fresh Oyster ($28 for 3 pc). The freshly shucked Amelie oysters from Marennes-Oleron, France, can be paired with either a choice of lime wedges or tomato tamarind and basil kemangi pandan oil.

Hokkaido Scallop 4/5

Next is the Hokkaido Scallop ($22), lightly torched and paired with tempe chips, fried garlic, chilli peanut lime, sweet soy and lemon basil herbs. The combination gives a glimpse of Chef Natasya's philosophy of incorporating her Indonesian heritage into her cooking.

Fish Cake 4/5

The Balinese-style Fish Cake ($12 for 2pc), made from minced fish and a blend of traditional spices, is topped with chilli lemongrass shallot salsa which enlivens the flavour. The accompanying chicken skin tuille provides that extra textural enjoyment.

Potato Cake 3.5/5

There are also several Vegan dishes on the menu, such as the Potato Cake ($12 for 2pc). The potato cake is topped with vegan mayo and vegan caviar to finish. The combination and flavour are straightforward, which didn't come with any significant surprises.

Prawn Bisque Pasta 4/5

Moving to the mains, we had the Prawn Bisque Pasta ($32), inspired by Palembang Mie Celor, a seafood noodle in coconut broth. The interpretation, which comes with king prawns, south sumatran prawn bisque, onsen egg, beansprouts, tobiko and chives, is bursting with the sweetness of the sea.

Beef Short Ribs 3.8/5

Australian grain-fed beef is used for the Beef Short Ribs ($52). I wish the texture could be more tender, but the rendang sauce is fragranced with kaffir lime leaf, cinnamon, chilli, and candlenut. The flavour is more savoury than sweet, leaning more towards the Indonesian style instead of the sweeter Malaysian style.

Porchetta 4.5/5

The Porchetta ($32) at Salt & Palm is its version of Balinese Babi Guling. The pork belly is marinated in a unique Balinese spice blend but cooked in Italian style. The result is succulent with crispy crackling, paired with chilli lemongrass salsa for a lifted enjoyment. This is one of my favourite dishes for the night.

Mushroom Rendang 4.5/5

Another beautiful dish on the menu is the Mushroom Rendang ($30). The medley of mushrooms and baby potatoes is simmered in a housemade rendang sauce over long hours and topped with toasted coconut flakes for texture contrast.

Pandan Coconut Creme Brulee 2.8/5

We wrapped up our dinner with the Pandan Coconut Creme Brulee ($15) and Pavlova ($18) for dessert. The Pandan Coconut Creme Brulee is egg and dairy free, topped with jackfruit and berries. There was even young coconut filling in the custard. However, I wouldn't say I liked the texture of the creme brulee. It lacked that smooth, creamy texture without the use of egg and dairy.

Pavlova 4.2/5

Compared to the creme brulee, I preferred the Pavlova ($18) for its brighter flavours. The plant-based meringue with plant-based mango and passionfruit cream is further embellished with fresh mango, blueberry, grilled peach and coconut flakes.

Note: This is an invited tasting.

Fat Prince @ Peck Seah Street - A Fresh, New Season At Fat Prince

Fat Prince, which has been around for five years, welcomes the new Chef de Cuisine, Simon Bell, giving the menu a refreshed take of Modern Middle Eastern cuisine. Chef Simon marries his contemporary Australian background with Middle Eastern cuisine, breathing new life and flavour to the venue.

Chilled Oysters 4/5

Served in a pair is the Chilled Oysters ($16++). The Hyogo Oysters are topped with saffron-infused charred orange juice, coriander cress, and charred orange segments. The pairing is Chef Simon's memories of his childhood flavours of sweet orange, salty sea air and grassy meadows.

Cannellini Bean Hummus 4.2/5

Turkish Pide 4.5/5

Instead of the usual chickpea hummus, Chef Simon uses the Cannellini Bean Hummus ($14++), which has a creamier texture. It is then topped with muhammara, lime zest and pita croutons, brightening the flavours. Turkey pide is served on the side to scoop up the delicious hummus.

Pit Smoked Aubergine 4/5

Next, we have the Pit Smoked Aubergine ($19++). I could smell the smokiness even from a distance when served. The smoky, smooth aubergine sat on a bed of yoghurt tahini and finished with fresh harissa in the ingredients' natural form rather than the traditional paste. The pairing helps to lift and lighten the experience.

Warm Mud Crab 4.8/5

The Warm Mud Crab ($29++) is served in a crab shell with Turkish pide. The hand-picked crab meat is lightly seasoned with shallots, chives, parsley, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt, enhancing the sweetness of the crab. There is a layer of hazelnut tarator at the base of the crab shell too. Give it a good mix and have it together with the Turkish pide.

Adana Kebab Tartare 2.0 4.2/5

The Adana Kebab Tartare 2.0 ($19++) is a beautiful iteration to capture the flavour of adana kebab in tartare form. The wagyu is tossed with herbs, lemon juice, Turkish peppers and shallots for freshness and heat. At the same time, the charcoal oil lends the smokiness. Diners can enjoy the wagyu tartare together with the buttermilk and rye crackers.

Pit Smoked Pork Ribeye 4.2/5

I decided to have the Pit Smoked Pork Ribeye ($31++ per 100g) as the mains. The smoky and tender pork ribeye has the right ratio of fats and lean meat. It is paired with black garlic sauce and crunch fresh cabbage slaw to cut the richness. It also comes with warm pita, which you can have the smoked pork ribeye like a wrap.

Wild Mushroom 4.2/5

The Wild Mushroom ($18++) is ideal with the mains. The oyster mushrooms are grilled, then tossed with balsamic, garlic, and thyme, finished with gremolata.

Rosewater Pavlova 4/5

We started with the Rosewater Pavlova ($15++) for desserts. It is a sweet and light dessert that brings Chef Simon's Christmas day memories back home in Adelaide. It can also be served as a palate cleanser.

Mascarpone Knafeh 4.2/5

The Mascarpone Knafeh ($15++) dessert is served warm. The traditional Middle Eastern dessert comes in layers of kataifi, syrup and nuts. The culinary team even incorporated coconut, pandan and gula melaka, giving the traditional dessert a local take which I enjoyed a lot.

It is my first time visiting Fat Prince. Unlike the typical Middle Eastern cuisine, Chef Simon has given them vibrancy, redefining modern Middle Eastern cuisine.
