Edge @ Pan Pacific Singapore - Dive into ‘A Sea of Flavours’, an Indulgent Seafood Dinner Buffet Experience

Pan Pacific Singapore’s award-winning buffet restaurant, Edge, invites diners to embark on a seafood-filled culinary journey with “A Sea of Flavours”, an exclusive dinner buffet available from Fridays to Sundays, from 15 May to 21 June 2026. Curated by Executive Chef Andy Oh and his culinary team, the experience showcases an impressive selection of premium seafood, ranging from fresh seafood on ice and succulent crab creations to charcoal-grilled favourites and international specialities, making it a feast that seafood lovers will not want to miss.

The experience begins at the Seafood on Ice station, where an abundant selection of Sustainable Boston Lobster, Snow Crab, Tiger Prawn, Pacific Clam, Sea Whelk, Half Shell Scallop, Sea Conch, Black Mussel and Crawfish awaits. There is also a Japanese section featuring Norwegian Salmon, Maguro and Tako sashimi, alongside an assortment of Sushi and Maki served with wasabi, Japanese gari and shoyu.

Another highlight is the Steamed Oyster station, where plump and juicy oysters are steamed to order and served with garlic sauce and Thai Nam Jim. They were exceptionally fresh and flavourful - so much so that I found myself returning for more than a dozen throughout the evening.

For those who prefer lighter seafood preparations, the Cantonese-style Steamed Fish is not to be missed. Delicately cooked to preserve its natural sweetness and tenderness, it offers a comforting contrast to some of the richer dishes across the buffet.

Crab lovers will be thoroughly spoiled with multiple preparations available throughout the spread. The Stir-fried White Pepper Crab with Scallion delivers a fragrant, peppery kick. At the same time, the Salt-baked Mud Crab, served with chilli sauce and mantou, offers a satisfying combination of sweet crab meat and savoury accompaniments. Equally enjoyable is the Creamy Salted Egg Yolk Crab, coated in a rich and velvety sauce that clings beautifully to every piece.

Moving on to the carving station, the 24-hour Slow Roasted Whole Veal Leg takes centre stage. Slow-cooked to achieve remarkable tenderness, the veal remains juicy and flavourful, pairing wonderfully with the accompanying Yorkshire pudding. Other highlights at the station include succulent Lamb Chops and crispy Pork Knuckle, both equally tempting for meat lovers.

The Japanese Street Food Station offers another noteworthy item: Mayura Station Chocolate-fed Wagyu Beef, served with ponzu and braised leek. The wagyu boasts excellent marbling and a rich, beefy flavour, while the ponzu provides a refreshing, citrusy lift that balances the meat’s richness.

At the Chinese Roast Meats section, diners can enjoy Charcoal-grilled Ibérico Pork Char Siew served with fluffy lotus buns. The char siew is beautifully caramelised with a good balance of sweetness and smokiness. Also available are crispy Roasted Pork Belly and flavourful Roasted Duck, making this station a favourite among fans of traditional Cantonese roasts.

For local comfort food lovers, Edge’s Signature Singapore Laksa remains a must-order. The rich coconut-based broth is packed with flavour and topped with locally farmed Tiger Prawn, quail egg, fish cake, and bean sprouts. The combination delivers all the familiar flavours of a good laksa, elevated with quality ingredients.

Be sure to save room for dessert, as the spread is just as impressive as the savoury offerings. Signature creations include Edge’s Signature Hazelnut Royaltine and Edge’s Signature Durian Pandan Cake, alongside favourites such as Black Sesame Chocolate Cake, White Chocolate Orange Cake and Portuguese Egg Tarts. Hot desserts like Bread Butter Pudding, Snow Fungus with Nashi Pear and Goji Berry Soup, Durian Pengat and Classic Crème Brûlée provide comforting options. At the same time, Honey Jelly with Snow Bird’s Nest and Aloe Vera offers a lighter finish. Traditional sweets such as Assorted Nyonya Kueh and Kueh Lapis are also available. The Giant Chocolate Fountain, accompanied by assorted condiments, adds a touch of fun. There is also a selection of ice creams, including Banana Passion Fruit Sorbet and Red Bean Potong, to complete the indulgent finale.

YeYak Korean Restaurant @ Neil Road - Native Korean Chef with Receipes Rooted in Tradition From Her Grandmother

YeYak, which means “reservation” in Korean, has relocated from Keppel Road to Neil Road, where it has been quietly building a following over the past year. The kitchen is helmed by a native Korean chef, while the front-of-house is managed by her Singaporean husband. Together, bringing a warm, personal touch to the dining experience. Many of the recipes are rooted in tradition, passed down from her grandmother.

The complimentary banchan here comes in three varieties - kimchi, cucumber and potato salad, served free-flow. A pleasant surprise is the japchae, which is served once at no additional charge, unlike many other restaurants. Fragrant with sesame oil, it’s incredibly moreish and hard to stop at just one serving.

Braised Short Ribs LA Galbi 4.8/5

We were recommended the LULA Set ($160), ideal for 3–4 diners. A highlight of the set is the Braised Short Ribs LA Galbi, featuring exceptionally tender beef slow-cooked for nearly 48 hours. The tteokbokki, soaked in the rich, slightly sweet broth, complements the dish beautifully. Interestingly, their version uses miltteok (flour-based rice cakes) instead of the usual rice variety, resulting in a softer, less chewy texture.

Original Spicy Stir-Fried Dakgalbi 3.8/5

Also included in the set is the Original Spicy Stir-Fried Dakgalbi, served bubbling hot with a generous mix of ingredients, including tteokbokki, cabbage, carrots, onions, and tender chicken pieces. The spice level is fairly mild, which is approachable for most, but we found ourselves wishing for a bit more heat and depth. It pairs well with rice, though a bolder flavour profile would further elevate the dish.

Deep Fried Pork Belly 5/5

The Deep Fried Pork Belly is a standout. Served with their signature “magic sauce,” garlic, marinated baby tomatoes, shiso leaves and lettuce wraps, it delivers on both texture and flavour. The pork is crisp on the outside, juicy within and notably free of any unpleasant porky aftertaste. That is such a detail we truly appreciated. Paired with the sauce, this dish is incredibly satisfying and easily one of our favourites.

Bacon Corn Cheese Pancake 4/5

The final item in the set is the Bacon Corn Cheese Pancake, generously layered with melted cheese. While it leans more indulgent than traditional, it’s a must-try for cheese lovers. The sweetness of the corn helps balance the richness of the cheese and bacon. For the best experience, enjoy it hot while the cheese is still perfectly melted.

YeYak Fish Cake Soup 4/5

We also added the YeYak Fish Cake Soup ($18 for 4 sticks), charmingly served in a teapot. While the fish cakes themselves are familiar, it’s the broth that truly shines - light, comforting and especially welcome between heavier dishes. A spray bottle of homemade soy sauce is provided, allowing you to customise the flavour to your liking.

Soy Sauce Marinated Crab 4/5

Another add-on we tried was the Soy Sauce Marinated Crab ($32 for 1, $56 for 2, $72 for 3), served with rice topped with seaweed and spring onions. Unlike other versions that can be overly salty, the marinade here leans towards a balanced sweet-savoury profile, making it more approachable. That said, this dish remains an acquired taste and may not appeal to everyone.

Honey Makgeolli 4.5/5

Sunyang Soju 4.5/5

No Korean meal is complete without drinks. We tried the Honey Makgeolli ($35) and Sunyang Soju ($20), both of which impressed us. The makgeolli, served in a charming pot with a ladle, carries a subtle honeyed fragrance, while the soju is smooth and slightly sweet. Both pair wonderfully with the bold flavours of the dishes.

Looking through their à la carte menu, we appreciate the flexibility in portion sizes, which cater to different group sizes, including solo diners.

The space itself is thoughtfully designed, evoking the charm of traditional Korean hanok village homes with a modern touch. There are also floor seating options that offer a more authentic dining experience, and the walls are adorned with charming artwork by the chef-owner.

What stood out to us during our visit was learning that many of the sauces used across the dishes are made in-house by the chef herself, adding a deeply personal and authentic touch to the overall experience. There are also plans to retail these sauces in the future, which is something to look forward to.

YeYak delivers not just on food, but on atmosphere and storytelling. We will definitely be back.

Seoul & So @ National Gallery - Brings Contemporary Korean BBQ to National Gallery Singapore with Value Lunch Sets

Seoul & So debuts at National Gallery Singapore, introducing a fresh Korean barbecue concept set within one of the city’s most iconic cultural spaces. Located on Level 5, the restaurant offers a unique dining experience where guests can enjoy grilled premium meats while overlooking the Ng Teng Fong Roof Garden Gallery installations, blending art, architecture, and cuisine into a single immersive setting.

Created by the award-winning team behind Seoul Restaurant (Conrad Singapore Orchard), Seoul & So is the Rhee siblings’ modern take on Korean barbecue. While grounded in authentic Korean flavours and traditional techniques, the concept embraces a livelier, more contemporary approach, offering both à la carte dishes and curated tasting menus designed for sharing.

I visited on a weekday for lunch and was particularly drawn to their wallet-friendly 4-Course Lunch Sets. Priced at $45 for Set A (Beef) and $35 for Set B (Pork), each set comprises an Appetiser, Main, Post-Main, and Dessert. With two of us dining, we opted to try both sets for a more comprehensive experience.

The meal began with an assortment of Banchan, Korea’s signature side dishes. The spread offered a delightful variety of flavours and textures — from tangy pickles to savoury bites — thoughtfully prepared to complement the grilled meats that followed.

For the mains, Lunch Set A offers a choice between USDA Prime Short Ribs or Rib Fingers (Aus Wagyu 6/7), while Set B features Jeju Pork Belly or Iberico Pork Collar, each portion at 150g.

Rib Fingers (AUS Wagyu 6/7) 4/5

We had the Rib Fingers (Aus Wagyu 6/7), a premium cut sourced from between the rib bones. Known for its rich marbling and intense beefy flavour, this cut delivers a deeply satisfying bite. As it grills, the fat renders beautifully, creating a lightly charred exterior while keeping the interior juicy. The presence of natural tendons adds a slight chew, giving the meat a robust texture that enhances its overall appeal.

Jeju Pork Belly 4.2/5

The Jeju Pork Belly was equally noteworthy. Imported from Jeju Island, the cut stood out for its clean, natural sweetness and balanced fat content. Grilled to a gentle crisp on the outside, the pork retained a tender, juicy centre without feeling overly greasy. The rendered fat imparted a buttery richness that coated the palate, elevating each bite with a luxurious mouthfeel.

Mul Naengmyeon 4.2/5

For the Post-Main course, diners can choose from Kimchi Jjigae, Doenjang Jjigae, Mul Naengmyeon, or Naeng Kalguksu. We selected the Mul Naengmyeon and Kimchi Jjigae for contrast.

The Mul Naengmyeon was a refreshing interlude. Served in an icy, clear beef broth, the dish delivered a clean, subtly tangy flavour with a hint of sweetness. The buckwheat noodles were springy and pleasantly chewy, complemented by slices of cold beef, crisp cucumbers, and pickled radish. It was light, cooling, and especially satisfying after the richness of the barbecue.

In contrast, the Kimchi Jjigae offered a comforting depth of flavour. The stew leaned towards a balanced, hearty profile rather than an overly sour or fiery one. Well-aged kimchi had softened beautifully, infusing the broth with richness, while tender pork and silky tofu added substance to the dish.

The meal concluded with a simple dessert of ice cream paired with coffee or tea — a light and pleasant finish to the multi-course lunch.

Kimchi Jjigae 4/5

Seoul & So’s 4-Course Lunch Sets impress with both value and quality, making it an accessible way to enjoy premium Korean barbecue in a refined setting. Situated within the National Gallery, the restaurant offers more than just a meal — it delivers a dining experience that seamlessly weaves together culture, flavour, and contemporary flair.
