The Drunken Chef Private Dining - Affordable Home Private Dining with Comforting Chinese Classics

TheDrunkenChef32

The Drunken Chef by Sherine Chua is one of the newest additions to the home private dining scene, offering a Chinese cuisine menu at $98 per pax, making it one of the most affordable options currently available. The experience focuses on comforting, well-executed dishes that feel familiar yet thoughtfully prepared, making it ideal for intimate gatherings and family-style celebrations.

TheDrunkenChef39

We started with the Marinated Tomatoes, a refreshing opener that delivered a pleasant balance of sweetness and tanginess. Light and appetising, it gently whetted our appetite and set the tone nicely for the upcoming feast.

TheDrunkenChef42
Braised Beef Shin & Tripe 4.5/5

One of the highlights was the Braised Beef Shin & Tripe. Both components were well infused with the rich braising sauce. The beef shin was tender and flavourful, while the tripe retained a delightful chewy bite. A gentle hint of spiciness helped lift the overall flavour profile, making this a satisfying and robust dish to start the meal.

TheDrunkenChef5
Drunken Chicken 4/5

The Drunken Chicken was tender and well-cooked, though it felt slightly restrained in terms of the Chinese wine aroma and flavour. A more generous hand with the alcohol could have elevated the dish further, giving it the signature fragrance that drunken chicken lovers would expect.

TheDrunkenChef9
Kam Heong Clams 5/5

The Kam Heong Clams stood out with their bold aromatics. The sweet and juicy clams were beautifully coated in a fragrant, punchy sauce that paired exceptionally well with rice. The sauce was so addictive that it was impossible not to drizzle it generously over our bowls, savouring every last drop.

TheDrunkenChef15
Sio Bak 4.8/5

A clear crowd favourite at the table was the Sio Bak. It had been a while since I encountered this style of roast pork, featuring an addictive, crispy, almost biscuity skin. It immediately brought to mind the roasting technique of 88 Hong Kong Roast Meat Specialist, delivering both nostalgia and satisfaction with every bite.

TheDrunkenChef18
Cai Poh Steamed Snapper 4.5/5

The Cai Poh Steamed Snapper was simply and skilfully executed. Steamed to perfection, the fish remained moist and tender, while the preserved radish and soy sauce enhanced and highlighted the natural sweetness of the fish meat without overpowering it.

TheDrunkenChef21
Kai Shui Bai Cai 4.2/5

At first glance, the Kai Shui Bai Cai may look humble and unassuming, but simple dishes often require the most finesse. This was done excellently — clean, light, and delicious, allowing the vegetable's natural sweetness to shine through.

TheDrunkenChef25
Seafood Pao Fan 4.5/5

The undeniable highlight of the dinner was the Seafood Pao Fan. Even before it arrived at the table, the rich crustacean aroma wafted out from the kitchen. Once served, the fragrance intensified, drawing everyone in. The robust seafood flavours paired with fluffy rice created a dish that was both hearty and deeply comforting, making it a memorable centrepiece of the meal.

TheDrunkenChef36
Gui Hua Gao 4.2/5

To end on a sweet note, we were served Gui Hua Gao (Osmanthus Jelly). The gentle sweetness and floral fragrance of osmanthus were complemented by crunchy chestnuts and wolfberries, offering a light yet satisfying conclusion to the meal.

Overall, The Drunken Chef by Sherine Chua delivers a value-driven home private dining experience with comforting Chinese dishes that resonate with warmth and familiarity. At $98 per pax, it presents an accessible entry point into the private dining scene, especially for those seeking honest flavours and a hearty communal dining experience.

Sheraton Towers Singapore - Festive Celebrations At The Dining Room

IMG_9038

For this festive season, Sheraton Towers Singapore presents an extravagant buffet spread and a selection of festive takeaways featuring beloved holiday classics at The Dining Room.

IMG_8914

Staying true to tradition, the symbolic Oven-roasted Christmas Turkey is a classic done right - golden-brown skin with succulent, tender meat.

IMG_8910
BBQ Glazed Wagyu Rump

IMG_8987
Citrus Tamarind-Glazed Semi Bone-in Gammon Ham

You can also enjoy the BBQ Glazed Wagyu Rump, rich and flavourful, and the Citrus Tamarind-Glazed Semi Bone-in Gammon Ham, served with a bright pineapple sauce that lifts the overall profile.

IMG_8920
Spicy Turmeric Coconut Turkey

For festive takeaways, The Dining Room introduces a bolder reinterpretation of the classic turkey: the Spicy Turmeric Coconut Turkey ($208). Inspired by traditional Singapore Malay flavours, it is served with tomato basmati rice, green bean kerabu, and mung bean crackers. Infused with turmeric, bird’s eye chilli, and rich coconut milk, it offers warm, familiar notes that will add depth and colour to your festive table.

IMG_8930
Seafood on Ice

IMG_9005
Sushi and Sashimi

The buffet also showcases a lavish Seafood on Ice selection, along with Sushi and Sashimi.

IMG_8926
Cheese and Charcuterie Counter

IMG_8928

The Cheese and Charcuterie Counter is fully stocked with an impressive variety of cheeses, condiments, and artisanal charcuterie. The Salad Bar is equally delightful, offering beautifully plated salads alongside a vibrant selection of fresh greens.

IMG_8934
Parmesan Herb-crusted Maine Lobster

IMG_8998

An array of premium hot dishes, such as Parmesan Herb-crusted Maine Lobster, is complemented by a variety of Chinese and Asian specialities.

IMG_9003

To elevate the festive atmosphere, an outdoor BBQ station adds smoky, crowd-pleasing flavours to the experience.

IMG_9008
Baked Brie En Croûte

One of my favourites was definitely the Baked Brie En Croûte. Prepared à la minute, the warm, oozy brie has a lightly caramelised, flaky exterior and is served atop crusty toast. Paired generously with honey and nuts, it was wonderfully decadent.

IMG_8957
Spiced Pumpkin Meringue Tart

IMG_8955
White Forest

Desserts were incredible. Classics such as Panettone, Almond Stollen, and Christmas Fruit Cake were beautifully executed, alongside more creative additions like the Spiced Pumpkin Meringue Tart and White Forest, a new creation featuring vanilla sponge and griottines cherries. Of course, no festive spread would be complete without a classic logcake, and their Crunchy Chocolate Praline Logcake proved to be a definite crowd-pleaser.
