Mosella @ Pan Pacific Orchard - From Tapas to Josper Grill: New À La Carte Menu Celebrates Communal Dining

Mosella at Pan Pacific Orchard refreshes its dining concept with a vibrant new à la carte menu, shifting away from structured multi-course formats to embrace the convivial spirit of Mediterranean communal dining. Designed for both casual lunches and lively evening gatherings, the menu offers a flexible mix of tapas, hearty mains, and grill-centric showstoppers, all thoughtfully portioned to suit different occasions. By day, diners can graze on lighter plates and carb-forward staples, while dinner spotlights the Josper grill — the heart of the open kitchen — where flame-kissed meats and seafood take centre stage.

Beetroot & Burrata 4/5

The Beetroot & Burrata ($12 Lunch/ $16 Dinner) is an elegant opener, pairing smoky, creamy burrata with earthy beetroot. Accents of pickled shallots, baby arugula, and candied walnuts lend both brightness and texture, while a drizzle of Pedro Ximenez sherry dressing ties everything together with a gentle sweetness.

Pan Con Tomate 4/5

Equally satisfying in its simplicity is the Pan Con Tomate ($8 Lunch/ $11 Dinner). Served on crisp, airy cristal bread, the grated datterini tomatoes are fresh and vibrant, lifted by good-quality extra virgin olive oil. It’s a classic done right — light, refreshing, and highly addictive.

Potatas Bravas 3.8/5

The Potatas Bravas ($9 Lunch/ $14 Dinner) offers a more inventive take, featuring golden cubes of potato millefeuille. Crisp on the outside and fluffy within, they are paired with smoky mojo picón, garlic aioli, and finished with cured egg yolk shavings for an umami-rich touch.

Mosella Caesar Salad 3.5/5

For something heartier, the Mosella Caesar Salad ($10 Lunch/ $$19 Dinner) brings together baby gem lettuce, aged Manchego, and savoury Iberico ham. The boquerones Caesar dressing adds a subtle briny depth, while almonds and croutons contribute crunch, making it both refreshing and satisfying.

Chargrilled Octopus 3.5/5

The Chargrilled Octopus ($19 Lunch/ $36 Dinner) impresses with its tender texture and smoky char. Served atop a rustic white bean and potato stew with chorizo, each bite is layered with richness, further enhanced by saffron aioli and delicate shavings of bluefin bottarga.

Gambas Al Ajillo 4/5

A perennial favourite, the Gambas Al Ajillo ($9 Lunch/ $14 Dinner) delivers bold, comforting flavours. Plump king prawns are sautéed in aromatic garlic and chilli oil, making it perfect for mopping up with bread.

Paella Chorizo 3.8/5

Paella Mariscos 4/5

The paellas here are hearty and well-executed. The Paella Chorizo ($29 Lunch/ $56 Dinner) leans on robust, meaty flavours, combining diced chorizo, grilled chicken breast, and piquillo peppers in a savoury chicken stock base. Meanwhile, the Paella Mariscos ($28 Lunch/ $52 Dinner) showcases the ocean’s bounty, with saffron-infused Bomba rice cooked in shellfish stock, studded with calamari and prawns, and finished with mussels and king prawns for a deeply satisfying seafood profile.

Half Spatchcock Chicken 4/5

From the Josper grill, the Half Spatchcock Chicken ($38) stands out for its juicy, tender meat and smoky aroma. Paired with romesco, black garlic, and a hint of piment d’Espelette, it’s a well-balanced dish with both depth and vibrancy.

Whole Branzino 4.2/5

The Whole Branzino ($62) is another highlight. This wild-caught European seabass arrives beautifully roasted, its skin crisp and lightly charred, while the flesh remains moist and flaky. Accompaniments of confit tomatoes, burnt citrus, and thyme enhance its natural sweetness.

Galician Bone-in Striploin 4.2/5

For meat lovers, the Galician Bone-In Striploin ($158) is a true showstopper. This 700g Rubia Gallega cut boasts a deep, beefy flavour and satisfying chew, cooked to a perfect medium-rare and complemented by a rich porcini and beef glace.

Cochinillo Asado 4.2/5

A must-try for sharing is the Cochinillo Asado ($78). This 1.2kg quarter suckling pig undergoes an intensive preparation process before being roasted to achieve its signature crackling skin. Beneath the crisp exterior lies tender, flavourful meat, paired with apple and Calvados purée and anise pork jus for a well-rounded finish.

Cacao 4.2/5

Ending on a sweet note, the Cacao ($18) is indulgence at its finest, featuring a luscious 68% Nyangbo chocolate crèmeux paired with burnt milk gelato for a balance of richness and depth.

Strawberry & Sherry 4.2/5

The Strawberry & Sherry ($12 Lunch/ $18 Dinner) offers a lighter contrast, with a soft Basque butter cake topped with strawberry gelée and finished tableside with warm sherry cream.

Churro Rosette 4.2/5

For something playful, the Churro Rosette ($11 Lunch/ $16 Dinner) delights with its spiral form — crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and best enjoyed dipped in smoked vanilla dulce sauce.

Leche Frita 4.2/5

Oliva 3.8/5

Spanish Rice Pudding 4/5

Other noteworthy options include the nostalgic Leche Frita ($9), the citrusy Oliva ($9 Lunch/ $16 Dinner) olive oil cake, and the comforting Spanish Rice Pudding ($8) with brown butter gelato and puffed rice crunch.

With its refreshed à la carte concept, Mosella successfully captures the essence of Mediterranean dining — relaxed, generous, and centred around sharing. Whether you’re dropping by for a light lunch or gathering friends for a hearty grilled feast, the versatile menu offers something for every occasion. Combined with the theatre of the Josper grill and thoughtfully crafted dishes, Mosella makes a compelling destination for both casual meet-ups and celebratory meals.

Bedrock Origin @ Oasia Resort Sentosa - New Sunday Bottomless Brunch, The Harvest Table

Bedrock Origin at Oasia Resort Sentosa has just launched a hearty new Sunday brunch that's well worth getting out of bed for. Aptly named "The Harvest Table – Land and Sea", this bottomless brunch offers a delightful communal dining experience, served in the peaceful, resort-style setting of Sentosa.

Held every Sunday from 12pm to 3.30pm (last order at 3pm), The Harvest Table – Land and Sea brunch (4.2/5) is priced at $78++ per person and offers unlimited servings of a multi-course feast. A good number of dishes are served à la minute, where each dish is cooked to order. This ensures that the food arrives hot and fresh, reducing the food waste common in buffet-style dining. It is a nice option for family gatherings, as children aged 6 and under dine for free, while those aged 7 to 12 enjoy the full experience for $28++.

Flatbread with Roasted Garlic & Butter

Smoked Tomato Soup, Truffle Mushroom Soup, Burrata & Tomato Salad

Grilled Tiger Prawns

Begin your brunch experience with an enticing array of starters. Tear into warm, freshly baked Flatbread served with aromatic Roasted Garlic and Butter, alongside comforting options such as Bedrock's Smoked Tomato Soup and Truffle Mushroom Soup. Salad options include the Chargrilled Caesar Salad, Burrata with Tomato, Grilled Tiger Prawns and Jamon. I loved the creamy freshness of the burrata salad and had multiple servings!

Bedrock Mac 'N' Cheese

Beef Fat Fried Rice

Truffle Mashed Potatoes

Complement your meal with a variety of tasty side dishes, served tableside from a roving trolley. Highlights include Bedrock's indulgent Mac 'N' Cheese, Silky Truffle Mashed Potatoes, and the flavourful Beef Fat Fried Rice. I would've happily had a few more bowls if I weren't saving stomach space for the mains.

Sauteed Mushrooms

Woodfire Grilled Chilli Corn

Chargrilled Spicy Brussels Sprouts

Black Truffle Fries

For lighter options, Sautéed Mushrooms, Chargrilled Spicy Brussels Sprouts, and Woodfire Grilled Chilli Corn are available. The Truffle Fries, served hot and crispy, were also great. While it's tempting to fill up on these yummy sides, be sure to save room for the meat and seafood dishes.

Kombu Cured Tomahawk

French Black Pork Rack

Roasted Spatchcock Chicken

The Kombu-cured Tomahawk Steak leads the main course selection, though it might be too rare for some. Other meat options include a slow-cooked Lamb Shoulder, a French Black Pork Rack, and Roasted Spatchcock Chicken, which are all decent, hearty choices. Providing a few more sauces or hot gravy to go with the meat would have made it even better!

Pan-fried Barramundi Fillet

Deep-fried Fish Collar

Clams with White Wine

On the seafood side, there’s Pan-fried Barramundi Fillet, Deep-fried Fish Collar, and the chef’s selection, which during my visit featured a bowl of fresh Clams in White Wine Sauce. I enjoyed all three, but the fish collar stood out the most, with its crispy skin and tender, soft flesh inside.

Chilli Crab Linguine

There are also two pasta options - Carbonara and Chilli Crab Linguine. I tried the chilli crab linguine, but found the sauce lacking. There are also some teething issues with the service — my orders were missed a few times, and we had to gently remind the staff. Fortunately, the long brunch hours meant there was no need to rush.

Apple Crumble

We wrapped our brunch on a sweet note with Bedrock's signature Apple Crumble, served warm and perfectly spiced, complemented by a scoop of ice cream. It's sure to be a hit with both adults and children alike.

Lemon Cake

A cake trolley adds a charming touch, offering a selection of favourites like Chocolate, Banana, Lemon, and Carrot Cake. Unfortunately, the chocolate cake ran out early in the service, so I didn't try it. However, the lemon and carrot cake I tried was not bad.

Carrot Cake

For drinks, free-flow alcohol is available for just $28++. The offerings include Carlsberg Smooth Draught, Sapporo Premium, and classic cocktails like Mimosa and Bellini. Wine enthusiasts can enjoy Riondo Sparkling Rosé and selections from Casas del Toqui Single Estate: a Sauvignon Blanc and a Merlot.

The non-alcoholic beverage selection is priced at $10++. It offers a variety of refreshing options, such as Cranberry Juice, Pink Grapefruit Juice, Orange Juice, Coke, Coke Zero, Root Beer, Sprite, and Ginger Ale.

Banana Cake

Overall, The Harvest Table — Land and Sea was a satisfying and relaxed weekend brunch experience. The dishes were generally well-executed, and it is best enjoyed with a group so that you can try everything on the menu. Enjoy 10% off your bill when you pay with Mastercard®, applicable to the bottomless brunch menu only, not the drinks packages.

Sláinte @ Paragon Shopping Centre - Café By Day, Whiskey Bar By Night

Located in Paragon Shopping Centre, Sláinte offers a distinctive experience that seamlessly transitions from a cosy café by day to an elegant whiskey bar by night. The menu presents brunch favourites in the morning and charcoal-grilled specialities by evening, with an impressive selection of auction-sourced whiskies that elevate the night experience.

Boxty 3.5/5

One unique dish from the breakfast menu was the Boxty ($19.90) — an Irish potato pancake paired with crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, and crème fraîche. The chunky bacon was savoury, smoky, and nicely charred, complementing the buttery richness of the potato pancake and the eggs. While deliciously buttery, the pancake could benefit from a crispier exterior, as some portions felt a bit soggy. The crème fraîche was more of a sweetened yoghurt, which didn't quite complement the dish as a crème fraîche should.

Ayam Bakar 4.5/5

Sláinte's main courses are charbroiled over applewood, imparting a distinct smokiness. The Ayam Bakar ($24.80) is a must-try — spatchcock chicken marinated overnight. The chicken was juicy and tender throughout, with even the breast meat retaining succulence. Served with a brown sauce and house-made chilli, the dish was flavourful enough to enjoy on its own.

Pulpo a la Plancha 3/5

Another grilled speciality we tried was the Pulpo a la Plancha ($34.80) — a slow-charcoal-grilled octopus leg accompanied by fried onions, mashed potatoes, and grilled vegetables. While the dish was enjoyable overall, some parts of the octopus were slightly off in texture, leaving room for improvement.

Wood Fired Marshmallow 4/5

For dessert, the Wood Fired Marshmallow ($19.80) offered a hands-on treat. After roasting the marshmallow over the fire, we dipped it into salted chocolate ganache and then into crushed pistachios, a fun and satisfying end to the meal. The extensive drinks menu showcases rare auction-sourced whiskies alongside a broad wine selection.

Avery Shake

For non-alcoholic options, the milkshakes are a must-try; the Avery Shake was particularly rich, featuring avocado, berries, and milk. Their coffees, brewed from Allpress Espresso beans, are equally noteworthy.
