Bedrock Origin @ Oasia Resort Sentosa - Acclaimed Home-grown Steakhouse Launches Second Restaurant

Following the success of Bedrock Bar & Grill at Somerset, the team has opened a second restaurant - Bedrock Origin at the new Oasia Resort Sentosa. Bedrock Origin features more diverse ingredients compare to its flagship restaurant. Diners can look forward to a new and exclusive selection of seafood, dry-aged meats including fish, as well as roasted harvests, in addition to the perennial mush-have steaks.

Kingfish Sashimi 4.5/5

We started the dinner with the appetising Kingfish Sashimi ($32). The sashimi is topped with brown rice puff, chopped wasabi and micro herbs. Bringing the dish together and giving it a zesty finishing is the ceviche soy dressing.

Grilled Pear Salad 4/5

Next is the Grilled Pear Salad ($22) tossed in blue cheese dressing. For those that are not a fan of blue cheese, the dressing is not that piquant, balanced by the fruity sweetness from the pear and medjool dates with the walnut for the extra nuttiness and texture.

Aged Kuhlbarra Barramundi Tail 4.5/5

Dry-aged for seven days to intensify the flavour is the Aged Kuhlbarra Barramundi Tail ($88). Chimichurri which consists of parsley, thyme, chervil, garlic, white wine vinegar and olive oil, is spread onto the fishtail. Each mouthfeel of the moist fish meat has a zest, piquant flavours of chilli and herbs.

Turbot On The Bone 4.2/5

The Turbot On The Bone ($68) is exclusively imported from France. It is dry-aged for three days and cooked with the bone on, using the bone to transfer the heat evenly and retain the juiciness of the fish. It is served with kombu compound butter and tomato salsa.

Plant-Based Beef Wellington 3/5

We moved back to the land from the sea, starting with the Plant-Based Beef Wellington ($38). In support of Oasia Resort Sentosa's wellness lifestyle, Bedrock Origin also offers plant-based meat alternatives, as well as nutritious and keto-friendly options. The plant-based meatloaf is marinated with marmite and worcestershire sauce encased in a puff pastry, served alongside a mixed green salad and cherry tomatoes with lemon vinaigrette. An excellent alternative for vegetarians, but I still prefer the real stuff.

Dry-Aged Australian Barley-Fed Bone in Striploin ($110) 400g 4.2/5

My go-to will still be the real meat in the Dry-Aged Australian Barley-Fed Bone in Striploin ($110), about 400g. The in-house dry-aged striploin is simply seasoned with salt and pepper, grilled over applewood fire. The beautiful red meat is juicy and tender, with a hint of smokiness. Diners can have it with the following sauces - red wine, Bedrock chilli oil, classic bearnaise and wholegrain whisky mustard.

Yukon Gold Potatoes 4.5/5

Spicy Brussel Sprouts 4.2/5

Bedrock Mac N Cheese 4.5/5

To go along with the mains, diners can order a number of sides to complement them. Some of the side dishes we had were Yukon Gold Potatoes ($16), Spicy Brussel Sprouts ($16) and Bedrock Mac N Cheese ($22).

Palm Tarte 4/5

Wrapping up our dinner is the Palm Tarte ($22). The gula melaka chiffon cake is coated with mascarpone cream cheese paired with Bailey's Irish Cream  & Brandy infused walnut-raisin tapenade, housenade marmalade, fresh raspberries and blueberries.

Woodford Reserve Bourbon

Whisky connoisseurs can delve into a list of traditional whiskies from around the world (from $11++ to $150++ per glass). Appreciate rare and special spirits made by boutique family distillers in remote places and premium whiskies, including limited edition labels like the Woodford Reserve 'Master Collection Very Rare Fine Bourbon'. Cocktails are also presented as classics (from $15++ per glass) or whisky-based renditions (from $15++ per glass) created in collaboration with Woodford Reserve, such as the Bedrock Highball and Double Oaked Old Fashioned.

Milkfish @ Millenia Walk - Scrumptious Grilled Whole Milkfish Belly And Wholesome Seafood Soup

Milkfish at Millenia Walk is the brand's second outlet, serving up slow-cooked seafood soup brewed in collaboration with Áo Broth. The soup has no MSG, dairy and preservatives. While its dairy-free yet milky broth is the main offering of Milkfish, what you shouldn't be missing out on is its Grilled Whole Milkfish Belly.

Grilled Whole Milkfish Belly 4.2/5

Milkfish is adored by many for its generous belly fat, especially so in Taiwan and the Philippines. Over at Milkfish, its Grilled Whole Milkfish Belly ($19 a la carte/$23.80 set) gets you an unctuous piece of grilled milkfish belly imported from Taiwan, served deboned. You may be more familiar with grilled salmon belly, and this is equally delicious with a dash of lemon juice and the sweet-savoury dipping sauce. Ideally, for my plate of milkfish, I would prefer it to be charred further to render the fats slightly more. A bowl of hearty Multigrain Rice will be an apt complement to its fatty goodness.

Signature Soup 4/5

The milkfish also forms the base of its signature soup with pork bones and fresh clams, attaining a milky emulsion and sweet taste. It eliminates the need to add any milk. The Signature Soup ($12.80) features sliced red snapper fish, chosen for its relatively sweeter taste and firmer texture than the usual Batang fish, a whole prawn and clams alongside tofu, vegetables and a housemade minced pork patty. You can also upgrade the red snapper to grouper for a more premium selection. Though it wasn't as rich as expected, the depth of flavour was undoubtedly there, and I love the elusive aroma of the Hua Diao Wine, which elevated the enjoyment of the soup.

Brown Rice Vermicelli

I had mine with Brown Rice Vermicelli, which brought out the sweetness of the soup. The entire bowl was pretty wholesome, just that the portion of the soup was a tad too small an amount for the lot.

Premium Soup Set 3/5

The Premium Soup Set ($32.80) uses the same soup base with additional seafood items, including half lobster, whole abalone and scallop. With such a price point, I expected the lobster's quality could be better. If you are in the mood for paofan, there's also an option for crispy rice on the menu.

Chilled Tofu with Century Egg 3.8/5

Oriental Salad in Special Vinegar Dressing 3.8/5

The Small Plates ($3 each) and Sharing Plates offered are worth a go, such as the Marinated Chilled Tomatoes, Oriental Salad in Special Vinegar Dressing, and the Chilled Tofu with Century Egg. A set meal includes two sides and a drink.

Deep Fried Prawn Rolls 4/5

For Sharing Plate, we tried the housemade Deep Fried Prawn Rolls ($6 for 4pc), which are very good with well-seasoned and juicy filling.
