Seafood Bar

Our first stop was the fresh Seafood Bar, with choices ranging from Snow Crab Leg, Sustainable Boston Lobster, Pacific Clam, Half Shell Scallop, Sea Conch, and more. Our favourites were the sweet Snow Crab Legs, crunchy Tiger Prawns, and the plump Seasonal Oysters with an interesting selection of condiments, including hot sauce, Thai Nam Jim sauce and red wine mignonette.

Handcrafted Meats & Antipasto

The Iberico Ham was a standout for us with its delicate, thinly shaved slices. The Handcrafted Meats & Antipasto station also featured a range of charcuterie, including Beef Salami, Chicken Ham, Pastrami, and more.

Boutique Cheeses

The Boutique Cheeses section is truly a cheese lover's paradise. All sorts of cheeses were available, and you could create your perfect bite paired with options like dried fruits, assorted nuts, honeycomb, and cheese crackers.

Breakfast Station

The popular live Breakfast Station offered a variety of eggs, including Omelette, Scrambled, Sunny Side Up, and the luxurious Lobster Egg Benedict. Pair your eggs with Rosti Potato, Chicken & Pork Sausage, Streaky Pork Bacon, and Grilled Tomato with Pesto for a complete breakfast experience.

Hand-Stretched Pizza

There was even Hand-Stretched Pizza with different flavours available.

Live Pasta Station

We sampled the Squid Ink Linguine Aglio Olio and Truffle Creamy Mushroom Tortellini from the Live Pasta Station. Unfortunately, the linguine was underseasoned, and the tortellini was a bit too salty for our liking.

Whole Golden Pig

Singapore Chilli and Salted Egg Crab

Make sure to check out the Singapore Chilli and Salted Egg Crab, where free-flow fluffy golden mantou is available for the best pairing.

Western Hot Station

At the Western Hot Station, you can expect hearty choices such as Baked Chicken Roulade with Creamy Mushroom Sauce, Pan Seared Sustainable Barramundi Fillet with Citrus Emulsion, Seafood Bouillabaisse and more.

Local Delights

If you crave Local Delights, you can satisfy them with dishes such as XO Fried Rice with Shrimp, Wok-fried Kam Hiang Tiger Prawn and Samsui Kampong Chicken. I particularly loved the unassuming Stir-fried Beans with Minced Pork that was seasoned perfectly.

Roasted Stall

The Roasted Stall offered Roasted Pork Belly, Maltose Honey Char Siew and Roasted Chicken, served with staples of rice, chicken rice chilli sauce, dark soya sauce and ginger paste.

Edge Nyonya Laksa

The Edge Nyonya Laksa was nicely lemak. We also appreciated how you could add your preferred Yong Tau Foo to your bowl.

Indian Cuisine

Indulge in a vibrant spread at the Indian Cuisine station, including Lamb Biryani Rice, Butter Chicken, Tandoori Tiger Prawn, various Naan, and more.

Desserts

We were spoiled for choice with a stunning variety of Desserts. The intricately designed desserts came in a huge variety, including Tartlets, Macarons, Pralines and Trifles.

Assorted Nyonya Kueh

Assorted Ice Cream, Gelato and Sorbet

Finish on a sweet and refreshing note with the Assorted Ice Cream, Gelato and Sorbet with flavours such as Strawberry, Mango and Lemon Lime. We had the Strawberry and liked that it was creamy and wasn’t too sweet.

Hevel @ Keong Saik Road - Honest Modern European Cuisine, with a Focus on Communal Joy, Seasonal Integrity, Wrapped in Heartfelt Hospitality.

Dinner at Hevel offers a very polished experience from start to finish. The culinary team, led by Chef Stefan Liau, have crafted a memorable Chef's menu that showcases a thoughtful blend of familiar, comforting flavours alongside unexpected, playful pairings.

Priced at $138++ per person, the menu consists of six courses featuring eleven dishes, each carefully designed to whisk diners away on a culinary journey. The atmosphere exudes sophistication from the moment you sit down and sets the mood for a cosy dinner date or a gathering with close friends.

Cashew Cream, Kelp, and Banana Tart 4.5/5

Our first snack was a Cashew Cream, Kelp, and Banana Tart. It may sound like an unusual combination, but it comes together beautifully. The fermented cashew cream is rich and creamy, with sweet, slightly nutty, and savoury notes.

Foie Gras 4.5/5

The second snack features delicate Foie Gras marinated in fragrant ginger flower, creating a luxurious and aromatic experience. The foie gras is silky and rich, with a velvety texture that melts in your mouth. The ginger flower adds a unique floral note, balancing the richness of the foie gras.

Victorian Lamb Tartare 4.2/5

The third snack is a Victorian Lamb Tartare, a treat showcasing finely diced, tender lamb that is seasoned to perfection with a hint of spice. It is topped with caviar and placed atop a crispy potato hash.

Custard 4.8/5

Next up is the Custard, which has chawanmushi paired with a creamy sauce. While the previous three snacks are more playful in flavour, this dish falls into the realm of comfort food. The custard is beautifully fragrant with the use of thyme and chives. Accompanying it is a smooth buttermilk sauce, tender scallops, crispy sunchoke chips, and a touch of caviar.

Crudo 4/5

The next four dishes were presented together to provide a communal experience. It's a good idea that allows diners to interact, taste more dishes, as well as decide some of the sequence of their meal.

We enjoyed Kingfish prepared in two distinct styles. The first was Crudo, where a tangy verjus and fragrant dill complemented the fresh, delicate fish. The addition of zesty grapefruit slices added a bright, citrusy kick that balanced the dish perfectly.

Tartare 4.2/5

The second preparation was a Tartare of smoked Kingfish with smoked mussels. This dish was served in a charming and crispy little candied tart, which provided a delightful contrast in sweetness and crunch.

Rye Soft Roll 3.8/5

We also had a Rye Soft Roll, which was served delightfully warm. While rye doesn't make for a pillowy soft roll, the earthy flavour of rye went really well with the unique Sakura Smoked Butter. You will definitely taste the smokiness of the butter, which is very enjoyable. We also used the bread to mop up some of the other sauces from the other three dishes.

Octopus 4.5

The last of the communal dishes was an Octopus dish served with Piquillo peppers and the interesting salsify, which is a root vegetable belonging to the dandelion family. It is also known as the Oyster plant because it offers a mineral-like flavour when cooked. The octopus is well prepared and tender, and the sauce adds a vibrant touch that enhances the dish.

Black Cod 4/5

After the four communal dishes comes a choice of main course - Black Cod or Maple Leaf Duck ($14++ supplement required).

The Black Cod is first seared in a pan and then finished in the oven, resulting in a slightly smoky exterior and crispy skin, while the buttery, flaky flesh inside stays moist and succulent. It's a delightful, classic choice if you're in the mood for seafood.

Maple Leaf Duck 4.5/5

However, the Maple Leaf Duck would be my pick for the main course. The duck was remarkably tender and juicy, the skin was nice and crisp. Accompanying the duck was a velvety parsnip purée, adding a creamy, earthy element.

Roasted Grains 4.5/5

For the final savoury dish, we were presented with a hearty bowl of Roasted Grains, in this case, barley, which offered a nutty flavour and a pleasing chewy texture. The dish was both comforting and indulgent, topped with tender, shredded confit duck leg. The sauce, crafted from white onion and cream, was really delicious and fragrant, and the dish was also topped with truffle and sage. One of the best aspects of this dish is that you can request a second serving if you still have room in your stomach. This generous option ensures that you leave completely satisfied.

Smoked Hay 2.8/5

The final dish on this tasting menu was the Smoked Hay dessert. However, I wasn't particularly fond of this flavour combination. While it's quite impressive that it manages to capture the flavour of smoked hay, after a rich meal, I was looking for something sweeter or more refreshing to round out the experience.

Hevel also offers a thoughtfully curated wine pairing programme priced at $98++ and a cocktail pairing option for $78++. The wine pairing we tried features an exquisite selection sourced from handpicked small-batch producers, showcasing a range of unique and high-quality wines. This selection highlights the artistry of these boutique wineries and emphasises a celebration of fortified wines, which add depth and complexity to the dining experience.

Overall, Hevel is an excellent choice for those wanting to enjoy quality cuisine in a stylish and vibrant setting.
