Xing Yue Xuan (星粤轩) @ Resorts World Sentosa - Jumbo Group’s First Foray into Premium Cantonese Cuisine

Xing Yue Xuan (星粤轩), located at Weave Mall in Resorts World Sentosa, marks Jumbo Group’s inaugural venture into premium Cantonese dining. Showcasing the artistry of traditional Cantonese cuisine while embracing modern refinement, the restaurant offers a repertoire of curated executive set lunches alongside an extensive à la carte menu that celebrates the depth and finesse of this much-loved cuisine.

Amuse Bouche 4/5

Dinner commences with an elegant Amuse Bouche, a delicate scallop and prawn salad encased in a crisp housemade kueh pie tee shell. Served with a ceremonial cup of Honeycomb Ruby Tea, a soothing blend of jujube and Formosa oolong, this refined pairing sets the tone for the meal.

Double-boiled Fish Maw & Kampung Chicken Soup 4.8/5

The Double-boiled Fish Maw & Kampung Chicken Soup ($38) exemplifies Cantonese soup mastery. Prepared through a meticulous two-hour steaming of old hen, pork, and chicken feet, followed by careful boiling, the broth develops a luxuriously creamy body. Enriched with premium fish maw, scallops, morel mushrooms, and wolfberries, the soup is deeply nourishing, offering layers of umami richness in every spoonful.

Dong Po Pork Belly in Hakka Style 4.8/5

The Dong Po Pork Belly in Hakka Style ($38 per pax) is a standout. Each portion of pork belly undergoes a precise, multi-step process — blanched, torched, steamed, and bound in a bamboo leaf string — before being braised for six hours in a proprietary soy sauce. The result is melt-in-the-mouth pork layered with flavours that pay homage to authentic Hakka culinary tradition.

Flambéed Drunken Live Prawns 4.5/5

The Flambéed Drunken Live Prawns ($48 per portion, 300g) deliver both spectacle and flavour. Premium live prawns are flambéed tableside in Er Guo Tou Baijiu before simmering in a herbal broth infused with goji berries and angelica root. Cooked in minutes, the prawns emerge juicy and aromatic, laced with subtle wine and herbal notes.

Xing Yue Xuan Fuss-Free Crab in Signature Black Pepper (Half Crab) 4.5/5

For crustacean lovers, the Xing Yue Xuan Fuss-Free Crab ($78 per pax, Half Crab) is not to be missed. Available in three renditions that pay tribute to JUMBO Group’s celebrated seafood heritage, diners can choose from the robust Signature Black Pepper, the iconic award-winning Chilli Crab, or an elegant steamed version topped with velvety custard egg and caviar. We opted for the Signature Black Pepper, where the punchy, aromatic spice balanced beautifully with the natural sweetness of the crab, delivering a dish that was both fiery and indulgent.

Whole 3-Head Abalone & Sea Cucumber in Fragrant Rice 4.2/5

Served in a sizzling hot stone pot, the Whole 3-Head Abalone & Sea Cucumber in Fragrant Rice ($68 per pax) impresses with its contrasting textures. The rice, wok-fried with a house soy blend, develops a smoky fragrance before being topped with tender sea cucumber and a whole 3-head abalone — a dish that marries comfort with luxury.

Classic Chinese Duo Pastry Platter 3.5/5

Ending on a sweet note, the Classic Chinese Duo Pastry Platter ($16) showcases rotating heritage-inspired creations. Options may include a tangy Fresh Vanilla Mousse with Passion Fruit Sauce or an Awakening Lion pastry with tangerine peel red bean filling, offering a refined conclusion to the meal.

Xing Yue Xuan successfully captures the essence of Cantonese fine dining while weaving in the JUMBO DNA of seafood mastery. Whether for a business lunch or a celebratory dinner, it’s a destination worth seeking out at Resorts World Sentosa.

ANTO Pizza E Aperitivi @ Jiak Chuan Road - Awarded No.13 in Asia Pacific and No.95 in The World in The Prestigious 50 Top Pizza Awards

ANTO Pizza E Aperitivi at Jiak Chuan is one pizzeria to watch, standing proud in Singapore’s vibrant pizza scene. Opened only late last year in 2024, ANTO has already made waves internationally, claiming the top spot in Singapore, clinching No. 13 in Asia Pacific and No. 95 in the world in the prestigious 50 Top Pizza Awards. An incredible feat for such a young establishment.

Burrata 4.5/5

While ANTO is first and foremost a pizzeria, the menu offers a handful of sharing plates that complement its pizzas well. We started with the Burrata ($28), served with three types of tomatoes and paired with pesto parlage. The burrata was fresh and creamy, while the natural sweetness of the tomatoes brought a refreshing vibrancy to the dish.

Vitello Tonnato 4.5/5

The Vitello Tonnato ($30) proved to be a welcome starter before diving into the dough-heavy mains. Thinly sliced poached veal was served with Bruno sauce, tender and melt-in-the-mouth. The veal carried a delicate sweetness that paired beautifully with the creamy, savoury sauce.

Marinara Arrostita 4.8/5

Our first pizza was the Marinara Arrostita ($26), topped with cherry tomatoes, oregano and garlic oil. The dough was light and airy with a delightful chew, while the tomatoes imparted natural sweetness. Finished with the fragrance of oregano and garlic oil, this pizza was simple yet deeply satisfying.

Rocco 4.2/5

The Rocco ($24) is a Southern Italian-style pizza baked in a small pan at over 250°C for 10–12 minutes. The result is a puffed crust with a crispy exterior and fluffy interior. Topped with fiordilatte cheese, thinly sliced potatoes, and fresh rosemary, each bite was rustic, hearty and full of texture.

Tonno & Cipolla 4.2/5

The Tonno & Cipolla ($42) was an unexpected surprise. On my first visit, Chef Antonio Brancato leaned safe and traditional with his pizzas, but this creation shows his playful, experimental side. Inspired by Japanese flavours, it featured onion purée, slow-cooked tuna prepared Asian-style and seaweed. Each bite carried the brininess of the sea, the umami of tuna, and the crunch of seaweed. It is a bold yet elegant fusion.

Wagyu Pizza 4.5/5

We also tried the limited-time Wagyu Pizza ($38), topped with cherry tomato confit, fiordilatte cheese, sundried tomatoes, wagyu beef (medium-rare), chimichurri and truffle oil. Rich yet balanced, the toppings complemented one another harmoniously, with the chimichurri and truffle oil elevating the indulgence.

Sgroppino 4.5/5

The Sgroppino ($18) is a must-order here. A Venetian cocktail of lemon sorbet, Prosecco and vodka, it is theatrically prepared tableside by the staff. Light, zesty and refreshing with just the right hint of sweetness, it works beautifully as both a palate cleanser between pizzas and a lively way to end the meal.

Tiramisu 4.2/5

To finish, we had the classic Tiramisu ($15). Soft, pillowy and well-balanced, it ticked the boxes of what makes a good tiramisu without being overly heavy.

With its world-class dough, thoughtful toppings and playful balance between tradition and innovation, ANTO Pizza E Aperitivi has firmly established itself as one of Singapore’s best pizzerias. Whether you’re here for a classic like the Marinara or something daring like the Tonno & Cipolla, ANTO promises a memorable experience worth revisiting.
