En Signature Sashimi Moriawase 4.5/5

We were treated to a skilfully and strategically plated work of art - the En SIgnature Sashimi Moriawase (Seasonal). The plating stole the show with its gorgeous plating, vibrant array of flower embellishments, and several kinds of seasonal fresh fish served as sashimi. The selection of thick and delicately sliced premium fish includes the Mebaru (Black Rockfish), Madai (Seabream), Hirame (Flounder) and Shimaaji (Striped Horsemackerel), as well as a generous serving of fresh, creamy uni.

Appetiser Platter 4/5

For the appetiser platter, we had the Uni Ikura Onsen Tamago ($10.90), Pitan Tofu (4.90), Spicy Salmon Belly ($5.90) as well as the Chuka Wakama ($4.90). The sea urchin adds a creamy, slightly sweet note to the wobbly hot spring egg, and the salmon roe lends a juicy pop to the dish. Another favourite goes to the Spicy Salmon Belly, which has an addictive spicy tang to the fresh sashimi.

9-Kind Premium Sushi 4.2/5

The 9-Kind Premium Sushi ($70.90) features a vibrant platter display of 9 different kinds of sushi. On the plate, there are Otoro (Premium Tuna Belly), Chutoro (Tuna Belly), Akami (Premium Tuna), Madai (Seabream), Shimaaji (Striped Horsemackerel, Uni (Sea Urchin), Ikura (Salmon Roe) and Aka Ebi (Argentina Red Shrimp).

Buta Kakuni 3.5/5

The Buta Kakuni ($16.90) features braised pork belly, which leans slightly on the drier side. While we hoped that the meat retains a more tender, juicy texture, it is still packed full of umami.

Tofu Cheesecake 4/5

Round off the meal with their Tofu Cheesecake ($8.90) freshly made in-house. It boasts a soft melt-in-the-mouth texture reminiscent of tofu. It comes with a subtle hint of cheese and sweetness to it, making it a very light and enjoyable dessert to end your meal with.

Town Restaurant @ The Fullerton Hotel Singapore - Satay Soiree by the River

In celebration of Singapore's upcoming national day, Town Restaurant at The Fullerton Hotel Singapore will launch a special dinner promotion from 1 to 11 August 2019. This dining promotion - Satay Soiree by the River, will feature the Singapore heritage brand, Chim’s Satay which is now in its third generation, alongside other local grill favourites. As grilling satays over charcoal flames plays a vital role in bringing out the best of the satays, the culinary team at Town Restaurant was personally trained by two of the three Chim sisters to ensure the quality of it.

Chim's Satay 4.5/5

There are 4 types of Satays - Chicken, Beef, Mutton and Pork, served with House-made buttery peanut sauce. The peanut sauce was really robust and smooth, with chunks of pineapple to loosen up its richness. \As for the satays, I think by far these are one of the best that I ever had. Each skewer was tender and juicy, and the Pork satay was quite exceptional. It can be rather tricky to get the meat to fats ratio right for pork satays, but Chim's Satay has mastered that over the years.

King Prawn 4/5

Mud Crab 4/5

And not just satays, Grilled Seafood are also available. While I was just expecting some Tiger Prawns skewers, what we were offered were King Prawns and Mud Crab. The team had done a great job in grilling the prawns over the charcoal flames. It is easy to over grilled these prawns, but what I had were succulent.

Sambal Sting Ray 3.5/5

Salmon Medallion 4.2/5

Adding on to the hawker flavour of this Satay Soiree is Sambal Sting Ray, individually wrapped with foil to keep it warm and moist till you open it up on your table. What I also appreciate is the addition of Salmon Medallion. Each chunk was fatty and tender. Although it may not be considered as a typical local barbeque ingredient, as a fan of salmon, this is a bonus.

Otah 4/5

Not to forget Otahwhich was packed with chunks of fish. Not in the picture is Chef Chan's Signature Salted Egg Yolk Lobster. I had horrible renditions of this dish before, in which the lobsters were either too dry or mushy, but this was moist and succulent. The salted egg yolk crust was generous but did not overpower the lobster at all. Do note that this is only available on Friday and Saturday.
