As beef lovers, the newly awarded michelin 1 star steak house certainly drawn our huge interest to try out. We decided to go for their tasting menu for my honey birthday dinner. The setting is quite modern, but the seat is quite close to each other between the tables. Some people may feel a bit annoying as you can clearly hear the conversation from the table next to us.

First come the snack, lobster mousse with just a bit of lemon flavor. Quite refreshing and definitely get your appetitie going.

Next is the frangelico lemongrass cocktail. The flavour is strong and quite amazing. An additional small rose decoration also lightening things up.

Next in line is the langoustine cappaccio. Very sweet in taste with a touch of olive oil, saseme seed, and a few capers on top. The caper has some slight souriness that spice up thing just a little bit while at the same time provides a different texture. Very nice indeed.

The beef tartare is the other choices for starter other than the cappaccio. It is made out of angus beef and with a strong flavour. Two sets, one mixed with hazelnuts and one without. The one with hazelnuts seems to provide a bit more texture when chewing. Definitely, the beef flavour will be sticking around in your mouth. Quite impressive.

There are four beef main courses serves in sequence. First come the American prime angus, which is loaded with strong flavour and with side mesh potato. The beef is very lean and quite tendered. Surprisingly, the mesh potato is super smooth (almost as good as the golden benchmark Robuchon's in my opinion). Second comes the Korean filet, boy it is almost effortless to cut through and it is very juicy! With a touch of asian flavor of chinese shanghai cabbage on the side makes a perfect companion. Next the Japanese certified Kobe chuck roll and ... omg... the marble fats just saturated in your mouth along with just a bit of sea salt and wasabi. The last one is the Australian wagyu tender. I guess the Kobe beef is sooo good that make this one a bit of let down. Nevertheless, it is still very good along with the side juicy cherry tomatoes.

Afterwards, they serves the tiramisu cocktail. It is a bit new to us as we are big fan of tiramisu cake dessert but services in cocktail is definitely a new experience for us. I am ok with it but compared the two cocktails they served, I prefer the lemon grass. I guess I am so used to the sweet tiramisu cake or ice cream and it make a bit strange to drink the non sweet cocktail.

Lastly, the desert is almond granite. Light flavour to balance out the heavy meat courses. For me, I would prefer other type of dessert.

Overall, we are very pleased with our experience with Beefbar. Definitely for those beef lovers, this place will be heaven, and this high end steak house will not disappoint you.
