Team lunch. 2 ⭐️⭐️contemporary Italian under chef Bombana’s umbrella.Pleasantly surprised by the choice of venue (guess the “dim sum for Western visitors” cliche didn’t apply to this Project).Shown into the private room seating 12, featuring raw decor like birch tree bark wall and ceiling lights.Noted that only bottles of water were available in the ice-bucket. Probably a very sober lunch, dashing all hopes of the wine pairing option we had in mind. Choice of 2 courses ($620 pp), 3 courses ($760 p
Pleasantly surprised by the choice of venue (guess the “dim sum for Western visitors” cliche didn’t apply to this Project).
Shown into the private room seating 12, featuring raw decor like birch tree bark wall and ceiling lights.
Noted that only bottles of water were available in the ice-bucket. Probably a very sober lunch, dashing all hopes of the wine pairing option we had in mind.
Choice of 2 courses ($620 pp), 3 courses ($760 pp) and 4 courses ($980 pp).
Tacit agreement amongst us that the $1880 pp Degustation Menu was out of bounds for budget reasons. Everyone went for 3 courses.
Here’s what we had.
Crackers with roasted Sundried tomatoes
Sour dough bread
Amuse bouche: Tomato consommé
-Appetizer-
BLUE LOBSTER with beetroot and berries
OR
Ultra thin slices of Australian BLACKLIP ABALONE with oscietra caviar, daikon, lovage (獨活草which tasted like celery/parsley) and cucumber juice

-Dessert-
Deconstructed TIRAMISU with mascarpone gelato, mascarpone cream and coffee meringue
-Petit fours-
Lemon tart and Coffee biscuit
Coffee or tea not included. The Latte I ordered was good.
In summary: lovely lunch (esp since it was a treat), but not wowed as a ⭐️⭐️ eatery should. Maybe cos we didn’t get to try any of the signature items like the red prawn pasta. Some of the male members of the team might not be very full.
