The restaurant is located at a convenient area for parking.  Diners can indeed park on the street right next to the restaurant (residential building) or PP 3 to make life easier.  The setting and decoration of the restaurant are warm and tables are space out nicely.  We were lucky to get our own booth which increase the sense of intimacy and privacy.

The restaurant indeed contacted me to select the menu upon my reservation confirmed. From the comment I read from previous posting, I believe the restaurant just tried to avoid the same disappointment (bad comment) from happening again. Well, I guess this is a good gesture but somehow, they missed an enquiry I sent and I have to resend it again in order to get a reply.

 Oyster – jalapeno pepper & dashi
Thought jalapeno will be a bit aggressive but surprisingly the natural lovely oyster taste was still there, good job!

 Salmon Roe - It wasn’t too long ago when I started to enjoy the salmon roe. My friend always complains about the fishy taste of Salmon roe and somewhat I agreed with him since most restaurant will prepare the salmon roe in a salty manner. Once the soya sauce taste is too strong, the juiciness of salmon roe will be swept completely. Thank goodness, the salmon roe here is nothing on the salty side and after taste of the juice can linger in your mouth for quite some time.

 Consommé de papillote - The presentation is appealing and drove up my expectation towards the dish. The consommé is very nice but it’s unfortunate
 that the after taste from the precedents were way too strong to bring out the character of this consommé. A clear and light broth to welcome the next course…wonder how they can re-arrange the courses to play the magic???

 Foie: I have no complaint about the food but an episode upset me that I would like to share: I communicated with them via email about the food I don't like, i.e. Uni and white chocolate. However, there's no reply after a 2-week wait thus I wrote them again.  I got a reply within 2 days this time (which was 2 days before my visit) and reassured me that my request is being taken care of.  To my dismay, they didn't re-arranged the ingredients but merely removed the uni from the dish.  I asked them why they did that, they claimed that my request came in too short of a notice so nothing can be re-arranged from their end. Honestly, that's not a valid appropriate answer from a Michelin starred restaurant.  

First, they didn't respond to my email in a timely manner.  Second, they are being utterly irresponsible in their service.  I am certain Uni is a key part to the Foie dish and the price will defiinitely be different with the main ingredient removed.

 Abalone: the presentation is phenomenal but the taste is just average.  The abalone is chewy and tasteless, there's no connection between the abalone and the side ingredients as the seasoning is all on its own.

 Venison: seasoning excellent, a bit dry due to the nature of venison but general speaking, it's good

 Rapa Nui - my compliment goes to their dessert, well done in both Rapa Nui and petite four.  I really enjoyed the Rapa Nui, a perfect portion after a full course meal and no excessive sugar being added.

题外话/补充资料： 1) Corkage fee of $350 is quite reasonable. 2) Their email communication is lousy, beware!
