This place is headed by a two-star Michelin chef Philippe Leveille, serving Italian cuisine with a modern twist. So it was a Sunday morning and of course we slept till the sun's up and bright. Had a booking for 1 pm, turned up at the restaurant around 1:30 pm and was told that we need to return the table by 2:30 pm due to a private event booking. Can't help but felt a bit annoyed since they should have told us when we made the booking. Anyhow, we weren't bother to look for another place so we sa

Restaurant interior - The setting is simple, nothing too fancy but pleasant. OK. Fast forward to the main focus - food! So here's what I tried:
Burrata di Andria, tomato and aubergine terrine, gazpacho shot - Nice mix of flavors - you can taste each of the ingredients complementing each other.
Cold foie gras escalope, caramelized figs, red wine and brioches - Personally would have preferred a smooth piece of foie gras without the addition of the purple-ish vinegar 'skin' over it.
Fresh spaghetti with lobster and three different tomatoes sauce - This was sooo good! Al dente spaghetti, great balance of acidity and sweetness, lobster meat was firm and succulent
Sponge pudding with rum (was offered as an alternative since the other desserts on the lunch menu were not available) - Was alright, the pudding was a bit stuff on itself - guess that's where the rum comes inFinal Thoughts:
Wouldn't mind re-visiting to try their other dishes. A slight take back was the service - there were 4 waiters serving my table of 4 and another party of 2. Still, they were not very attentive and one of them was even a bit rude/ blunt.
