Went a few times for dinner when restaurant first opened- extravagantly yummy experiences. There’s been a lot of chatter about seeing chef Sung Anh on that Netflix show. Decided to revisit since they started serving lunch, which according to PickyEater, was not as costly as dinner. We were seated and presented with menus (without prices). Server noted that the menu did not include the signature items abalone taco and acorn noodles and asked if we would like them. As a matter of course and reflex
There’s been a lot of chatter about seeing chef Sung Anh on that Netflix show. Decided to revisit since they started serving lunch, which according to PickyEater, was not as costly as dinner.
We were seated and presented with menus (without prices). Server noted that the menu did not include the signature items abalone taco and acorn noodles and asked if we would like them. As a matter of course and reflex, we replied “Yes Please!”.
Here’s what we had.
Welcome drink: choice of a non-alcoholic Raspberry Soda or rice Wine with Pine Leaves; both refreshing concoctions to kickstart our lunch.
Prawn on crispy seaweed filled with mashed potato.
Tartlet with Broad bean, Green Soybean, Cauliflower and Almond.
Add on- charcoal-grilled abalone in a crispy taco shell made from beancurd skin and shiso leaf.
Poached Bigfin Squid accompanied by summer seaweed, cucumber, and sweet radish served with a Cold Broth of fermented red pepper tomato and carrots; refreshingly spicy.
Steamed Egg with Pine Nut, prawn, corn, ginkgo, topped with shaved black truffle.
Grilled Butterfish, served on foam of salted anchovies, pickled cherries and chilies; finished with deep fried Korean mint leaves.
Another add on : noodles made with acorns- roasted then ground into a fine powder. Served with Parmesan cheese and Korean parsley butter purée; topped with shaved Australian black truffle.
Korean "Galbi" Short Rib- expertly prepared, meltingly tender. Served with three types of Korean rice cooked in a cast iron pot.
No one was near halfway full. Jokingly I asked if they wanted more acorn noodles and everyone exclaimed that their stomachs needed a repeat of the whole meal.
Jasmine Sorbet with Coconut
Basque cheese cake
Rice Cake to go with our coffee.
In summary: with the addition of the add-ons, our meal came up to around $2,000 pp. Not even half full. Quality over quantity innit…
