We had to book 2 months ahead for our table, and all this time I was wondering what the wait was all about. Turns out the place is small, fits about 20 people and they only have 1 seating each night. But I think in hindsight, mostly because the food is damn good.The monthly menus are structured and themed.

The monthly menus are structured and themed. We were so lucky as December's was "Best of 2010", which means we got a taste of all the previous menus.The set course starts with amuse bouche, soup and salad, a plate of carbs, something from sea, something from land, a sorbet palate cleanser, dessert and a macaroon inspired by candy bars. Just this structure itself makes me happy as I know I am going to have a very satisfying meal
Amuse Bouche of pork and diakon - amazing taste and an impressive start
Alphabet Tomato soup & Sloppy Joe made with wagyu beef - so yum, I could eat this everyday!
Bacon & Egg Risotto - impressive presentation of the poached egg but I am not a big fan of truffle oil so this was just ok for me
Scallop and Clams in saffron broth and cauliflower custard - huge scallop! and really amazing cauliflower custard
Flank Steak - amazed at how tender the flank steak was, I was expecting a much tougher steak
Green Apple Sorbet with Hoegaarden Beer - genius!
Apple Cake with salted caramel ice cream - OUT OF THIS WORLD, best dessert I have EVER had...so evil...the portions need to be much much bigger!
"Twix" macaroon sandwich - peanut butter ice cream, chocolate ganache and caramel, what a great finish
I was so stuffed by the end but so happy and just couldn't stop thinking about the apple cake and how impressed I was with the menu and unpretentious food. Service was excellent, everyone was really friendly. Chef was highly attentive and presented each course.
(Noted: Openrice map misleading, the restuarant is actually across The Wheel near the escalators.)
