Ta Vie is definitely one of my finest food experience in the past few months. This time I was here for Valentine's day. The menu indeed is quite pricey but given the quality of the food I don't think I can complain. The menu has been nicely decorated and presented. The contents. Quite a modern environment too.

The contents.
Quite a modern environment too.
First dish: squid tartare with caviar, uni and avocado. The squid itself is a little fishy but mixing everything together you won't notice the fishiness.
Second dish was an oyster with duck consomme and black truffles. This is pretty good and the duck consomme was really tasty.
Third dish: mussels with artichoke salad. The beauty of this dish is that the shell of the mustard is actually made my potato (that black thing) which is quite creative and interesting. Appreciate the effort!
Fourth: a Japanese crab meat risotto. Quite tasty and it's done just right, not too rich.
Fifth: their signature abalone dish. Similar to the mussel dish, the "shell" is kind of a handmade pastry. The sauce is quite rich and buttery. Quite good.
Sixth: Blue lobster, very nicely done. The lobster meat is actually quite soft in the middle. The dressing is quite refreshing too!
Seventh: the wagyu smoked with leaf. Wagyu can never go wrong. If you screw up wagyu you're a terrible cook. Certainly not going to happen here.
Dessert was a rose, raspberry and red dragon fruit mix with vanilla sorbet. Very tasty and certainly very Valentine!
Forgot to take the last dessert and I was quite full by then.
Overall a very good experience and the staff were indeed quite detailed while most of them were actually Japanese. Nevertheless I suggest them to work on the interval between different courses as it can be a little inconsistent which caused to wait for some of the courses too be exceptionally long. One could argue it's over priced, and it probably is, but I personally would still come again as most "artistic" fine dinning places looks good but doesn't taste good, this place actually has both.
