I had my first try here more than 2 years ago, before its rennovation, and that experience was wonderful, with good food (particularly the foie gras and thin slice Wagyu main course) and an adorable price ($280 then!). I vowed to come back again.Took me 2 years to finally return, but perhaps with the costly inflation, the set with a steak now costs $370.

Took me 2 years to finally return, but perhaps with the costly inflation, the set with a steak now costs $370. It has been nicely rennovated, but unfortunately to my despair, the food remained static, if not worse? I was no longer appalled by the foie gras, which now tasted like the cheaper stale ones. It was cooked the same way, crispy and juicy, but without good quality raw material to start with, a dish will just not be as good. Mushroom soup was still good. Steak was however mediocore. I could taste the tenderness and smoothness of the Wagyu, but again the flavour of the beef was very thin, probably again owing to the poor choice of beef. Dessert, on the other hand, revealed some thoughtfulness. I chose a Blueberry Mousse, thinking it would just be as ordinary as the dishes prior, but it turned out to be a coconut mousse (could be smoother though) with bits of sago inside (a nice fusion), and some fresh berries on top. Besides this thoughtful surprise, dinner was ok...
Certainly worth a first try, but with so many restaurants and competitive deals out there, Chez Moi probably has lost me as one of her supporters.
