Feel free to kick back in casual dress in this modern but cosy setting.
Appetisers and Cold Dishes
The antipasti, salads and seafood are beautifully laid out on marble shelves, with the latter in its own private alcove or walk-in room.
The cold seafood is plentiful but are arranged in neat baskets and plates for easy picking.
The cheese and charcuterie station are together. Executive Chef Stefano di Salvo personally chooses the kind of meats and cheeses to be imported from Europe.

I saw this Brillat-Savarin and my evening was complete.
Hot mains
The highlight is probably the Parilla grill meat station featuring prime rib, wagyu cuts, Iberico pork, grilled prawns and squid.
Get your foie gras here too.
There is a woodfire oven right on site.
The thin-crust pizzas are not too bad. Look out for the mushroom pizza with black truffle paste.
There are also hot Asian mains, of course, and the one you shouldn't miss is the rendang and curries.
Rendang so rich and decadent! I think it would do even better with a sprinkle of sea salt.
There's a Singapore showcase too, featuring favourites like black pepper crab (first photo), char kway teow and this...
Isn't that stunning? The Stir-fried Roasted Pork is simply wicked, and calls to mind my own childhood when we used to fry leftover roast pork with soy and garlic this way.
Steamed Seabass in Spiced Chili Sauce
There's so much to eat, I couldn't cover everything. There's still dim sum and other snacks.
There are a couple of soups including bak kut teh, which is nicely herbal with ribs that have been boiled until they are fall-off-the-bone tender.
The noodle station has pretty good laksa. Thankfully they serve in a portion that's just right for sampling, so you don't get too full on this.
Desserts
There is a whole section dedicated to desserts - a waffle station, macarons, truffles, ice cream chiller, juices, and glass display showcases of pretty little desserts.
The mochi in the garden is just too cute.
The candy wall will surely make eyes pop, for kids and kids at heart alike. You can take some of these home in a little takeaway cup too.
Yeah like this.
But what you shouldn't miss are the chocolate coated pistachios made right there in a machine near the chocolate truffles.
