during covid circuit breaker (CB), we ordered from chef gabriel lee 3 times. we really like his food. now that we can dine in up to 5pax, we invite close friends to enjoy chef’s food together, support our local culinary talents,a dn have a great evening together.
also, chef gabriel inspired me to try to replicate his dishes like alio olio and lobster pasta…and i do them pretty good now..though no comparison…and also to revisit some dishes like roast pork…which i do very well now!
had very nice dinner with busy good friend & his wife @ 8picure on 3.7.2020.^^
dishes were as usual, exceptional (haha! oxymoron).
this a close friend couple. he very busy person so i don’t ask him out often. this evening we had a really great time.
friend and his wife liked especially the lobster pasta.
wife and i shared a uni pasta. overall we prefer the lobster pasta to uni pasta…both pasta are of course really good!
and friend’s wife loved the ohmi A5 wagyu…she commented that was the best!
my friend though prefer not to take beef…he took one piece and let us shared the other pieces…so we added a cod for him..
and chef gabriel lee’s tiramisu is the best we had anywhere.

from start of circuit break (CB) on 3.4.2020, i have been making and delivering 1 weekly dinner to my brother.

in turn my brother also deliver 1 weekly dinner to my place.

this evening i decided to make all peranakan dishes.

chilli ikan batang was made special by the chilli. very tasty chilli.

will write up a recipe for the chilli. subsequently i did for my family dinner and everyone loved it too.

beef rendang & assam pork rib were excellent dishes.

belly pork texture was perfect the pongteh sauce can be improved.

chap chye was good with the fermented bean curd flavours and just right texture for cabbage, cloud fungus and tanhoon.
