tired of jade food, decided to walk to Raffles City for dinner.

stopped by Esplanade & decided to try jiak modern tze char on 29.11.2021.^^

ordered the small $22 crayfish squidink beehoon which came with a free side dish..we picked minced chicken eggplants

not expecting much so very pleasantly surprised..

the beehoon squidink flavours superb ..very good indeed…& again surprisingly 3 large crayfish so 6 halves! and very fresh bouncy sweet..an excellent dish by any standard!!

the complimentary side dish minced chicken eggplant was good standard too..

excellent meal for 2pax for $22++

had great set lunch @ stellar at one altitude on 29.11.2021.^^

the view if course to die for!

& food was excellent!

the sour dough butter & EVO were good..

the amuse bouche was great..I think I can make this like a nicely garlic flavoured mash somewhat less viscous like gazpacho

the smoked duck salad was good dish but a bit let down as we asked server if it was prepared by restaurant..he said yes..it tasted artificial just like the ready made ones ..perhaps that is the method of preparation..I will try to do this see if different result

every table was feasting on the tiger prawns capellini..

it was really good, with a very flavourful cheesy taste to the angelhair..I will try to make this soon..

the tiger prawns were done well..nothing special though..I do that all the time & aunty bes can do too..

the iberico pork collar was another excellent dish..including the pak Choy sides..

dessert was good standard, and restaurant offered a complimentary chocolate mousse cake for special event.
