Make the most out of your mealtime with our roundup of timely treats
Dining out in Singapore is a national past time for a reason; there’s always delicious food to look forward to with talented chefs never running out of creative ideas to please our picky palates. This week, we have everything from a revamped Mediterranean menu, collaborative dinners to a four-hands event featuring two of Thailand’s celebrated chefs.
1. The Knolls
Chef de cuisine Ignacio Moreno (who has been with the restaurant for over a year) has overhauled the decade-old menu, which means more sumptuous reasons to head here for a meal. It has a stronger Mediterranean concept now, with a particular focus on Spain, France and Italy.
Drop by for dinner and be treated to appetisers like red fruit gazpacho, or French tomato stuffed with a fruity gelatin gazpacho, and burratina, composed of silky mozzarella cheese perched atop an eggplant and sesame seed relish then decorated with basil leaves (freshly harvested from their herb garden) and five types of tomatoes sourced from France.
Save some space for mains—there’s a lot to choose from. If seafood is what you fancy, the roasted seabass is an elevated version of its former signature where the fish chunk is covered in a citrusy espuma and garnished with peas, beans and a piquant black garlic puree. The slow-cooked iberico pork is a beautiful slice of fatty meat blanketed in a ratatouille sauce and paired with romesco and confit leeks.
