Fans of celebrity chef Susur Lee’s can sample his inventive creations this coming week when he’s in town for a short visit. The restaurant’s Senior Executive Chef, Ken Ling and his brigade of chefs are at hand to prepare the meals using premium ingredients such as oysters, wagyu beef, and shark’s fin among others.
Two six-course tasting menus are available from 26 to 31 July. At $120++ per person or $190++ per person (with wine pairing), you get to savour dishes such as crispy Peking duck skin; braised wagyu beef with garlic greens as well as comforting oven-baked rice with juicy crab claw. The roast fillet of marble goby served with delicious ‘sha cha’ sauce made of a blend of chilli, dried shrimp and hints of five spice powder is ultra satisfying. Asparagus and black fungus lend extra crunch to the dish, and a sprinkling of wolfberries some delicate sweetness. Susur’s ‘Special Dessert’ is a sublime surprise. A quenelle of vanilla ice cream is coated with crispy red rice puffs and crushed pistachio, then encircled with raspberry, soft aloe vera cubes, green apple gello and green apple juice. A refreshing delight packed with heaps of appealing textures.
The second menu is priced at $160++ per person or $260++ per person (with wine pairing). Start with the trio of fresh Canadian oysters – each plump morsel is steamed and topped with minced garlic; XO sauce; and black bean sauce. Enjoy this with exquisite Bruno Paillard Premier Cuvee Rosé. This will be followed by a decadent braised fresh superior shark’s fin with abalone jus perfectly matched with Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumes, Roux Pere & Fils, Cotes de Beaune. Besides those, you will also get to sample braised duck breast with white asparagus and half tail lobster with chilli sauce as well as steamed mee sua with lamb rack and pork ribs.The menus are meant for minimum two persons and only available during this period.
