Housed inwards a century erstwhile colonial edifice (built 1910), nestled inwards the lush greenery of Botanic gardens, the eating theatre exudes timeless elegance too grace. Despite beingness an erstwhile building, the interior is fully air-conditioned too tastefully decorated amongst modern furnishing.
The dining expanse is located at the instant floor, nosotros had the veranda seating expanse amongst a fantastic thought of the garden.
Tiny stools were provided for our bags, ane each for every bag. Table settings had the lovely botanical theme, cheque out the 'rocky' tabular array salt container!
For lunch, they offering 3 Courses for $48++ too 4 Courses for $58++. There are iii dish choices inwards each category (Starter, Main & Dessert). For iv Course meals, nosotros larn to pick two starter dishes along amongst a mind too a dessert.
To commencement things off, nosotros were served freshly baked breads too butter. The warm breads were amazingly soft amongst a crispy crust, really nice.
The restaurant's dining concept of Gastro-Botanica, incorporates seasonal plants too herbs into their dishes, too presenting them artfully decorated similar mini gardens on plates. It's both a feast to the eyes too also to the cameras.

Cured duck, hazelnut, burnt orange, arugula, dear mustard coulis
Japanese Kingfish Tartare
Fennel, grapefruit, mentaiko, basil, home-made cracker
Soft trounce Crab Tempura

It took us quite a spell to hold off for these dishes, too nosotros knew why when nosotros tasted them. They were made from scratch amongst keen attending to details of every gene used inwards the dishes. The soft trounce crabs were utterly crispy too low-cal that it felt similar it simply left the fryer a instant ago. Needless to say, all iii starters were marvellous!

Jerusalem artichoke, champignon, ratte potato
Atlantic Cod
Savoy cabbage, smoked bacon, shellfish emulsion

Everything almost this eatery was impeccable, the food, the ambience too the service. We were offered a ride inwards the buggy to the tourist pump to grab a cab on a rainy day. And, for a decent luncheon similar this one, it did non actually intermission our banks. They create accept pricier options for the deep pocket patrons but nosotros knew it'll live worth every cent paid. Definitely deserving of their newly awarded Michelin star!
