Review Date: 21 Feb 2010
Blk 7 Dempsey Road, #01-04 , Singapore
Wat's e specialty?

As you know.. Singapore has tonnes of food everywhere. Dempsey is saturated with all sorts of cuisine. I suggest this place after a friend recommended to try it as it was opened by another friend's friend. Talk about 6 degrees of separation..

We went on Saturday night just before 7pm and the restaurant is near empty save for 1 chinese family and 1 couple who was later joined by another couple.

We were seated inside and we noticed that there is only set menus. 2 course at $48++ and 3 course at $58++. The menu was a little confusing as we didn't understand what (+10 supplement) meant.

Example; Foie gras xxxxx (+10 supplement)

but I quickly catch on and told my beau that it probably means we have to top up money for the choice of appetizer.

The mains also have (+20 supplement) for waygu beef etc..

All in all the service is fantastic, the food is good. However, this restaurant doesn't give me the 'A~HA' moment.. in which the food blows my mind away or a particular dish stands out from the rest. You know with sooooo many restaurants around.. I need a slight edge in the food to remind me that this place exist. You know.. like a signature dish or a wow factor.. sadly this restaurant doesn't have any.

It is a pity as there is nothing to complain about.. just maybe I'm trying to look for something more.
