I had the Wood Roasted Asparagus Soup. While ED had the House smoke salmon, buffalo mozarella with lemon dressing.
The soup tasted great. It's creamy but not overpowering.

We ordered a bottle of sparkling mineral water as they do not really give you water FOC.
Sparkling Mineral Water cost $8++. A bottle can fill approx 4 glasses. Tasted pretty refreshing :)

Pita bread tasted really great even on its own. Dipped it with some olive oil to enhance the flavour of the herbs in the bread. It complements the soup very well too. I had 2 servings of it

Dun seems to be able to find their set lunch menu online. I think maybe they change the menu periodically

For Main course, I had the Sea Bass and Ed ordered the Steak.
I find the sea bass was a bit fishy. It comes with Jap rice wrapped with boiled cabbage and cut into 2. Looks like sushi to me. but the rice tasted really nice. I expected it to be bland but it's not. Slightly salty and the juiciness of the cabbage complements the rice realy well.
ED had the steak with roasted mushrooms and asparagus. He dun really eat mushroom and this is the first time I see him eat it. He said they mushrooms are so nicely roasted that he can stomach the mushroom taste (for once  ) There's a mixture of shitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, straw mushrooms and button mushrooms. All nicely roasted. The steak was very very tender too (from ED feedback cos i dun take beef)

Lunch is cheaper. If you browse their website, you can see the menu and prices online.

So wat's the total cost for the lunch?
$104 (approx). Discount for UOB card members is only applicable for items ordered from the ala carte menu.
2 set lunches @ $35++/pax = $70++
1 glass of white wine = $14++
1 bottle of sparkling mineral water = $8++ (UOB card discount for this item)
Total $104

Decor of the restaurant. Looks very nice and cosy. We were sitting on very very nice and comfy sofas. As you dine, you can hear very nice Bossa Nova music being played.
I love the ceiling. really pretty

The ambience is really nice... the couch is so cosy too... I tink it would be even more romantic at night when the place is dark and lit by candles.. food is not cheap but it's good... paying for quality and ambience... can spend that once in a while for special occasions ... They have a counter with very pretty gers at the entrance of the restaurant to bring u to your seats.
