Overall, the dishes I had at FOC Restaurant are very good. Strong flavours in general, coupled with a vibrant dining vibe.
Their broths taste very clean and are very flavorful – there’s so much umami in there and you can tell it’s naturally built-in, without any artificial stuff.
a great place to hang out over some bar bites and small eats with some cocktails at the table without having to purposely dress up for the occasion.
Having had a meal at Bacchanalia before the revamp when they already had one Michelin Star, I’d say they might be in the running for a 2nd star.
The revamp of the space at Bacchanalia is a refreshing change for me. I like that the space is better designed where you can enjoy different dining ambience based on your mood. The dishes are generally good, though the hefty price tag will be a serious consideration to return.
Despite not imposing a service charge, Long Qing’s service is more on point that its mass-brand competitors.
Another area I thought could have been more polished was the narrative. Not that the service staff was any bad, but some were more engaging and looked sincere when introducing the dishes, whereas others who rushed through looked like they treated it as part of their daily job.
Here's a cafe that's relatively off the grid - at least by today's standards where information about any and every business is readily available online. When it first opened its doors, RONIN Cafe was one of those "hidden finds" with little to no reviews, and no website or social media presence to...
All in all, a really great place for a close-enough South American experience. Place was not too crowded on a weekday evening, and service was impeccable and warm.
The restaurant's just as buzzy, and crazy popular as before, so be sure to make reservations before going down.
