We are proud to introduce Green—our newest tasting menu. This menu is a celebration of renewal, capturing the energy of Spring as it awakens with new life. A menu inspired by the season’s vibrancy through a singular lens: the colour that defines life itself. Ingredients at their peak—fresh from the soil, the forest, and the ocean—bring bright, fresh to the table. Each dish reflects this moment of growth and abundance, shaping a menu that feels vibrant, alive, and deeply connected to its origins. As you move through the menu, you’ll experience a progression of flavors that highlight the ingredients we love most this time of year. Each course is a reflection of how these elements come together—connected by the landscapes they come from and the season that brings them to life.

Amazing meal. Well deserving of a ⭐️. The ‘Forest Elixer’ course was for me a stand out. As well as the ‘Fire Morels’ (with a truffle add on). My dining companions voted for the ‘Lamb’ course. But we all decided that there are no wrong answers when deciding your favourite bite. I ordered 3 mocktails from the bar, and had 3 different and unique drinks. Fantastic! Only point I’d like to make is PLEASE design a mocktail/tea/non-alcoholic pairing.

The entire dinner experience wasn’t as expected as it supposed to be as Michelin guide restaurant. The server first bring out the bread at the wrong time as the server who placed our order said the bread would come at a later time with the pairing dishes. Secondly, both of the drinks we order doesn’t taste good however this could be subjective. Lastly our dessert came to the table without the proper presentation. I asked the server why doesn’t it look like the picture and he took away and came back with the proper presentation without any explanation which I think it was unprofessional.

Great experience! My friend and I treated ourselves for our birthdays and it was well worth it! We had the tasting menu which had some uniquely delicious plates. I highly recommend it! The restaurant is fairly casual, so no need to dress up for it either. A nice relaxed change for fine dining.

Delicious food and great ambiance. Not accommodating for food allergies, which can be awkward on a sharing menu.
