Chinatown & the CBD


It's all about French food with a delicate Asian twist at this sleek, one Michelin star restaurant in trendy Keong Saik Rd. The open kitchen runs nearly the length of this very long and narrow space, with the high stools positioned so guests have front-row seats as chefs create delectable masterpieces. The evolutionary menu changes with the seasons.
