Last year, I had attended the very first SAVOUR event in
Singapore and was blown away with the food and the things to buy! And this
year, I MUST and attended SAVOUR again! This time round – I managed to get in
for Friday dinner and Saturday lunch!
Then here comes the Stellar Grill which is always a long
queue when we are there. They offer a Stellar Grill platter where you can taste
3 different types of meat – Roast Pork (so juicy and crispy – Ansley’s
favourite!), Braised Short Rib (so flavorful) and Grill Beef (so tender)!
At the same store from Chef Emmanuel Stroobant, we also ordered
a platter which consists of two different dishes.
There’s too much food, and we couldn’t try every single one
of them. However, we managed to snap some foodie pictures.
Other than eating, there are also classes available for the
guests. And we only managed to attend the class conducted by Nespresso and we
got caffeine high after fives cups of espresso from the class.
吃饱喝足! A super fantastic weekend! Darling, Ansley and I
can’t wait for next year’s SAVOUR 2015!
More SAVOUR Dollars and can EAT MORE! Yummy…. Yummy….
Yummy….
There is this food truck outside of SAVOUR event on Friday
evening, called The Travelling Cow! They will be located at Promontory for the
whole month of March. I didn’t manage to take a clear picture of the burger
that we bought – Wagyu Beef Burger – Ansley loves this! (That’s why can’t take
a clear picture! He was literally trying to snatch!)
But we managed to find their signature on Facebook – Ramen Sliced
Wagyu Beef Burger. And luckily, we tabao the Ramen Wagyu Beef Burger home, it
was super delicious! I considered the burger my favorite dish for the night! The
ramen remains crispy even though we brought it home to consume. The sweet mayo
sauce for the burger is superb! I hope I can get a bite of it again… Yum….
Yum….
We also had Crab Linguine. Oh my Gosh! It is mouthful after
mouthful of crab! My mouth is empower by the crabby taste, this is definitely
not one crappy dish!
We tried Éclair d’ Escargots too. This is something that I
wanted to try while I was doing my research on the internet as it is so
interesting to have Éclair in a savory form. However, it is overly savory, TOO
SALTY, so I was pretty disappointed after my first bite!
Fortunately…. The dessert ends our day on a good note! Mao
Tai has a very interesting taste and a very nice fragrance. It is a mixture of
Calamansi, Kaffir Lime, Lemon and Preserved Kumquat, and you can find popcorns
in it too and Mao Tai foam. This East meets West concept is very refreshing and
quenching in such a hot weather.
It was a great Friday night and looking forward for
Saturday’s lunch! Too bad, didn’t take much pictures for Friday night except on
my cutie boy!
Despite the weather is super hot on Saturday, but it is also
another fruitful day for food! We managed to get some pocket recommendation
from the staffs the night before, so not much time are wasted in thinking what
to get!
Foie Gras Terrine Tempura is the highly recommended dish!
And after tasting it, it became my favourite for the day! The tempura crust is
very fragile, it breaks when you gently bite on it and the Foie Gras melts in
the mouth. You can have it plain or you can dipped on the lobster mayonnaise
which is not too much!
This is a perfect dish in such a hot and sunny day – Low
Temperature Prime U.S. Beef Rib Eye! Very interesting to serve beef in a salad
form! Cooling and refreshing with the asparagus and carrot served together!
The other dish is Organic Lamb Short Ribs Crusted with Five
Spices. I’m okay with it only! Not much of a WOW factor! So can skipped!
I picked a beautiful looking dish from a Michelin chef -- Crispy Roll of Barramundi! Looks
like a dessert, but it is not. It is pastry rolled with some fish in it, served
with mashed potatoes and fruits. Other than the colours are popping, the taste
did not really popped!
Molecular “Xiao Long Bao” is not something new to me! I had
this last year at SAVOUR, and just have to get one this year again! It’s the
gastronomy food – no meat inside, no vinegar and ginger at the side. But when
the skin burst, you can taste meat, vinegar and ginger in the liquid.
Unbelievable sensory experience! THUMBS
UP!
Another recommendation by the staff is Triple Cheese Truffle
Toastie. Simple comfort food that brings lots of comfort! The bun is soft in
the inside and crisp on the outside! Cheese and truffle never goes wrong! TOTAL
CLASSIC!
Tentative end with Apple Mousse. To me, it is a bit too
sweet, so I didn’t really enjoy myself!
Our final ending Sashimi and grilled Wagyu Beef before we
head home! Familiar food, but of super good quality! Just eat it the natural
way! No seasoning required!
