Overview

If dining in Old World charm tickles your fancy, this is the place to try. Variously known as the Main Dining Room (1899) and the Elizabethan Grill (1950's), the present name was bestowed about a decade ago. Sample French cuisine amidst the grand ambience of full-length drapes, chandeliers and silverware. Recommended dishes are the smoked Atlantic salmon, and the best-end and rack of suckling pig. The wine list includes more than 600 types of wine. Service is impeccable and the staff knowledgeable, hardly surprising, as the restaurant is on the itinerary of ministers and visiting heads of state.

    The set lunch is good value for money. However, the a la carte menu is overpriced. I had the panfried turbot for $80 and it was overcooked and tough! At that price I expected nothing less than perfection. But for the fact that I was with a guest and didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable, I would have sent the thing back! The foie gras terrine was OK, nothing exceptional. However, I did like the almond souffle although it was a little too sweet. Nice wines but overpriced. Service is spotty and can be improved -- there were only three tables with diners when we were there (including ours) and the waiter brought me the wrong dessert. Apart from the sommelier and maitre d, the other staff had a less- than-fluent command of English. Not what I would expect in a 5-star restaurant in Singapore!
