Department Lunch @ Restaurant Ember

My boss wanted to buy us lunch, one of the criteria is the place has to be close to office, and the most important criteria, it cannot be too expensive.  So we decided on Ember at Keong Saik Road, which serve delicious and reasonably price 3 courses set lunch.

Bread to start the meal.  Served warm, though nothing great, good enough to line the stomach.

Starter:  Scallops.  Big and succulent. 

There are 2 different foie gras that you can choose from  I am not a big fan of foie gras.
This is: Roasted and Poached Foie Gras with Mirin, Shoyu, and Shiitake, though i think that the mushroom taste better than the foie gras.

Another version of the foie gras:  Pan-seared Foie Gras with Caramelized Apples and Clove, Port and Raspberry Glaze.  The apple give the oily fatty foie gras a refreshing taste.

Deep-fried Soft Shell Crab with Sweet Wasabi Aioli

Mushroom Soup

Here comes the main:
Crispy Duck Leg Confit with New Potatoes, Caramelized Onion-thyme Jus
Crispy enough, but i still prefer the one at Black Sheep.


12-hour Cooked Pork Belly with Savoy Cabbage, Apple Puree & Spiced Calvados Sauce- Close up of the pork.

Marinated Cod with Black Miso, Sweet Peas and Herbed Potatoes:

Warm Valrhona Chocolate Fondant with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.  One of the best in town.  The chocolate really oozed out from the cake! 



 Frozen Nougat with Seasonal Berries

Included in the set lunch is coffee/tea.  Overall is a good value set lunch.  Be there early so that the food does not run out.
