Saint Pierre Singapore, Central Mall

Saint Pierre Singapore

Saint Pierre Restaurant at Central Mall has always make headlines in the local food scene. I’m sure no one will disagree that this fine dining establishment is one of the best restaurants in Singapore.

I had the chance to visit Saint Pierre during a recent Singha Beer launch where they commissioned celebrity chef Emannuel Stroobant to create a special menu to show that beer can be enjoyed with fine cuisine.

Saint Pierre Salad

Imagine my excitement when I saw the North sea grey shrimp salad. It was like a piece of art and all of us did not have any idea how to start with it. The intriguing thousand island ice cream caught our attention when we saw it on the menu.

Ice cream with salad? Who will have thought of it! Frozen thousand island dressing that was presented in an ice cream form, retaining every hint of the salad dressing. This is Chef Emmanuel Stroobant’s ingenious idea of pairing savory ice cream with salad.

Saint Pierre Scallop Mousse

Oh my god, I’m sorry to do this to you, but the scallop was really good! Under normal circumstances, I’m not much of a scallop person. Even though I eat them like everyone else, I’d not particularly crave for them.

We can be good friends, but we will never be lovers.

So it came to a surprise when I actually fell for the Singha jelly with lemongrass infused scallop mousse and wild herb salad. Pan-seared to golden brown, the plump and meaty scallop was a scallop that didn’t taste like one!

Flourless Chocolate Belgian Cake

Covered with a smooth, and intense layer of dark chocolate, the Caramelized banana crusted Flour-less Belgian chocolate cake came with the interesting coconut sorbet. The caramelized banana added a twist from the usual Belgian flour-less chocolate cake. So simple, yet so good!

SIngha Beer

Singha beer is light and refreshing, and it’s certainly very different from the usual beers that I’ve before. I had a great afternoon at the Singha Beer event with Aromacookery, Camemberu, the Hungrycow, and TheLittleTeochew.

I know beer taste great with fried food or burgers, the question is: will you consider trying beer with fine cuisine?

    I am addicted to your blog. I look at the amazing pictures, look at the bag of frosted flakes I’m eating out of, hate my life a little more, and then scroll for more pictures.

    Thanks for all your work. But yeah, you should be sorry. This is torture!!! :D
