Discerning tongues can be ensured that only the freshest and most quality ingredients from the farm will land on the plate.

At the end of my experience, I left with my lips still smacking and a belly satiated just right.

Impeccable service at Farm to Plate 

Warm and aesthetically pleasing interior

Chilled Tofu with Roasted Sesame and Ginger Shoyu


The course draws its curtains with a soothing cube of silky toufu sitting in a pool of housemade sesame sauce as its entree. The cooling bland block is flavoured with sesame sauce which I reckon has a hint of fermented beancurd when together in the mouth, gently awakening the tastebuds.

Truffles with Shiitake Dumpling and Crisp Leek


Wrapped by one of the niftiest fingers in dim sum kitchen, the translucent dumpling contains a mix of shiitake mushroom and leek. Although not a favourite of many, Farm to Plate processes the leek to a likeable taste with a pleasant texture. Matched with pumpkin sauce, this dish provides a clean taste that lets you reap the flavour of truffles better.

Winter Vegetables and Spinach with Light Soy Broth

Seasonal vegetables are usually featured because they have used the season to their advantage to grow to their best and therefore, bringing the best qualities to the plate. Sourced from Japan, this sweet combination of pumpkin, snow pea and spinach is bound by light soy broth and a sprinkle of sesame which gives it a pleasant finishing.

Yuba Tofu wrapped Julienne Vegetables with Japanese Taro and Hawthorn Berry

After three saucy dishes, the fourth changes the course with a crispy number which brings fun to the palette. Made of Japanese Taro, the pumpkin shaped sphere bears a delightful clot of pumpkin puree with a hint of sweetness from hawthorn berry which leaves you yearning for more. 

Creamy pumpkin filling


Tamagoyaki Egg Omelette with Daikon Oroshi

Good culinary skills can heighten the worth of the humble egg to another level and you will witness it with this dish at Farm to Plate. The omelette is moist to the core with savoury liquid wetting your lips as you bite into the roll. With a small pile of daikon at the top, the egg is articulated even more.


Spanish Cauliflower with Lotus Root and Seasonal Vegetables

Get a lot of crunch from this dish of Spanish cauliflower, asparagus and sweet lily bulb. Fried lotus root daintily adds an interesting texture while the slight heat of pimenton pleasantly warms the mouth. 


Farfalle Edamame with Fresh Basi Pesto and Pine Nuts

Anchor down the meal with some al dente pasta with the unctuousness of pesto sauce with occasional specks of edamame and pine nuts. The saltiness from the chese also peeks cleverly through the mount of pasta making it simply lip-smaking.


Roasted Black Sesame Ball


The roasted black sesame ball appears to be 'da bomb' among the guests. With savoury and sweet black sesame lava waiting to ooze out as the crispy crust is bitten, guests will be left speechless for this delectable dessert.


Yuzu Konyaku Jelly


Definitely refreshing, konyaku jelly with fragrant yuzu juice lives up to the expectation as a palette cleanser. The red pomelo provides bursts of fruity sensation with each scoop of springy jelly which wraps up the meal beautifully.
