If Chinese cuisine brings to mind the usual suspects like roasts and dim sum, you're not wrong.
But here at Song Garden, there's more than meets the eye.
In the words of Senior Manager Alson Ho, “Nothing placed on the plate cannot be devoured.”
From the astute presentation to the garnishing, the dishes are no doubt creative and flavourful — a modern spin on classic Cantonese dishes.
Situated at the recently launched Mercure Singapore Bugis, the 120-seater contemporary Cantonese restaurant lets guests dine among traditional Chinese furniture and beautiful art pieces.
Here are six interesting dishes to try:
3. Lobster with Pumpkin Purée in hot stone pot, $28
Bubbling in a hot stone pot as it arrives at the table, this light and sweet pumpkin broth is flavoured with lobster stock and thickened with shark cartilage and fish maw – both of which have been slow cooked for 12 to 14 hours. This collagen-rich soup is filled with chunky pieces of lobster and served with a black garlic bread stick, which tastes good even on its own.
