芳香酒店 - 绿洲

The sliced fish bee hoon (rice vermicelli) comes in a flavourful, milky fish stock, with fried garlic bits for extra fragrance and crunch. Also worth trying are the tom yam soup, seafood soup and fried fish head bee hoon.

Their famous Hokkien mee is made with rice vermicelli and yellow egg noodles, which are topped with prawns and squid for that umami flavour – even better with a helping of spicy homemade chilli sauce.

Haute cuisine is increasingly about the chef embracing creative freedom and dictating the whole experience. At the longstanding, singularly sophisticated and world-renowned Les Amis, the choice is yours. The prix-fixe menus present a wide range of modern French classics with occasional Asian twists, in which simple ingredient combinations and seasoning highlight the natural flavours. Consider booking the chef's table for an intimate experience.

The entrance to this intimate restaurant in a refurbished colonial house is flanked by an imposing display of wine bottles, including many interesting Italian vintages. The interior is elegantly furnished with refined contemporary charm. They serve set menus comprising impeccably executed dishes. Signatures include house-made tagliatelle with freshly shaved and intensely aromatic white truffle. Wine list comes with options of Italian labels, natural wine and whisky flyer.

This joint specialises in noodle soup with wontons and char siu – the springy noodles are shipped from Hong Kong; the lightly charred pork has layers of fat and lean meat. For extra texture and flavour, order shredded abalone on top.

The owner makes the fish balls by hand to ensure they are springy and bursting with umami. Blanched noodles tossed in chilli sauce with crispy cracklings are the perfect companion to the fish ball soup.

Choose between blanched rice noodles tossed in a thick gravy, or soup noodles in a deeply flavourful ox bone broth. Then top with sliced beef, beef tripe, tendon, beef balls, or a combination.
