Well-honed European techniques are put to use in the display kitchen to turn the best ingredients from around the world into creative, contemporary works of art. There is just one eight-course tasting menu and it changes bi-monthly, with a "best of" menu at the end of each year. Two wine pairing options are available at different price points. The wine list is well curated and the knowledgeable sommelier has some great tips for you.

As in other branches of this Singapore-based chain, the kitchen team never fails to deliver quality dishes thanks to inspired insights and honed skills. The must-try black pepper mud crab exudes an intoxicating aroma and seafood flavour, while double-boiled fish maw soup with shark bones warms the heart and soul. Their dim sum lunch is to die for – deftly crafted translucent rice noodle rolls and tofu skin rolls stuffed with shrimps and chives.

This restaurant on the same premises as a furniture shop and a Japanese tearoom is helmed by the experienced Chef Fai. The kitchen delivers refined Chaozhou dishes, with menus tailored to availability of ingredients, as well as guests' budget and preferences after reservations are made via the texting app. The deep-fried Puning tofu stuffed with minced shrimp and chives is golden and aromatic, and best enjoyed with the boneless crucian carp congee.

The location at the top of the Grand Lisboa Hotel makes for breathtaking views and is a terrific setting for the restaurant's renowned contemporary French cuisine. Whether as part of the set menu or à la carte, the dishes are intricate, beautifully plated and boast an array of intense flavours. The stunning dessert trolley provides a fitting finale, and the wine list is one of the best in Asia.

Besides river views and stunning murals, Hongtu Hall is prized for its exquisitely crafted dim sum ranging from the classics to novel creations, as well as velvety congee and juicy roast meats. Make sure to try their shrimp dumplings and shrimp shaomai. Tableside tea service is also a nice touch. The restaurant is always busy during opening hours and reservations are accepted for guests staying in the hotel only. Other customers have to simply join the queue.
