The Tastings Room @ Marina Square

Second visit to The Tastings Room. Unlike my first visit, today the restaurant was 90% full, no doubt due to their Groupon offer.

Norwegian Salmon Tartare with 'Sous Vide' Egg & Caviar, $18.90

This was really a delightful starter. For one thing, the egg yolk definitely helped to make the dish more aesthetically pleasant, but though it looked very runny, I still found it a little too cooked. But the salmon was really good, and it was heavily spiced and topped with lumpfish caviar. Definitely recommended!

Saffron Seafood Risotto, $24.90

Beneath the cheesy risotto lies some squid, prawns, and scallops, which were all good but not fantastic. The risotto was quite all right, but I didn't really like the fact that they added some lemon juice to it. Prego's organic risotto is currently still the best, in my opinion.
