Another neighbourhood I frequent a lot is Tiong Bahru simply because my parents live there.
I have been to Open Door Policy twice. I was surprised as it was quite good.
Some dishes to tease your taste buds
Starters:
I liked the starters the best of the three courses in this place.
Tuna Carpaccio
The Tuna Carpaccio is refreshing and zesty. Perfect for Singapore weather. I think it came with a Yuzu type dressing if my memory serves me well.
Beef Tartare
The beef tartare was marinated in truffle oil. Very tasty.
Crispy chicken wings with curry, yogurt and cucumber salad
This is a pretty plate. I think the chicken wings had a sort of tempura like batter to it.
Mains:
While the mains were decent, they were honestly forgettable. Well done but not spectacular.
Beef cheek
The portion for this was a bit small. I don't recommend it unless you are going for a small meal.
Pan seared sea bass with articokes and potatoes
Slow cooked bolognese
Pork Belly with parsnip puree
Dessert:
Dessert was the let down in the three courses.
Lime pannacotta with coconut sago, cashew nuts and mint
I don't know if the flavors and textures work on this one.
Chocolate and pistachio souffle
I think this was the best dessert in this place. It came with a warm creme anglaise if I remember.
Ice cream with brownies
This is a bit too simple and hence a bit of a let down.
This place is really packed so reservations are necessary just in case.
