We tried some of their recommended Cocktails made with premium liquor.

Regular Martini : made with gin and vermouth, and garnished with olives

Lychee Martini : Rum, Lychee Liqueur, Gewürztraminer, Sugar

Knock on Wood : Hennessy VSOP, Maraschino Cherries, Sugar, Chocolate Bitters

After some pre-dinner drinks, we had the Six Course CHEF’S TASTING MENU (SUMMER 2017 ).

One thing worth mentioning is the bread, its crispy and texture similar to French croissant. Very delicious.

First Course – Amuse-Bouche

Amuse-bouches are different from appetizers in that they are not ordered from a menu by patrons but are served according to the chef’s selection alone. These, often accompanied by a complementing wine, are served both to prepare the guest for the meal and to offer a glimpse into the chef’s approach to the art of cuisine.

Some Guy de Chassey Champagne, Grand Cru – Pinot Noir & Chardonnay to open up the palate.  

Second Course

Duo of Japanese Hamo, Pike Conger Eel served two ways. 

Scottish Razor Clam, Cavia Ama Ebi Sorrel

Comparing these two, I would prefer the Pike Conger Eel because of the ways it was served. One was deep fried and the other in soup.

FROM VEGETARIAN MENU

JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE, Velouté, Summer Truffle, Herbed Oil

A velouté sauce is one of the five sauces of French cuisine that were designated the five “mother sauces” by Auguste Escoffier in the 19th century along with espagnole, tomato, béchamel and hollandaise, which was a simplification of the “Sauce Carême” list of Marie-Antoine Carême.

Le Bourgogne Chanson Pinot Noir 2014

Fourth Course

American Pigeon, Ala Plancha, Vanilla scented Parsnip Puree, Muscat & Pigeon Jus

Kuamoto A4 Wagyu Beef,  Langoustine, Asparagus, Uni Emulsion

I would recommend the Kuamoto A4 Wagyu Beef because this is a specialty at ME@OUE.

We noticed one of CHEF KENTARO’s famous dish is made available here and we couldn’t resist, we ordered it to go with premium Japanese rice.

2 Michelin Star CHEF KENTARO MAPO TOFU | 麻婆豆腐 Japanese Tofu , Minced Pork, Homemade Szechuan Pepper Chilli Sauce

This dish is not included in the Chef’s tasting menu and I recommend guests to order this separately, its worth the wait because when you take it with the premium rice, it just blend so well. Authentic spiciness with silky tofu.

Me@OUE is, today, the only stand-alone restaurant that has the privilege of treating its diners to the caviar of meat – Kumamoto beef, from the picturesque island of Kyushu, the most southwesterly island of Japan.

Kumamoto wagyu is celebrated for its perfect marbling as the meat is from one of the few, if not the only, free-grazing cattle in the whole of Japan. Following months of grazing on rich grass bursting with minerals from the ground and the surrounding ocean, the result is perfect streaks of fats and red meat cascading with distinct sweet flavour.

Making it even more special for the Chef is having access to the entire animal and the freedom to use the meat that best suits his three kitchens and complements the daily supply of fresh produce.
