Marina
Bay Sands’ Epicurean Market is back again! The great thing about it, is that
you get to eat from the best European restaurants without burning a hole in
your wallet!
Taking place from 13-14 August 2016, the Epicurean Market consist of
booths that offer a range of exquisite bites-- from the Lobster Roll and other
Asian American dishes at Adrift by David Myers to sippin’ a glass of lemon
bourbon bulleit at The World Class Bar. You can expect an endless range
of food to indulge it! Here are 5 things to look out for at this year’s
Epicurean Market
1. Adrift by David Myers
Enjoy dishes prepared using fresh California
produce, with Asian inspiration. A must try would be their Lobster Roll($12)!
A perfectly toasted
bun generously filled with fresh juicy lobster coated with wasabi mayo. The
wasabi mayo encompasses the salty juices of the lobster really well and the
crispy bun adds a crunch to the entire experience. This is easily our favourite
dish of the day!
2. Bread
Street Kitchen by Gordon Ramsay
Unfortunately Gordon Ramsay won't be there, but his chefs are equally good! We
tried the most raved about Fish and
Chips($14) as well as the Pork
Slider Burger($12)! The fish batter was really tasty and crispy, though
the meaty part of the fish was a little thin. No doubt their thick cut American
fries were good!
I personally prefered the Pork Slider Burger over the Fish and
Chips. Though they used pork belly, there were very minimal fatty parts. As your
teeth sinks through the soft fluffy burger bun, you will be greeted with a
crispy thin skin and juicy, tender meat. Yum!
3. YardBird
Southern Table & Bar
The classic down-home cuisine of this James Beard Foundation Award
Semi-finalist for “Best New Restaurant South”. We tried the Lewellyn’s Fried Chicken, Watermelon and
Waffles(&12)! Warm fluffy waffles served alongside savoury Fried
Chicken is the best idea ever! After that sinful combination, “healthify” your
meal with a few cubes of juicy watermelons! Keep your eyes peeled as they
will be opening in Singapore next year!
4. Farmer’s
Market
We love fresh food and that’s why Farmer’s market is the best place for you to
shop for groceries! You can get quality vegetables, juicy fruits and
fresh seafood! As you shop, feel free to ask questions and sample the
food! The staff there are extremely friendly!
5. The
World Class Bar
Yep, you heard it right. They call themselves The World Class Bar, aiming to
give their patrons a world class experience. The bartenders were extremely
friendly and helpful. They showed us a list of recommended drinks and when none
of it appeal to us, they suggested customised drinks. We tried the lemon bourbon bulleit ($15) which is
slightly sweet. Their specially curated drinks includes Singleton Tropical
Sour, Tanqua Ten & Tonic and Pimm’s Golden Cup
That's just a glimpse of what’s happening over at the Epicurean Market this
weekend! Besides feasting, there’ll be
many activities to take part in — dance off your calories at the after-parties,
sip on handcrafted cocktails and watch celebrity chef in action at the
Masterclasses!
