Quandoo’s Food Trail Quandoo 美食之旅

Quandoo 6

I went on a culinary trail to 4 of Singapore’s hottest and newest restaurants at the invitation of Quandoo, world’s fastest growing online restaurant reservation platform. Launched in Singapore in end-2014, Quandoo has seated over 1.5 million diners in Singapore and has grown a network of over 720 bookable restaurants – making it the number one online restaurant reservation platform in Singapore within 12 months.

In celebration of this milestone, my group of 10 invited guests got to experience some of the hottest dining venues and best menus rated by Quandoo users.

Quandoo Food Trail

The evening kicked off at Bar-A-Thym (Q-Awards Best Newcomers of 2015 winner), with a welcome address by Quandoo Singapore Managing Director, Mr Konrad Richter. Award-winning Chef Francois Mermilliod served the first course.

Appetiser : Ceviche of yellow fin tuna, apple-fennel salad, yuzu ponzu dressing ($24++)

Appetizing.... bursting with vibrant flavours, the perfect little tongue teaser before a main course.

Thrilled to see two vintage Volkwagen vans waiting for us when we were leaving for the next restaurant. The Volkwagen Kombi rides throughout the food trail starting from the first restaurant to the last restaurant were sponsored by Kombi Rocks. We were offered a choice of packed Thai Iced tea or Lemongrass tea, and a packet of curry peanuts on board.

Our second stop was Golden Peony at Conrad Centennial Singapore.

Mains : Chef Ku Keung’s Signature Trio Platter
Steamed lobster meat on egg soufflé served with fish rose ($18++)
Swan pastry filled with chicken and foie gras ($9.80++)
Roast Peking duck, parma ham, pineapple and crispy beancurd skin rolled with homemade crepes ($14++)

We were told this platter was served to Chinese President Xi JinPing when he visited Singapore.

Absolutely love the swan pastry! The pastry was flaky and delicious, looking forward to tasting Chef Ku's dim sum lunch soon.

Our third course was at The Clan Restaurant (Q-Awards Most Popular Restaurant of 2015 winner).

Our fourth and last course at Laurent Bernard Chocolatier.

Feminity – raspberry dome, milk chocolate ($10.50++)

Chef Laurent Bernard's cakes, made with passion using the finest ingredients, were too pretty to eat. So sweet of him to prepare a goody bag for each of us, there were samples of his macarons and signature chocolates.
