At the far end of the Suntec City lies a gem of a restaurant in Bistro 1855. In collaboration with its sister 1855 the bottle shop, the restaurant churns out delectable cuisine to pair with its 500 label strong, of fine wines.
The restaurant is just beside the exit of Promenade mrt station and is popular with the salarymen looking for a tipple after a long days of work,
The restaurant is popular and they have a live band come in at around 830pm to belt out a few tunes to entertain the crowd.
Ordering is done via a ipad which is comfortable and easy to use. You can of course request for some human touch and check with the friendly service staff for recommendations.
The sister retail outlet has a strong arsenal of wines to choose from to accompany your dinner.
We went with the housepour which were going for $6 a pop during the happy hour which was an awesome deal. The wines were not too shabby and provided very decent value.
The missus went with the snapper loin which was not only aesthetically pleasing but also welcoming for the palate. The fish is fresh and nicely pan fried and combine well with the bed of hollandaise sauce that normally goes with eggs. Very interesting combination which we absolutely adore.
I had the Serranao pork check which was delightfully tender. The brown sauce was quite good and the strong taste of the mint provided an interesting experience. The cut of the meat was not the biggest and may leave diners longing for more.
The restaurant also has awesome lunches with main courses that comes with a salad bar buffet which will be something we will have to try out one day! Happy hour for drinks start from 12 - 8pm so head down early! Entertainer app users enjoy 1 for 1 main courses!!!
