The signature dishes include a creative twist on Surf and Turf pairing Black Angus tenderloin with handmade rock lobster tortellini as well as mouth-watering Wagyu beef short ribs braised for 24 hours and garnished with roasted butternut squash and wasabi spinach sauce.

For dessert, Chef Valentin has created a delectable Melting Sphere of dark chocolate, thyme- flavoured mousse and hot chocolate sauce.
