Calling All Carnivores: The Best of Westholme Waygu Is Now At Culina
Bred on pristine Australian pastures, it’s no wonder Westholme wagyu is famed for its rich, complex textures and flavours. Get your cut of Westholme wagyu over at Culina Bistro, with three distinct dishes. The Pot-Au-Feu de Westholme (S$38++) features a flavourful oxtail, short rib, and tri-tip slow-braised in a fragrant stock with vegetables. For those who prefer a melt-in-your-mouth experience, the soft and tender Westholme Wagyu Beef Tongue (S$32++) is ideal. Meanwhile, the slow-cooked medium-rare Westholme Côte de BÅ“uf (S$250++) is a good choice for those who are truly looking to indulge.
Culina Bistro is located at Block 15, Dempsey Road, Singapore 249675, p. +65 6854 6168. Open daily 9.00am-10.00pm.
Shangri-La Singapore’s The Line Brings On The Seafood Splash
Seafood boils are all the hype right now. In case you haven’t had a chance to get your hands dirty with the scrumptious sauces of the Louisiana-inspired dish, Shangri-La’s The Line has got you covered. Alongside their signature buffets, the restaurant is spicing up its menu with Seafood Boils (S$68++ per serving). While you might expect the Boston Lobster or the Sri Lankan Crab to hog the spotlight, the true stars of the seafood boil are their five in-house sauces. The classic Louisiana Cajun is a favourite for a reason, but if you’re a little more adventurous, give the spice-rich Sichuan Mala a try.
The Line, Shangri-La is located at 22 Orange Grove Rd, Lower Lobby, Tower Wing, Singapore 258350, p. +65 6213 4398. Open Mon-Sun 6.00pm – 9.30pm and Fri-Sun 12.30pm-2.30pm. The Seafood Splash is only available for dinner on Sun-Wed from 7 September onwards.
