Privé
Grill is part of Privé
Group multi-concept F&B lifestyle venue located on the only
Singapore private island – Keppel Island. This venue consist of
Privé
Cafe, Privé Waterfront Bar and Privé Grill. Each of the
establishment cater for different dining and entertainment
experience.
For the follower of
Chubbybotakkoala.com, you might know that it has been a tradition for
us to celebrate our special occasion in a restaurant renowned for
their steak. This time around, Privé
Grill gets our pick.
Driving
in to Keppel Island created a unique experience by itself, especially
when you pass Keppel Bay Vista, with a stunning view of Singapore
waterfront. The Privé F&B venue is located in the Marina at
Keppel Bay main drop off point. Just let the service staff beside the
Privé cafe know that you are going to the Privé Grill, they will
lead the way.
The
dining area is set in a modern fine dining setting. White table
clothes, clean setting, dimmed lights with romantic candle on the
tables. A excellent environment to dine for those special or romantic
occasions.
At
the beginning, we were served sweet potato chips, followed by bread
basket after the service staff took our order. A plus point about
this place, they have our favourite drinks, Lemon Lime and Bitters
($8) which really liven up our mood.

Prior our appetizer, we were
served Amuse-bouche of Ricotta
Cheese Moose bruschetta. This single bit size
appetizer really opens up our palate before the actual appetizer
came. No wonder, Amuse-bouche is also known as mouth amuser.

Next
come the Oxtail Turmeric Soup ($14). Cooked with celery and
coriander, the taste is slightly subtle, clean infused with the
oxtail flavour. Maybe we are used to the Indonesian version, also
known as Sup Buntut, which have strong presence of spices we find
this version a little bland.

For the steak, we have NZ Savannah
Angus Ribeye 340g ($58) and U.S. Creekstone Angus Eye of the Ribeye
($58). Both cuts suppose to be renowned for its tenderness, marbling
and rich texture. Both cooked to medium rare. We both share half of
each steak equally and our verdict, the NZ Savannah Angus Ribeye gets
our vote. The NZ steak is more tender, juicy and succulent compare to
its US counterpart. The consistency across the steak is just amazing,
it almost melts in your mouth. Yummyyyy!!!!

We were not sure what sauce to
choose from, luckily Privé
Grill is generous enough to let us try all the four sauces. Our vote
goes to Privé signature steak sauce. We find that it is best sauce
to accompanied the steak, according to our taste buds.

For the sides, we had Duck Fat
Fries ($12) served Truffle Mayonnaise and Grilled asparagus ($8) with
Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The fries is thick but has a nice crispiness
into it. Rich in flavour and goes well with truffle mayonnaise. It
will be better if they coated the fries with truffle oil though. The
asparagus is fresh, crunchy with smoky flavour from the grill.

Trying something different for
desserts, Basil Crepes with bananas ($12) got our pick. Served with
honeycomb, caramel sauce and vanilla Bean Ice Cream. The dessert is
very creative and well thought off, all ingredients combined well
together and has a nice sweetness to it. Unfortunately we find the
basil crepe is too thick and we are unable to taste any basil in the
crepe. So we end up finishing the rest except for the crepes.

The service here is excellent. The
service staff is friendly and very accommodating. Worthy of a fine
dining experience. Another plus point, after you settle your bill,
they even send you home with a slice of fruit cake FOC for your snack
at home.
Overall, we are truly impressed
with the overall dining experience in this restaurant. Beautiful
atmosphere and service, without filling much pinch on your pocket. We
really look forward for our next visit. Cheers!!!
