Outback Steakhouse @Orchard Gateway |
In August 2017, Outback Steakhouse Singapore launched a new menu that
featured the 22 fresh and bold flavours that you will surely love, in
addition to the perennial favourites.
Our last visit to Outback Steakhouse was at their Millenia Walk
outlet. The full review is available here.
The View from the restaurant |
Accroding to the tradition in Outback Steakhouse, Honey Wheat Bushman
Bread is served at the start of the meal It has a crisp crust,
a touch of sweetness with a hint of cocoa. Served with their
signature mix of their butter, that will definitely wake up your
appetite.

Appetizer
Platter ($19.90) - A combination of Kookaburra Wings, Lemon Butter
Calamari and Crispy Volcano Shirmps. We asked for the mild vision of
Kookaburra wings. The secret spices is on the strong side, salty and
need to be balanced with the blue cheese dressing.

Our main
meal is Chile Marinated Ribeye ($47.90). 10oz (about 284 gram) of
Ribeye steak, grilled to medium rare. It is then topped with avocado
pico de gallo (salsa). The steak is juicy and succulent, almost to
the point it melts in your mouth. The avocado salsa with is freshness
and acidity helps to balance the fattiness of the ribeye steak.

The steak
is served with corn of the cob, crispy tortilla strips and grilled
tomato. The corn is sweet with a solid smokey aroma, while the
grilled tomato is thick and juicy. I personally think the tortilla
strips does not contribute anything to the dish, hoping that they
might replace it with tortilla chips instead.

Tropical
Beef and Rice ($15.90) - Sautéed Beef, Seasonal Veggies and Green
Capsicum tossed with teriyaki sauce. Served with steamed rice and
pineapple. This dish reminds me of my uni days in Melbourne where we
can get this in a suburban Chinese Restaurant.
Tropical Beef and Rice |
The beef
cubes are well caramelised, mixed with crunchy vegetables. The
teriyaki sauce makes this dish a "Rice Thief", where you
just can't stop scooping the rice. The pineapple will add balance to
this dish with its sweet and acidic flavour. A simple combination
that is just comforting, Yum.
Dessert
is Skillet Cookie ($13.90) – Giant and gooey chocolate chip cookie
served in a skillet and topped with vanilla ice cream, warm chocolate
sauce and fresh mint. Sweet and delicious, where the combination of
hot and cold made it a perfect ending to your meal. Absolutely
delicious.

The décor
of the restaurant is a combination of western tavern with Australian
touch. The solid wood theme is feature prominently here. One thing
for sure, if you are seated by the window, you can see the hustle and
bustle of the Orchard Road from the top.
Our Drinks |
Overall,
the new menu in Outback Steakhouse is inspired by flavours of the
world. Kudos to them for incorporating Teriyaki sauce, Avocado pico
de gallo and Sriracha aioli in their ingredients. Instead of sticking
with the oldies, they welcome the flavours of the world to their
table. So if you are around Orchard or Suntec area, check out Outback
Steakhouse. Cheers!!
