"Empress sports a chic, modern-colonial style, which nicely suits its waterside location within the historic grounds of the Asian Civilisations Museum. The mingling of modern and traditional styles extends to the Cantonese menu, where classics such as the Triple Roast Platter—gleaming morsels of roast pork, char siew (barbecued pork), and sweet, sticky pork ribs—is made with Spanish grain-fed Duroc pig. Like any good Cantonese restaurant, much of the food here is underpinned by a solid stock base; the double-boiled soups are some of the best in town." - Annette Tan
