Revolution Wine Bistro

Revolution - SilverKris

"Tucked away in an industrial building on Henderson Road, this tasteful bistro is the perfect escape from the bustle of life. Led by sommeliers Alvin Gho and Ian Lim of the now-defunct RVLT, it features sculptural pieces by Danish design house Fritz Hansen, setting the table for a no-rules menu built on instinct and flavour. Chef Sunny Leong’s dinner tasting menu cleverly balances whimsy with technique; highlights include the chicken skin stroopwafel served with ‘drunken’ foie gras and rose wine, and a delicate crystal bread in the shape of a Japanese sensu fan, topped with lobster roe bavarois and caviar. Of course, there’s also plenty of minimal intervention vino to go around. The blue mussel ‘cheong fun’ with Jerusalem artichoke finds a wonderful match with a gentle orange wine from New Zealand’s Kunoh Wines. On busier nights, the vibe is lively and intimate – it’s almost like visiting a friend’s house party, clinking glasses and sharing plates over nostalgic pop." - Ben Chin
