Mr. Puck is - next to Arnie - one of the more famous and successful Austrian "exports". He now ranks amongst the best chefs/restaurateurs in the world, and "Spago" in LA is an institution that has found worldwide fame, now present in many locations, Singapore included.
Another venture of his is CUT, focusing on steak.
We booked there for our wedding anniversary and enjoyed it tremendously.
As there are many other reviews raving about this place I'm trying to keep it short, hoping to contribute to a coherent picture.
Service is very friendly, efficient, and, which I always find refreshing at "celebrity restaurants", authentic. No snobbishness, just smiles all around, staff greeting repeat customers with true joy of seeing each other again. A rare trait at this kind of place.
Interior is modern/elegant, darkish, with great lighting, and the wonderful celebrity portrait photography by Martin Schoeller featured in the entire location and on menus.
Food is delicious- I won't go into detail, we had crab/shrimp cocktail starters, steak and dessert - and it arrives pretty fast, which we did not expect with the restaurant being very busy.
The wine list features a great many choices and we really enjoyed our Pinot Noir from California. Prices for wine are on the steep side, but I guess this isn't news to anyone in Singapore..
I really enjoyed the background music as it was a very good mix of old classics (e.g. David Bowie) and contemporary (e.g. Coldplay) - a daring choice but a good change from "the usual".
Toilets are very sleek and very clean, and so big!
I cannot think of anything else to describe and would just mention at this point that the restaurant is located in a luxury shopping mall, which is of some benefit if you want to coax your significant other into visiting Gucci post-dinner.. (didn't work for me but one can always try ;-))
