Province

WORTHY FIRST OMASAKE EXPERIENCE Province X Martell Thank you so much, Chef Law & Team! Everything about the meal was wonderful - from the friendly staffs to beautifully presented dishes. I left feeling completely satisfied and happy! My top 3: Prawn and sago toast with uni, golden cap farms and muscovy duck. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended. And yes, already planning my next visit!

Province in Joo Chiat is a fine dining restaurant that takes Southeast Asian ingredients and elevates them in creative, unexpected ways. The menu is designed as a journey — each course highlighting local produce, spices, and flavors that we often take for granted, now reimagined with a fresh perspective. It feels modern, grounded, and respectful of the region’s culinary roots. The food is quite good — beautifully plated, balanced in taste, and full of depth without being heavy. You can really sense the intention behind the dishes, with thoughtful combinations that let the ingredients shine rather than being overshadowed. It’s not just about presentation; every bite carries flavor and character. The service team is knowledgeable and warm, explaining the stories behind each course while keeping the experience relaxed and approachable. The space itself is intimate and understated, which allows the focus to stay on the food and conversation. Province shows that fine dining doesn’t need imported luxury to impress — it proves that Southeast Asia’s own ingredients can be just as elegant and memorable. A must-try if you’re in Joo Chiat and looking for a unique culinary experience.

Brought my mum here for dinner and we were honestly blown away with the food. We had the seasonal Province x Martell collab menu. Chef Law is extremely thoughtful, passionate and knowledgeable about the process behind the menu he curated, and everything was so freaking delicious. His team took real good care of us and we had a very nice time there. The price point is very fair for the quality, effort and presentation of the entire dinner. We did a Martell inspired cocktail pairing with our meal (hesitant at first because my mum don't really drink Martell) but we had no regrets, the drinks were super on point even for my mum who doesn't drink cocktails. Amazing service from the team, I can't wait for the next meal at Province!

Dishes were crafted with surprises and passion. We looked forward to their every creation when it was presented to us. They were flavourful and our tummies were well fed. Thanks team! Their entrance is located within 808 eating house. Enter from the eating house and walk straight in.

The restaurant is located within another eatery. I was a bit lost initially. The service was decent, but somehow feels a bit awkward. Dishes were fine but really didn't leave much impression in terms of flavor or creativity. Can't really recall any dish that impressed us, rather can't remember any dish by now.

Brought husband here for his birthday to try the Autumn 2025 menu. Southeast Asian produce and ingredients done creatively to bring you novelty that tastes just familiar enough for us to savour every dish and look forward to each next one. If we had to pick just one, the mushroom in mushroom on mushroom dish - Golden Cap Farms - was probably our favourite. Also mindblown by the daun salam ice cream: not all heroes wear capes. Don’t want to call this a “hidden gem” but it is quite well hidden in the back of 808 Eating House, so this was a really lucky find. In hindsight it didn’t really feel like fine dining because we went home not still feeling hungry 😋 The Head Chef was on reservist but the 3 chefs didn’t take MC or slack off on our Sunday night reservation so here’s a shoutout. They ate (and so did we 😉) Chef Jarren was very warm and we enjoyed chatting with each of them in between courses.

JJ and team always crafts menus where every dish holds its own weight and the cooking technique shines through. We have visited a couple of times with different menus each time and have been wowed each time we visit. We look forward to coming back for more!

Dinner at Province was impressive. Every dish was thoughtful, creative, and packed with flavour. They took familiar Southeast Asian ingredients and transformed them into something fresh, exciting and delicious. The petai, usually a strong-smelling bean, was turned into a purée and blended perfectly with other ingredients — it really stood out in a good way! The team explained each dish with care, and it was clear how much heart went into the menu. Truly a memorable meal.
