Saawaan

"Saawaan", meaning "heaven" in Thai, delivers a transcendent dining experience courtesy of a set menu that artistically plays with Thai flavours and cooking techniques including fermenting, steaming, boiling and grilling over charcoal. Each dish is plated and served in its own unique way, delighting diners. The menu highlights both imported and local ingredients, emphasising the restaurant's commitment to quality and community." - Michelin Inspector
