Jaan On the Top
Restaurant Jaan was named on the best restaurants in the world recently by the controversial magazine Restaurant.
We decided to make our own idea, so we made a decision to check it ourselves by going to lunch at Jaan on Tuesday October 21st.
We were accompanied by our four years old boy, and graciously the restaurant and the chef Julien Royer made an exception to accept our reservation with our kid.
The setting was incredible; we had a table by the window, so we could admire one of the most magnificent views of Singapore and on Marina Bay.
The service was very kind, warmed, welcomed and very professional.
Our lunch menu was composed of several astonishing amuses-bouches like55’ Rosemary Smoked Organic Egg, Jaan Garden and Milk Poached White Asparagus; the meal continued with a modern version of the famous Gargouillou Salad by Michel Bras. It’s not surprising, considering that Julien was disciple of Michel Bras and is a native of Cantal in France like Bras himself.
Our main courses were Confit Rainbow Trout and Spring Barley ‘Comme Un Risotto’ were very light, extremely savory, and finally, the pre-dessert was the most original and was incredible in its lightness, It was a sort of aerial yoghurt composed of pearls of Japan and delicate cream of citrus and ginger, it was the wow effect touch that we were looking for.
Our desserts, a Strawberry Feuilles à Feuilles and an Exotic Pineapple, Banana Cheesecake concluded one of the best meals we had so far this year.
The price of this lunch was 68 Singapore Dollars per person; we can tell you that is one of the best bargains right now in Singapore and for that matter in the world for a high-end lunch.
We want to congratulate Julien Royer and his second in command, Kirk Westaway for offering us this tour de force, for us their cooking is worth at least two stars on Michelin guide. By the way, we would like to advise the Michelin Guide to come to Singapore and check all the incredible talents that are blossoming right now and ready to explode through the planet.
Jaan is a must eat if you’re traveling to Singapore.
