The Iberico Ham with Burata Cheese (airflown specially from Italy)
Last Saturday, our family celebrated my wife's birthday at Osia, the fine dining restaurant at Resorts World, Sentosa. We tried several of their recommended dishes such as the stone fired bread, iberico ham with burata cheese, grilled squid and the seafood iced sensation for starters. The ham and burata cheese (above picture in white), specially flown in from Italy on the same day, were quite unitque. Grilled octopus or squid was warm, soft and tasteful.The seafood surprise was really surprising, the chef's creation of scallops, prawns, other seafood mixed in a fine puree of fruits such as peach, tomato, longan and beetroot.
The location is Osia is at Crockford Tower Level 2, next to the Lake of Dreams outside the Universal Studios. It would be recommended to make a reservation beforehand to avoid disappointment.

For the main course, we had braised and grilled neck of lamb. It was utterly delicious, very tender (medium rare), with the gravy as well as the mint sauce finely offsetting the heavy strong taste of the lamb. I would say, the strong lamb taste was not overpowering. My wife had the seabream which was grilled and covered with cream.
The overall price was about S$ 120 (US$ 100) per person, which included s glass of Australian cabernet sauvingon (Penfold's), quite decently affordable for such high quality dining.
Singapore is indeed a foodie's paradise, for both food connoiseurs and people with less refined tastebuds (like me) and we should take the opportunity to sample all the offerings right at our doorstep.
