Outdated Post: 4xfour - Regina Santamaria

Last nov, i went to 4xfour - Regina Santamaria for lunch. 

Whats is 4xfour? 
(taken from the website)
4 X FOUR is an exciting new concept that brings together the art of gastronomy with the world of visual art. 4 distinctive cuisines by 4 internationally acclaimed chefs, 9 local artists, all showcased in a purpose-built Pop-Up Restaurant.

We were lucky to be able to book a table for 2, as most of the days are already full. Other than Santamaria team, there were other celebrity chefs here. I was tempted to try Chef Alvin Leung because i really admire his cooking style but it is the last time that santamaria team cook... So we decided to go for Regina santamaria.  

Below is our lunch menu. As expected, the foods were good and worth the experience.  

razor clams salad with sun-dried tomaotes, citrus vinaigrette
It was Prawns but i cannot eat prawns so mine was tomatoes.  
- - -

hen "consome" with organic and wild mushrooms and smoke eel

- - -

wild market fish, "rostit" sauce, artichokes, green asparagus

- - -

roasted Korubuta pork belly, cherry tomatoes, fresh Burratta

- - -

roasted pineapple with tropical fruits, vanilla and coconut sorbet

- - -

Nespresso Coffee or Clipper Tea


You can see the interior inside the pop-up restaurant. 





Before the lunch starts, Regina Santamaria gave a speech. 

And our lunch starts now~~~

1st course: mixed tomatoes. 


2nd Course: Hen consommé. 
Before pouring the consommé. 

tadah, i like the eel (i know can't see here, but it is really good)

3rd course: Fish. This is my fav of all. Love every bits of it including the artichoke and asparagus. 

4th course: Pork Belly with burrata cheese. 
I like it that they sprinkle some sea salt on the pork belly, so u taste abit of the salt while munching the pork belly... okay, i am a fan of sea salt. hehe. The interesting part is burrata cheese goes so well with pork belly! Im really amazed by this.

Lastly, Dessert. 

A Clipper Green tea to finish off the meal. 

Of course, how not to take a picture with Regina Santamaria. :)) 



Afterall, it is a good experience. I hope those who went enjoy the food like me. :)) 


Savour 2014 is coming! I am going to give it a miss this year. But will try to find the photos i took during savour 2012 and 2013.
