Tatler Dining Singapore

Skirt

- W Singapore, 21 Ocean Way, S(098374) TEL: 6808 7278 skirt.wsingapore­sentosacov­e.com

Skirt is famous for its steaks, but the concept has evolved to include modern European dishes with an Asian accent. Resist the urge of snacking on the addictive breads and save space for grilled king prawns, topped with zesty chimichurr­i sauce that enhances the prawns, rather than overpoweri­ng them. The Hokkaido scallops, browned on the outside and juicy inside, are perched on an earthy sprout purée, paired with pickled seaweed for an acerbic finish. Meats should still be on the agenda, and the deftly prepared full-blood wagyu steak is lean and succulent, served with a side of garlic purée. Service is up to standard, with the staff intuitive to diners’ needs and surprising­ly quick on their feet. The wine list comprises the usual suspects from the old and new worlds, but with a few surprises, including selections from Slovenia.
