SUMMER PALACE

Regent Hotel Singapore, Level 3, 1 Cuscaden Road, S(249715) TEL: 6725 3288 The kitchen turns out exceptionally tasty fare with flavours that are punchy, yet don’t overwhelm. The starter of deep-fried frog legs with Chinese five-spice is a unanimous favourite. The batter is crisp and light, and the spices whet the appetite. Equally well received are the doubleboiled assorted seafood soup, the delicate braised homemade tofu with spinach and crabmeat, and the luscious slow-cooked pork ribs with lychee sauce, served with golden mantou for dipping.
