Nice ambience and decor. The service crew were pleasant and polite. 
It was rather disappointing that quite a few dishes were not available though.
We ordered a set menu and added on some Dim Sum dishes.
The first appetiser dish was served quickly.

Beancurd Skin Rolls and Fresh Truffles served with Chef's Special Sauce

Pretty appetising dish. The sauce was sweet and sour, and the crisp lettuce gave the dish a refreshing touch.
The flavour reminded me of a Thai Green Papaya salad.

[8/10]

Braised Shark's Fin Melon with Bird's Nest Lily Bulbs and Golden Mushrooms

The soup was alright, with the Lily Bulbs giving the dish a nice crunch. 
It was however rather bland without adding vinegar.

[6/10]

Pan-fried Dumplings

Did not personally try this dish, though I heard that it was fine.

Other Dim Sum items that we tried:

Steamed Siew Mai - tough with hard bits inside; not very tasty. [4/10]

Steamed Mix-Vegetable Dumpling - skin was too sticky, making it difficult (and rather nasty) to consume. [3/10]

Crisp-fried Pumpkin Rolls with Mushrooms and Chef's Special Blended Sauce

My favourite dish in this set. The crisp outer layer complemented well with the soft pumpkin within. 
The special sauce and the mint leaves made the rolls more flavourful. I would definitely recommend this.

[10/10]

Braised Noodles with Shredded Vegetables

The noodles had a nice rubbery texture. 

The broth had a hint of Japanese flavour - I suspect it to be miso or some sort. 

[8/10]

Chilled Apricots with White Fungus

Too sweet for my liking. The sugary taste overwhelmed the entire dish.

[2/10]

Overall [8/10]

• Food [7/10]
• Ambience [8/10]
• Service [9/10] - The manager was cheerful and considerate - requesting that the pumpkin rolls be split into two so that they could be shared. Tea was refilled swiftly. Service crew polite. Dirty plates changed upon request.
• Value [7/10] - Spent about S$30++ per person
