salmon tartare

 

I had a wonderful lunch last week with some friends at a new Italian restaurant on the waterfront. The chef was formerly at Ilido in Sentosa and now has moved his whole family to Singapore from Italy for this restaurant. It is now my new favorite and I'm going back tonight for more =o)

An evening favourite. Deer tartare (aged 30 days) seasoned with vinegar soaked mustard seeds, chives, shallots and a quail egg yolk that’s been soaked in soya sauce. Bright bold flavours found in this course that featured excellent textures that ranged from dense-meaty venison, rich quail egg yolk to the nutty pops of mustard seeds. I wouldn't have minded a crostini or two (but that might have been gauche here).

A great balance of beef, cornichons, shallots, and so many other nice flavours.

Justo llegamos a Washington para la semana de los restaurantes, donde se podía comer en muchos lugares de excelente calidad por sólo 20 dólares. Nosotros fuimos a Bistro Bis, cerca de Union Station. La entrada para mí fue el Steak Tartare Atilla, deliciosa carne cruda cocinada con las especias, más alcaparras y cebollas, y unas papas al oregano.

Wagyu Tartare

Giardiniera, black olive caramel, and potato crisps.

 

Notes: As good as always. I detected a hint of honey in the wagyu tartare dressing, which also contained mustard and Worchestershire for sure. Lovely as always. One of my favorites and a dish deserving of its status as a bluestem classic and Garrelts signature.

hand-cut steak tartar, pomme frites ($28)

 

Absolutely gorgeous. Hand chopped tenderloin ensures supple yet well diced bites of lean beef gently seasoned and popping with

 

Hand cut, double fried frites were thick and meaty, but had the most addictive golden crisp crust. Wonderful, non-greasy and utterly satisfying. The aioli on the other hand was the exact opposite, ethereal and incredible. We couldn't help but smile as we greedily dipped into the aioli.

 

Every bite of each plate was eyes rolling to the back of your head pleasing. Didier serves certainly one of, if not, the best version of steak tartare in the city. Craving satisfied.

Frisee, Egg Yolk, Crostini ($13)

 

A gift. Really enjoyed the sous vide emulsified egg yolks and the toothsome hand chopped tartare. It's the classic recipe of well seasoned raw beef, with capers and love. Some things don't need to be messed with. This was great and a must not miss.

For a sense of scale, those chips/crisps were about 1mm thick.

3rd Course: Wagyu Tartare

Mache, Black Olive Caramel, Parmesan, Armando Manni Olive Oil

Paired with Babich Sauvignon Blanc 2006

 

Notes: I rarely make mistakes twice - especially when it comes to food. Last time I had dinner at bluestem, I didn't order it. This time, I made sure to. As good as I have tasted before. Silky, buttery - the slightly hot Armando Manni olive oil and the black olive caramel sauce send it into another gastrosphere. One of the stand out dishes of the evening.

 

Unfortunately, the wine did not pair well at all with this dish. The wine was rather astringent and really clashed with the beefiness of this dish. I'm not sure what would have paired well, but the Babich Sauvignon Blanc 2006, a New Zealand wine, just didn't work for me.

Salmon Tartare

Cucumber, dill, creme fraiche and lemon. ($8 a la carte)

 

Notes: The salmon was extremely fresh and silky. I really enjoyed the refreshing crunch and creaminess of the bed of diced cucumbers dressed with creme fraiche - familiar pairing with raw salmon. Dill was a must, and so it went, appropriately.

 

This course reminds me a lot of a presentation that Gabriel Kreuther did for oysters and caviar at the Modern, NYC.

Course 2 for the gentlemen.

 

I was a little jealous especially since I have a very soft spot for hamachi. Thankfully, we had gentlemen at the table who were kind enough to share.

 

What was really nice about this plate, beside the pristine fish, was the fact that the tartare (made from belly) was seasoned with wasabi; that there was a contrast of textures from the tart crunch by the pickled rhubarb and cucumber against the supple course which also cut through the subtle and slightly rich flesh; and the addition of lime and rhubarb gelée dotting the plate which further added to the clean and fresh flavours of this dish.

A perfect tower of tuna tartar with tiny edible oba (shiso) flowers. A quick blast from a butane torch gives the lemon, salt and soy sauce seasoned flesh complexity in aroma and flavour. Mixing the diced tuna with a raw quail egg created a silky finish that was easily consumed with a tiny teaspoon.

this was delicious. haha. i can't say no to tuna tartare. two thumbs up!

It looked like Friday Food Fiesta was going to be too hard this week, with the theme of lobster. We live about as far away from the sea as it is possible to get in the UK, and there is nowhere around here that sells such things.

 

Udeterred, I went into Waitrose and scoured the place. The only thing I could find anywhere was a pack of frozen lobster tails in breadcrumbs. So I bought them.

 

Twenty minutes in the oven later, and here they are. Served with slices of Duchy Originals Multi Seed Bread, wild rocket and chard salad drizzled with balsamic vinegar, and tartare sauce.

 

It wasn't half bad.
