Thanks to for this delightful culinary moments at — and if you’re a true gourmand, you need to put this on your list.

We experienced Duck à la Rouennaise, also known as Pressed Duck — a dish so iconic, so theatrical, and so deeply French that it feels like dining inside a culinary time capsule. 🇫🇷✨

What strikes you first is the ritual:
🦆 The duck is carved tableside with the precision of a jeweller.
🔪 Then… the press — a gleaming vintage contraption — turns the bones into a rich, ruby-red jus.
🔥 And finally, the chef transforms it into a sauce so intense, so velvety, so decadent, it almost feels forbidden.

At Philippe, Chef Philippe Mouchel doesn’t just serve a dish — he performs it. The flavours are bold and layered: deep game notes, silky liver richness, a whisper of Cognac, and that unmistakable French mastery. Every bite tastes like heritage meeting modern Melbourne sophistication.

If you’re looking for:
✔️ A show-stopping date night
✔️ A true gastronomic experience
✔️ A dish that sparks conversation and awe

…then the Pressed Duck at Philippe is your moment.

📍 Philippe, Melbourne CBD
🍷 Pairs perfectly with a Burgundy or Merlot Mayer — trust me.
tip: Book ahead and ask specifically for the Duck à la Rouennaise experience.

One BKK’s best hidden gems… 🔥
Welcome to , where Japanese technique meets American steakhouse swagger over a roaring wood fire! 🇯🇵🤝🇺🇸 The vibe? Think retro speakeasy. The food? PURE magic. ✨
We’re talking melt-in-your-mouth Wagyu oh I beef with a smoky char, the freshest Hamachi crisp or hand roll that will blow your mind and then the real game began… the shot battle where both counters are battling to offer more shot of the day before the grilling food is arriving.

Every dish was a 10/10, and their cocktails are liquid art. 🍸 Seriously, this place is perfect for your next date night or special occasion.

It was a long time we did not visit and the moment when the meat sweats are 100% worth it. 🔥 You guys, I’m still dreaming about the absolute feast we had at today lunch ! If you’re serious about your barbecue, this is your temple. 🙏
We went all out with The Motherlode platter, and it was EPIC. Let’s break it down:
🍖 St. Louis Pork Ribs: Fall-off-the-bone tender is an understatement. Glazed with a sticky, tangy sauce that had the perfect balance of sweet and smoky. I could have eaten a whole rack myself. No regrets.
🥩 Beef Brisket: Just LOOK at that smoke ring! 14 hours in the smoker results in pure, melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The peppery bark gives it an incredible crust that contrasts with the buttery, tender meat inside. A total showstopper. 💯
The Meatsmith burger still the best in town.
🧀 The Sides: Don’t even think about skipping the sides! The Cornbread with burnt butter was a revelation,.
The vibe here is just as good as the food – think modern American smokehouse with great tunes and even better wines and cocktails. It’s the perfect spot to gather your crew for a proper carnivorous celebration.
My verdict? 10/10. An absolute must-try for any meat lover in Singapore. Tag your BBQ buddy who owes you a feast! 👇

Starting my day with a warm, buttery croissant from one of my favorite bakery 🥐 .bakery.sg. There’s nothing quite like that flaky, golden goodness to kickstart the morning! Stay tuned, we will visit and review several croissants in . Our rating 4.5/5 and 5/5 on value for price paid as it remains cheaper vs many bakeries
