ISteaks Reserved Menu Christmas 2022

The family enjoyed the Oysters Murotsu Bay (SGD $Seasonal Special Only), which were only available for a limited time on the Christmas 2022 menu. These half-dozen fresh oysters were plump and juicy, clean-tasting with a beautiful sweet flavour. Served with a side of lemon wedge and tabasco sauce, to add as you wish. Highly recommended!

Loved the Shellfish Clams & Mussels In Wine (SGD $16), which had small but plump blue mussels and white clams, bouncy and tender in texture. Nicely clean, the steamed shellfish pick up the gravy of white wine, garlic, and parsley, resulting in a lovely robust burst of sweet savoury salty herbal boozy flavour. Addictively delicious, among the better versions I've had. Highly recommended!

Among the more popular side dishes here, the Steakhouse Fries (SGD $8) feature thick wide rectangles of russet potato fries, coated with a light seasoning of salt. With a crisp and fluffy bite, and bold starchy salty savoury sweet flavour, the fries are so satisfying. Good!

Enjoyed the Red Slaw (SGD $8) more than we thought we would. The fresh crunchy shredded red cabbage is coated in a light dressing of coleslaw mayonnaise, lending a refreshing vegetal milky sweet flavour, without any sourness. Best paired with their meats, as it lends a wholesome feel. Good!

The Carrots In Honey Ginger Glaze (SGD $8) are delicious, and have a festive feel, although it's on the regular menu. This features thick yet tender carrot slices, dressed with a thick rich gravy of natural honey and warm minced young ginger, carrying bold vegetal honeyed sweet spice flavour. Unique and tasty, kept reaching for more. Highly recommended!

A spin on onion rings, the Sweet Onion Loaf (SGD $8) features a large yellow onion, coated in batter then deep-fried. With a crisp crunchy tender texture and bold vegetal salty sweet flavour that's rather pronounced, this was tasty and addictive, but more greasy than other side dishes here. While I felt it good enough on its own, it's served with a honey barbecue sauce on the side, for added tangy sour sweet floral flavour. Good!

The Spicy Citrus Mex Chicken Leg (SGD $21 for 250g) features a medium-sized, fresh chicken leg, with tender juicy chicken meat that comes easily off the bone. The glaze lends a piquant tangy zesty sour spice flavour to the natural sweet savoury chicken meat, interesting. Dressed with fresh crisp spring onions which lend vegetal herbal sweet notes, accompanied by a lime wedge. Good!

Served in a generous portion, the St. Louis Cut BBQ Riblets (SGD $28 for 300g) has bone-in cuts of pork riblets marinated in a thick sticky St. Louis style barbecue sauce. The pork ribs are tender and juicy, with the marinade lending robust smoky meaty savoury sweet salty flavour, yum. Dressed with fresh crisp spring onions which lend vegetal herbal sweet notes, accompanied by a tender caramelised yellow onion with delicious smoky vegetal earthy sweet flavour. Good!

Loved the Charred Norwegian Salmon (SGD $30 for 250g), which has a thick cut of boneless sashimi-grade salmon fish fillet, perfectly grilled. The skin is slightly crisp with bold salty savoury notes, while the large clean flakes of moist salmon fish carry lovely meaty sweet savoury flavour, nice. Served with a lemon wedge and some dill, for a zesty tangy sour herbal touch. Accompanied by a creamy herb butter gravy for added milky butter savoury herbal sweet flavour. Good!

The Argentinian Beef Tenderloin, 100 Days Grain Fed (SGD $42 for 200g) was served nicely charred black on the outside, and beautifully medium-rare pink on the inside. Cut in and you get the slightly firm crisp exterior, then the tender moist interior. The beef carries bold smoky meaty savoury salty flavour, with a hint of grainy notes. Dressed with fresh crisp spring onions which lend vegetal herbal sweet notes, accompanied by a tender caramelised yellow onion with delicious smoky vegetal earthy sweet flavour. Highly recommended!

The Kiwi Beef Ribeye Silver Fern Reserve, Pasture Fed (SGD $35 for 300g) was served perfectly medium-rare, with the succulent cut just dripping with meat juice. Nicely tender, with bits of fat throughout, this held bold smoky meaty savoury salty flavour, so yummy. Dressed with fresh crisp spring onions which lend vegetal herbal sweet notes, accompanied by a tender caramelised yellow onion with delicious smoky vegetal earthy sweet flavour. Highly recommended!

The Posset (SGD $7) is a unique dessert, essentially a citrus infused pudding (with juices of oranges, lemons, limes), almost like a panna cotta, soft and wobbly creamy with bright tangy zesty sour sweet flavour. Garnished with fresh juicy slices of kiwi fruit and raspberry, both with fruit sour sweet flavour. Finished with a crisp crunchy round of candied nuts and granola, which lends a nutty sweet earthy flavour. Good!
