Sometime in August G Hotel and Sesame + Soy, their Pan Asian Chinese restaurant, extended a gracious invitation to us to sample their Business Lunch Set @ Soy.Sesame + Soys uniqueness lie in their dual dining ambience, where Sesame is the epitome of fine dining while Soy is casual yet elegant. Soy comes across as a modern Asian bistro, infused with a hint of Zen that complements its casual vibe.Soyoffers a scrumptious menu with a wide selection of tempting delicacies that areluscious fusion of Asian flavours that will in some ways tantalise your taste buds.

Soys Business Set Lunch consists provides for a select any two (2) dishes, a choice of either a bowl steamed rice or fried rice, a single serving of their soup of the day and a dessert. Rice andChinesetea is free flow.

Back to their main dishes, there are eight choices to choose from and rotated or changed according to their restaurants schedule. The following dishes are the items that we have tasted and found to be pleasing.Soup of the day that we had was Lotus Root Soup, light to the palate but was not the version that we are used to at home.

Wok fried black fungus with garlic and ginger, crispy texture with a light sweetness that cuts through the sav! oury tas te.

Braise angle luffa with minced chicken and egg whites, the smooth eggy sweet gravy balanced well with the textured tender body of the luffa.

Fried mixed vegetables with garlic, a simple dish that is ready to be paired with dishes thatexude intense flavours.

Steamed snapper fillet and Sichuan peppercorns, is spicy at first but ends with a sweet after taste that does not interfere with the slick texture of the fish. Would beappeaserto people who fancy some heat to their lunch.

Crispy batter eel with red pickled grains and chili Hoi Sin dip, true to its name. Deep fried till crunchy crisp with a slight salty taste.

Chilled drunken chicken with garlic and chive dressing, the crisp skin matched with the firmed meat of the poached chicken wascohesive to the light tasting dressing which went quite well with a bowl of white rice.

Spiced crispy chicken with ginger and garlic, the tender chicken pieces were slightly oily to our liking but the flavours went down well with us. There was a bit of zing that heated up the taste buds.

Sichuan style wok fried duck fillet with chilli and ginger, a bit general but still flavourful with its spiced up seasoning.

As the meal ends, dessert is served. We had the opportunity the sample the specialties or signatures which is said to be the favourites amongst their returning guests. Their Gula Melaka Crme Brule with Coconut Ice Cream is one of their star desserts that infuse the techniques of the west with local ingredients. The rich creamy crme Brule wasnt too sweet nor blend, just the right consistency in taste and texture. The other desserts that we sampled were equally delightful.
