La Dame de Pic, Raffles Singapore Reviews from The Last Year
An icon in the Raffles hotel in Singapore
Compare this with a 3 star restaurant. From arrival to departure everything was in tip top condition. Menu with selected top wines: once in a lifetime experience. Very tasty and pricey but worth it.
The Michelin people just got this wrong: it is not in that class, not by a long way!
Lovely surroundings, exquisite presentation, professional staff -- but the bottom line is the flavour of the food, and we found it mixed. Some very good, some bland, some verging on the unpleasant. As for the wine pairing, it would have to be the most expensive I have ever experienced, for the least benefit. Yes, the course we disliked most intensely was replaced with a smile, even though we had not asked for it to be (nice touch), but of the seven courses, we thought two were excellent, two poor, and the rest in between. Not a good average. I really do not know how this place got its Michelin star; I could not recommend it.
very mediocre food
Two stars because the place is beautiful and service is good .. that s the only saving grace , but it does not make it a "Michelin" restaurant and I feel more and more that Michelin is distributing stars to some very average restaurants and can t be fully trusted.. Amuse bouches were fine , the rest was a big let down. The same cheese raviolis served over the years have been replaced with mushrooms .. wrong seasonning , salty ,the taste of the beef was mediocre .. the cheese offering was a real shame and desserts uninspiring... that left us very dissapointed , both quality of products and skills of the chef ... I don t recommend.. Mme Pic should pay more attention to who is representing her name abroad as it s really detrimental to her reputation of a three star chef...
Fantastic services and food
All through a fantastic experience, where both food, wine and services were to perfection. In addition, there is just a special atmosphere all over the place, where you feel a bit like you are sitting under the story "wingesus", so definitely a big recommendation from here.
The Unique exquisite culinary experience in Singapore.🥂💎
Best decision ever to choose this specific restaurant among many others in the Michelin Guide. French cuisine with many japanese influences, perfect execution and presentation. Taking into consideration its 10 years of existence (celebrated two weeks ago), I felt that 130€ for the 5-course menu was value for money. Last but not least, ambiance, open kitchen and nicely carved walls, contribute greatly to the overall experience.
Almost french
We were last here when they first opened pre-covid and pre-michelin star. This time, good impressions all round Good service throughout. There’s a 5 or 7 course menu choice. Standouts include the fish and pork mains. Interesting the chef included some asian ingredients in this very french restaurant - laksa leaf, coconut, kueh pieti etc.
Baffling.
I really hesitate to leave bad reviews, as I am aware that they can potentially have a negative impact for a business. But unfortunately our recent experience at this restaurant demands one. We have eaten at 1, 2 and 3 Michelin star restaurants around the world and I’m still bemused by our meal at La Dame de Pic. Positives first: the staff were excellent. Charming and informative. Big tick there. The look of the restaurant itself is chic too. And the matching wine/sake/beer etc option was interesting and very well presented by the sommelier. These are the only reasons I’ve given 2 stars in this review. But the food…it really was not good. After a decent start with the amuse bouches, the courses got worse and worse. It’s as if no one in the kitchen is actually tasting the food. The approach seems to be to take French cuisine and crash it into individual, mismatched, overly concentrated/distilled elements of Asian cuisine. I get that the French-Asian combination is the concept of the restaurant, but every course was over-powered with jarring kaffir lime, citrus, pepper or anchovy/pungent fish flavours - including seemingly each desert! We are adventurous eaters, but some of the courses were virtually inedible. Presentation was generally very good. Flavours were not. When we mentioned to our waiter that we hadn’t enjoyed a particular course, it seemed that he was able to immediately identify why (ie what elements of the dish didn’t work), without us having to explain. My impression was that he’d either tasted the dish in question and agreed with us and/or had heard the same complaints before! One more gripe for the restaurant - please don’t bring a trolley with digestifs to the table without any indication of price. It’s embarrassing for your guests and feels like a grift. My wife asked jokingly if we would have to mortgage our house if we selected something. The waiter said something vague about prices not being unreasonable then asked for our order. We took him at his word, but the cost added to the bill for the 2 digestifs was far from reasonable, imho. By way of comparison, the week before our meal at La Dame de Pic we ate at a 1 Michelin star restaurant in Edinburgh (Restaurant Martin Wishart) with a group of 4. Tasting menus all round and matching wines for 2 of us at the Edinburgh restaurant. Clearly, cost isn’t everything, but the total bill at the Edinburgh restaurant for 4 of us was $500 less than the bill for 2 of us at La Dame de Pic. And the food at the Edinburgh restaurant was truly delicious. A complete contrast to our experience in Singapore. As I mentioned at the start, I don’t like leaving bad reviews. I don’t often leave reviews on TripAdvisor and most of the reviews I do leave are overwhelmingly positive. But with a bill of almost Sing$2k for food the often tasted unpleasant, this restaurant literally left a bad taste in my mouth. It’s always a risk that you won’t enjoy the food at a particular restaurant - particularly those that attempt to innovate- and generally that’s a risk we are prepared to take, as we love food. But there is a difference between challenging/innovative food on the one hand, and bad flavour combinations on the other. Based on our experience, I simply cannot recommend this restaurant. And as a final thought - if any readers of this review are wondering why we didn’t complain more strongly when we were there - honestly, we couldn’t see the point. Based on what was coming out of the kitchen, we felt that any replacement/alternative courses would have compounded the issue. And I have no doubt that any complaint would have inevitably ended up in an uncomfortable and lengthy discussion/dissection of our experience. By the end of the meal we were simply exhausted and wanted to leave.
Big disappointment
The atmosphere was really nice, the staff very friendly and appropriate to the standard. Unfortunately, the food was not even remotely worthy of a single star. It is a mystery to me how a piece of pork fillet without any taste can be served when the jus is also completely lacking in taste.
Outstanding Food, Ambience and Service
Outstanding. From the first mouthful you will understand why it is deserving of the Michelin star. Every course was thoughtfully prepared. Flavours worked well together and plating was just so beautiful. Service was impeccable. We could not find any flaw with this restaurant.
Good, but not good enough..
This is one of my father's favorite restaurants, having tried LDdP in both London (the original) and here (Sg). We thus went for the "experience", and - indeed, were off to a promising start: amuse bouche succeeded in amusing, two mocktails were quite nice. The tomato was definitely the highlight of the evening. But, alas, was also where things started dropping. The berlingots, while admittedly "aggressive" (per our waiter), were simply bad. The fish gave us hope, but the two mains - chicken and beef were simply subpar. Not at all what my father had come to expect, or - for that matter - what I would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. The Mille-feuille (signature) was likewise disappointing. This is not to say that LDdP is a bad restaurant - far, far from it. The staff is the usual kissing-up type you'd expect with Michelin. However(!) for the price ($248 SGD pp, amounting over $700 when cocktails etc were factored in), I can't say it was justified. De gustibus non est disputandum, but at the end of the day - especially having been there before for meals that were off the charts - this time, La Dame did not live up to, or merit its hype.

I have a notice stating that my bid has been accepted and is awaiting transfer. The reservation is for the 18th, but the “moderator” said he will confirm booking by the 28th. Is this an indicator that I may not have a reservation?

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
