Gunther’s dining room – white table linen, charcoal-grey walls and leather chairs with uncomfortably low armrests – is suitably gloomy, hinting at expense accounts, clandestine affairs and anniversary meals. The kitchen’s nouvelle leanings are especially evident when a creamy chunk of foie gras is encrusted with crushed toasted almonds and paired with stewed sweet cherries. Veal cheeks are braised in a dark mahogany-hued sauce till fork-tender, the richness of the meat an earthy foil for the smooth mash and baby peas sautéed with bacon bits. Desserts are crafted with the same attention to detail as mains: the sabayon, for instance, is a golden, liquid cloud of egg yolk, sugar and alcohol, pierced with macerated strawberries.

  • Jan said: “Disappointing”

    Went with three friends (all of us happy spenders when it comes to food ad drink) and all of us were really disappointed with dinner. The only enjoyable dish was the starter (angle hair spaghetti with caviar) the rest was dull. At a place like Gunter's, where we spent about S$200 each on food (excl. drinks) that night, I'd expect some kind of innovation and ad surprise and there was next to nothing of that. Service was good. And we liked the little warm cakes they gave us with coffee. In summary: poor value for money, never again.
