"Ode To" Series
Currently offered only during lunch, each ‘Ode To’ menu series features six interpretations of a singular ingredient that touches on the ideology of texture, aroma, flavour and presentation.

Ode to Earth
We consider the bounties from earth and the infinite culinary possibilities it gives us. A menu that takes us to our roots.
Ode to Soy Sauce
Smoky, sweet, savoury, umami. A drop goes a long way, we learn to tame the foundational Chinese condiment.
Ode to Tea
A singular tea leaf can change the course of history, make or break a relationship, move or pause time. We study how time and place create the mysteries around teas we’ve come to enjoy.
Ode to Tofu
Misunderstood to be one-dimensional, tofu can be tender or firm, fried or steamed; nutty or disguised as another flavour. Its characteristics lie within its maker, it can be what you want it to be.
Ode to Rice
A grain rooted in history, tradition and the culinary backbone of Asia. We put rice forth and examine its magical purity
Ode to Eggs
Master the egg, master the kitchen. The simplest, yet trickiest and most versatile ingredient in every cuisine can play a role of support or lead, the possibilities are endless.
