A Culinary Adventure with Australian Black Truffles
While truffle enthusiasts eagerly await the European harvest season, Regent Phu Quoc takes a different approach. Embracing the Australian truffle season, which runs from June to August, Chef de Cuisine Daniel Huynh at Ocean Club presents a menu that pays homage to these aromatic delicacies.
Starting with an exclusive Truffle Night on 16 September and extending to a special truffle à la carte menu from 17 to 24 September, the culinary offerings promise an indulgent experience. Dishes such as crispy chicken skin and truffle curd roasted Hokkaido scallops with black truffle beurre blanc, and fresh burrata cheese paired with truffle honey dressing await discerning palates.
Mooncakes and Coffee Delight
At the Rice Market, guests can immerse themselves in the enchanting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and explore a delightful array of both traditional and modern Vietnamese coffee interpretations. Expertly crafted mooncakes complement these coffee experiences, creating a harmonious fusion of flavours.
The Mid-Autumn set at Rice Market features coconut coffee paired with two distinct mooncakes, each a masterpiece. The Caramel Mooncake boasts a blend of crunchy hazelnut, rich caramel, and a hint of sea salt, while the Miso Bitter Orange Mooncake pushes boundaries with its bold flavours, including miso, silky caramel, chocolate chips, and zesty bitter orange.
Izakaya Extravaganza with Four Hands
Following a successful debut in August, Chef de Cuisine Andy Huynh and mixologist Truong Nguyen return with the second chapter of their Four Hands Izakaya experience. This culinary journey promises meticulously paired courses and cocktails for an unforgettable evening.
