Guests are invited to embark on a culinary voyage, from the all-day Rice Market influenced by the great cuisines of Southern Vietnam and northern China; to the Ocean Club where serenity is an ambience of stunning sea views, comfort food, reinvented classics and rum-inspired artisanal cocktails; to the ocean-facing rooftop Fu Bar revealing intriguing gin-focused cocktails and an exclusive sky pool terrace.

Rice Market

Rice Market is a family dining heaven resonant of great heritage through Vietnamese & Chinese cuisine, deeply rooted in the humble ingredients of rice and noodles yet elevated for modern tastes. Presenting the three fundamental meals of each day through a generous breakfast experience and an expertly curated à la carte lunch and dinner menu, it takes diners on a discovery of locally-inspired and reinvented classic dishes of both cuisines that are elevated and finessed from a live kitchen and bakery.

The à la carte menu showcases the gastronomic mastery of Chef Anon’s experience with Chef Specialties including Wagyu Soft Rice Paper Roll, a signature delight of Quang Ngai rice paper wrapped with grilled Australian Wagyu beef chuck eye roll and seasoned with aromatic herbs in wasabi soya and avocado sauce; Barbecued Duck Pho serves fresh rice noodles in duck broth, topped with Cantonese barbecued duck breast, duck neck sausage and seared French duck foie gras; Black Cod In Lotus Leaf, Alaskan Black Cod fillet oven-baked with turmeric, galangal, lemongrass, chili and aromatic herbs; Spicy Chili Mud Crab, freshly caught whole mud crab wok-fried with spicy chili sauce, egg white and served with deep-fried Chinese Mantou buns.

An all-day dining restaurant, Rice Market offers a comprehensive beverage menu of traditional Vietnamese coffee, JING tea, loose leave tea and craft beers from different regions of Vietnam. A fine selection of wine, champagne and rosé thoughtfully selected by the sommelier is available for a sophisticated pairing with the cuisine.
