Odette Number One on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants

We had to check out the new best restaurant in Asia while in Singapore! Chef Julien Royer’s restaurant might be a tribute to his grandmother Odette, but his cooking is anything but old school French. One of our favorite dishes at Odette was the rosemary-smoked organic egg. This dish has quite the presentation – a smoking carton of eggs arrives at your table, then one of the eggs is poured into the smoked potato syphon in front of you, and finally you get to mix it all together. Yolk porn! Odette got its third Michelin star shortly after our visit and is ranked no. 1 on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants (2019).
