This casual dining restaurant, founded by a group of passionate chefs who consider themselves a family, promises a delightful culinary experience like no other.
When you step into Fam Dining, you’ll immediately notice the charming blend of European and Japanese influences. The restaurant’s contemporary setting is inspired by Nordic-style architecture, with a touch of Japanese ‘Wabi-Sabi’ concept. It’s a perfect combination that embraces the beauty of organic aesthetics and the simplicity of bliss.
Now, let’s get to the good stuff—the food! Fam Dining takes great pride in crafting high-quality dishes using only the freshest ingredients. Their menu offers a fusion of European cuisine with a Japanese twist, resulting in unique and creative plates that will leave your taste buds begging for more.
One of the best things about Fam Dining is that their food not only looks fine but also comes at an affordable price. Their signature Fam Dining Set is a must-try, but if you happen to visit on the weekend, be sure to check out their newly launched Weekend Brunch menu. It includes tantalizing starters, delectable toasts, flavorful rice and pasta dishes, and mouthwatering sweet treats.
During our visit, we had the pleasure of sampling some of their dishes, and let us tell you, they did not disappoint! We started with the Soup of the Day, which changes regularly to keep things interesting. It’s the perfect way to start your meal.
The Sliced Beef with Deep Fried Gua Bao brings together tender slices of beef with a crispy and fluffy deep-fried bun. The combination of textures and the richness of the beef create a mouthwatering umami experience.
For seafood lovers, the Prawn with Omelette Rice is a true delight. The fried prawns are succulent and perfectly cooked, while the omelette rice provides a creamy and satisfying base. The special sauce adds a burst of flavor that elevates the dish to new heights.
If you’re in the mood for some hearty and flavorful meat, the Sliced Beef Tenderloin Rice is a must-try. The beef is cooked to perfection, boasting a tender and juicy texture. Each bite is a harmonious blend of savory and meaty goodness.
The Aburi Salmon Capellini is a dish that truly opens up your taste buds. The salmon is lightly seared, giving it a delightful smoky flavor, while the capellini pasta provides a delicate and satisfying foundation. The combination of flavors is both refreshing and satisfying.
For a unique fusion experience, the Unagi Carbonara Fettuccine combines the creaminess of traditional carbonara with the savory sweetness of unagi (grilled eel). The result is a rich and indulgent dish that combines the best of Italian and Japanese cuisine.
To end your meal on a sweet note, the Matcha Crepe with Berries and Vanilla Ice Cream is a true delight. The earthy notes of matcha are complemented by the vibrant sweetness of the berries and the creamy smoothness of the vanilla ice cream. It’s a harmonious symphony of flavors that will satisfy any dessert lover.
Thirsty? Fam Dining offers a variety of refreshing drinks to complement your meal. We highly recommend trying their Matcha Latte or the zesty Orange Americano Cooler. However, if you’re in the mood for something more adventurous, they also serve craft beer, a selection of wines including red, white, and sparkling varieties, as well as sake.
For those looking to celebrate a special occasion or host a gathering, Fam Dining has you covered. With ample seating space and even a private room for larger groups, this place is suitable for a cozy date night, a fun family outing, or a memorable gathering with friends.
In conclusion, Fam Dining exceeded our expectations in every way. From the cozy and relaxed environment to the friendly and attentive staff, every aspect of our visit was delightful. The affordability of the menu was a pleasant surprise, especially considering the superb taste and quality of the food.
