Accessible fine dining with edge.
Hidden gem in a high-ceilinged bottle shop.
Lanterne is a long-stayer now,but we're pleased to see some new dishes,and more pleased still to see how good they are.
The Chairman Group's Malaysian restaurant is a reminder - don't forget about the suburban eateries.
Chairman and Yip's sister venue is refined,hardworking and has an emphasis on service.
A terrific new pub with plenty of boisterous,adventurous food and drink,at great value prices.
A melding of Nonya village cooking and fine dining in a serene Campbell setting.
Not sure whether this happens to you,but every time I enter the Lanterne Rooms,I'm expecting to walk in on the Crazy 88 scene from Kill Bill where O-Ren Ishii's Yakuza army is being hacked to pieces by Black Mamba.
Lanterne Rooms has settled into its role of providing elegant Malaysian food in a classy setting without the fanfare of modern casual dining.
Modern dining - loud spaces,open,smoky kitchens - Is the new scene,but I (quietly) rejoice in the atmosphere at the Lanterne Rooms.
