Be spoilt for choice as JUSTIN ups the ante with a variety of irresistible mains with both Asian and French influences. Patrons are bound to be entranced by dishes such as the delicious Fresh Crabmeat Capellini ($30) which harmoniously brings together silky capellini pasta sauteed with fresh crab meat and herbs and is rumoured to be one of the favourites of the late Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. Crepinettes of Pig Trotters “Perigordine” ($42) features braised pig trotters, sauteed duck foie gras, wild mushrooms, and thyme jus, beautifully plated on a potato mousseline.
