After a fabulous lunch experience at LeVel 33 some months back (read review here), I decided to return here for dinner and drinks - for the magnificent views and freshly brewed craft beers. After all, *Fay and hubby were in town, and it was the Christmas season.

We started with a round of beers - and the ladies (3 of us) all had the Chestnut Beer, the specials of the season - overtures of aromatic chestnuts lending a nutty flavor (duh) to the smooth beer. *A had the Indian Pale Ale (malty, bitterish) and *D had the Blond Lager (light-bodied with fruity hints).

For food, we had a Seafood Medley (SGD$88.00) for sharing - a selection of pickled, marinated, cured and smoked seafood with caper berries and sauce tartare. The array of smoked salmon, prawns and squids were tasty, though the smoked salmon was a little on the salty side. The squids were juicy and chewy and plump the way I love them.

We also ordered a Gnocchi (SGD$39.00) as well, since there were 5 of us - slow braised shredded lamb shoulder, potato pasta, pine nuts, cranberry, red wine jus, goat cheese and sage. The potato pasta was sticky like glutinous rice balls, but lighter in texture, with a more powdery interior. The shredded lamb strips were most delicious in taste, and complements the potato pasta extremely well.

Overall, it was another beautiful dining experience here, with stunning views of the cityscape out the windows.
