Overall, I have a great experience at R&D. I didn't know about the Masterchef hype going in so I had no expectations for it to live up to...
My dinner companion and I ordered the following:
ceviche
-spot & tiger prawns, bay scallops, daikon, "jolo" butter
octopus
-chargrilled, choy sum chimichurri, "yu heung" eggplant
lobster chow mein
-wok fried lobster, chitarra noodles
brussels sprouts
-black bean butter, puffed rice
I can honestly say it was all delicious, the service was really top notch and it had a cool decor as well.
I would like to go back with a bigger group and try their platter offerings...
