Summer Hill is a French restaurant nestled in Sunset Way (#01-62, 106 Clementi Street 12, tel : +65 +65 62515337) by Anthony Yeoh from the defunct Cocotte. Yes, that Cocotte.
They have small plates and regular ones. This glazed beetroot with ricotta was one of the small ones. I believe it's been marinated with possibly the juice of some fruit. Loads of perky citrus paired with a light earthiness of the beets and richness from the ricotta. I loved this. Very nice.
We had some roasted baby eggplants with hummus, crispy chickpeas and some pretty plump raisins. Not bad.
Their mains included chicken pot pie with truffle and foie gras. The pot pie was a lot smaller than it looked. Only half the pot beneath the crust was filled. It was creamy and delicious though.
Also had the fried boned in Dutch veal with a panko and thyme crust. The meat was very tender. Would have preferred a fruity sauce to go with it but I guess whole grain mustard was also fine. I didn't dislike this but I wouldn't order it again because it was expensive. For that price I was also hoping for a showcase of a spectacular sauce/compote to go with the veal than just mustard.
Dessert was an olive oil cake flavoured with citrus and rosemary. Not bad. Rather small though. Nice with the cream.
