Thirteen years on, this elegant basement restaurant still delivers arresting east-west dishes of alluring complexity. A consistent performer known for exemplary service, Ezard is top-class, high-end dining. The plush fitout and well-spaced tables allow for easy conversation, perfect for business, romance and celebration. As for the signature chilli caramel pork hock, resistance is futile. For an exhilarating adventure in colour, texture, flavour and harmony, take an eight-course tour stopping off in South-East Asia, moving through seafood to eight-score wagyu. Think swordfish shooter; citrus-cured salmon with sweet beet meringue and wasabi aioli; and a silky crab dumpling in luscious, aromatic tom kha. Next, coconut-grilled ocean trout on thick zingy gazpacho; sticky, slow cooked, five-spice Bangalow pork belly with apple pud and calvados jus; and Chinese-style roast duck with green chilli dressing on coconut rice. Finish with mango bavarois, slow-cooked peach and raspberry sorbet. Sublime.
