Hors d'œuvres

This Worli fine-dine offers a classic European affair with their hors d'œuvres that evokes the charm of Parisian eateries. The potato mille-feuille is a decadent creation of delicate potato layers, enriched with a warm, velvety parmesan cream infused with truffle and chives. Their prosciutto choux puffs are a delightful twist on traditional French fare.

Creme de la creme

The brûlee cheesecake is a modern take on the classic creme brûlee, and comes topped with seasonal fruit compote. This innovative dessert combines the creamy richness of cheesecake with the caramelised sugar crunch of creme brûlee. It's easy to see why Pierre Cadault finds cracking the sugar on his creme brûlee so cathartic - because even in the sweetest of moments, there's always room for a little drama.
