For many foodies, the name Jean-Georges Vongerichten needs no introduction. Best known for his skills as a chef and restaurateur, this culinary superstar owns a deep stable of restaurants that have gathered critical accolades and Michelin stars alike. Lucky for us, Jean-Georges has now created an effortlessly elegant restaurant with The Dempsey Cookhouse & Bar.

Set in the midst of vibrant COMO Dempsey hub, this 160-seater establishment puts an elegant spin onto Western fare. All the magic happens in its open kitchen where cooking is elevated into a performance art. Notable signature dishes made famous by Jean-Georges appear on the menu here, be it the rich Egg Caviar that’s composed of a warm and oozy egg capped off with caviar and herbs, or the decadent and heavenly Black Truffle and Fontina Pizza. On a hot day, there’s nothing cooler than a bowl of Tomato Gazpacho that’s enhanced with a drizzle of olive oil. Fans of seafood will also appreciate the Maine Lobster, accompanied with baby corn and a smoked chili-almond condiment. And we can’t think of a better way to end the meal than with a glass Lychee Raspberry Bellini.

Refined and elegant, The Dempsey Cookhouse & Bar will be a thrill for anyone who relishes in a dining experience well done. (Aug 2017)

The hamachi sashimi with chilli and lime is an embodiment of fresh and simple food done right." -The Peak Singapore

"For the main course, I am most impressed with the Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Chop. The meat is a tad tough because it is not Kurobuta or Mangalica - premium meats that, I confess, have spoilt my palate. But the cooking cannot be faulted - the meat is pink in the centre, the way it should be. The distinctive saltiness from the ham gives the pork an extra dimension of flavour." -The Straits Times

"Would the food be pretentious? Overpriced? Heavy and French? I was delighted to discover dishes that perfectly suit our tropical climate while still retaining Chef Vongerichten's elegant sensibility and passion for a wide range of flavours." -Sassy Singapore
