\"Masons
\nMasons is nestled among lush greenery of Gillman Barracks where British soldiers used to reside after WWII. The colonial decor<\/strong> of Masons is classy like in a movie: black-and-white checkered floor tiles with dim lights.<\/p>\n

\"Masons
\nBrit Chef Jack Woolner<\/strong>, who runs the kitchen, trained under Clive Dixon, one of the youngest Michelin star chefs, and under Heston Blumenthal OBE, owner of Michelin starred Hinds Head. Chef Woolner presents a variety of price range for the food. For the all-day menu<\/a>, it is priced in the mid-range. There are pizzas<\/strong> from $21 and salads<\/strong> and mains<\/strong> from $24.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Masons
\nBut we had the fine-dining dinner menu<\/a>, which has a $98 tasting menu. In general, we thought the food was competent, not particularly impressive but not bad either. Started off with lobster bisque with cognac<\/strong> which was thick and sweet. The seared foie gras<\/strong> ($28) was ample and sat on a bed of roasted orange, drizzled with cointreau, on toast. Quite a smart combination but the foie gras was a tad overcooked and hence, a little tough.<\/p>\n

\"Masons
\nThe wagyu fillet<\/strong> (250g, $90) was tender and chewy but the red wine jus might be too cloy after a few bites. Ended with chocolate fondant<\/strong> ($12), which was skillful, but the accompanying vanilla ice cream had a freezer’s taste.<\/p>\n

\"Masons
\nOverall, the food was satisfactory but expensive. As for ambience, Masons is an ideal place for dates<\/strong>, lazy afternoon meals, and groups of friends and colleagues<\/strong>. I’d strongly suggest they do weekend brunch, which would probably be popular because of the great ambience. <\/p>\n
