Basically, Culina's is Singapore's leading purveyor of gourmet foods and wines, an interesting grocey store with dinery concept similar to Jones the Grocer and Dean & Deluca.Its spacious, contemporary and elegantly-simple designs exude comfortable vibes that feel very inviting to its patrons. Seats are available both indoors and outdoors. I really like the modernistic European design of this bistro.First, we started with a small bottle of dessert wine, Muscato (SGD$47.00). It was sweet and light

First, we started with a small bottle of dessert wine, Muscato (SGD$47.00). It was sweet and light like golden syrup, but not very smooth overall. Decent enough as a chillout wine and accompaniment to our oysters.
Anyway, the bread basket came first - delicious, freshly-baked rolls. They were still warm and fluffy, and tasted especially lovely with their olive oil with vinegar.
We ordered two each of the following oysters:-
Perle Blanche (white pearl) - sweet deep sea oyster with a creamy texture.(SGD$7.50 each)
Wild Big Oysters - raised on Atlantic coast, tasting of the ocean (SGD$6.50 each)
Perle Noire (black pearl) - sweet and creamy, with hints of iodine and hazelnut (SGD$6.00 each)
Royal Oyster - deep cupped, iodinised with a sweet finish (SGD$5.50 each)
Gillardeau - voluptuous, almost crunchy flesh, subtle and refined (SGD$6.50 each)
Overall, the service was alright and the cosy ambience are definitely delightful. The oysters are succulent and fresh, and even though I tried the vinaigrette on the oysters, finally doing the dishes. The total bill came up to SGD$114.00
