Tangerine, ESPA at Resort World Sentosa is helmed by Chefs Forest and Sam Leong. It was my first visit last Saturday (7/8/2013) and truly a great experience with me. ESPA offers complete luxurious health retreat and spa holiday since June 2013. Guests are given a luxurious spa retreat and of course interesting delicacies selectively prepared by Tangerine. Both chefs worked with the nutritionist to come up with the healthy menu with the calories stated in the menu.I always have the perception tha
I always have the perception that eat healthy means tasteless foods but i was totally wrong. I am impressed with the 3-course lunch prepared by the chefs which gives me another new perception over healthy foods.My lunch session was an enjoyable as we are introduced with the dishes served by Chefs Sam Leong and Chefs Forest Leong to let us have a better understanding on the delicacy.

Absolutely loving all the dishes. The extra virgin coconut vinaigrette was absolutely something new for me. The combination with the green leaves and also the pomeloes tasted marvellous. Chef Forest shared with us that coconut oil is actually more healthier than olive oil.
Sous Vide Salmon olive dust was prepared up to 48 degrees to maintain the omega 3 in it. So the taste is medium well done and the salmon meat was so smooth and tender. It just flow through the throat with the olive dust and green pea mash.
Organic Lemongrass chicken was prepared using chicken breast and i always though the part will be hard to chew but I am wrong. it was well cooked tender and not smoothing. My friend love this and it was simple, elegant and nice presentation. It is quite filling when you have it with the healthy brown rice.
The lunch session ended with chilled avocado & chocolate sorbet. Interesting combination and bold try by the chef. The avocado was fresh and the dark chocolate served in a great proportion.
