The open, communal concept of table manners is a refreshing change -it also fits well with the theme of openness and being in touch with gardens @ Changi City Point. Along the same stretch is an Australian bar & Five Izakaya -all w alfresco seating where one can just enjoy some fresh air and unwind with a drink in hand, good food on the table and lively company all around.Table Manners offers a lunch set where you can pick and choose various sides, but unfortunately for dinner, they serve strict
The open, communal concept of table manners is a refreshing change -it also fits well with the theme of openness and being in touch with gardens @ Changi City Point. Along the same stretch is an Australian bar & Five Izakaya -all w alfresco seating where one can just enjoy some fresh air and unwind with a drink in hand, good food on the table and lively company all around.Table Manners offers a lunch set where you can pick and choose various sides, but unfortunately for dinner, they serve strictly from their ala carte menu. Their drinks are also by Bar Stories (where one can customise martinis and cocktails according to specific ingredients you'd like), so you may want to give their cocktails a try!
We ordered an Arcadian Chicken and a Three Little Pigs, both for $16, as well as a Apricot Peach Cocktail for $13, one of their recommendations.
The Arcadian Chicken is a grilled spiced chicken thigh served with boiled garden veggies and a serving of potato wedges. The chicken thigh was really tender, but somehow the flavour of the marinate just didn't seem quite right. The vegetables weren't overcooked, and the wedges were served crisp on the outside, hot and fluffy on the inside. If you're a fan of chicken thigh and you're looking for something which isn't breaded, this would do the trick.
The Three Little Pigs is perhaps one of their bestsellers and well, we can certainly see why! Breaded pork cutlet served with mash and a salad w aoli, it's good down to the very last bite. The breaded pork isn't particularly tender to be honest, but the outside is perfectly crispy. It's also juicy + not too salty, served with a side sauce that was provided a tangy creaminess to the crispy pork. The mash potato was smoothly whipped, slightly sweet, and served with a brown sauce.
To be honest, the cocktail was so disappointing. The Apricot Peach is supposedly one of the recommended drinks but it tasted neither like apricot nor peach. There was a distinct taste of cherry syrup in this one with a hint of marmalade (it all tasted a bit strange to me). The sweetness of the syrup just didn't sit so well with me. The fruitiness wasn't a refined symphony of sweet, tropical tastes but rather a syrupy mishmash. A friend also ordered a Negrino, and while it was way stronger than the Apricot Peach cocktail, it had an unpleasant aftertaste and tasted like cough syrup. Yikes.To be honest, you're better off getting their draught/bottled beers during happy hour for $6-$8 a half pint, right up to 8pm! The cocktails are relatively disappointing.. or perhaps you could try something we didn't. (alternatively you can skip the alcohol altogether because they serve water, haha) My recommendation for TM would be the Three Little Pigs, because you really cannot go wrong with this one. Service is also fantastic! You may wish to make reservations though cos it can be quite tough to get a table without a wait unless you're lucky!
