We went on an incredible culinary adventure at the gourmet food festival and came back with our top picks.

1/5
Tuna (Osia)
To simply call this dish tuna doesn't do justice to the other ingredients packed in it that contribute to its amazing flavour. Unstained, compressed watermelon, yuzu emulsion, and frozen basil come together to pack a punch to your tastebuds. It's the right amount of cold and sweet and salty and refreshing. Definite highlight of the event.
Address: Sentosa Gateway, Resorts World Sentosa
2/5
Lightly Steamed Sea Bass (Garagistes)
This beautifully done seabass yields to your tongue and melts like butter in your mouth. The furikake adds just the right texture to an otherwise smooth fish and the fragrant fish head sauce is the icing on the cake, so to speak. You might not be a fish person, but this seabass is good enough to convert the unbelieving. Garagistes is from Australia.
3/5
Trio of Molecular Buns (Bo Innovation)
Some loved this, some hated it. Our vedict is the former. These perfect circular balls come in flavours of char siew, xia long bao and lotus paste. To be gulped in one go, biting into it releases a spurting explosion of concentrated flavours, where you recognise what you taste, but in such an unexpected manner.Bo Innovation is from Hong Kong.
4/5
Flowers of Thailand (Kiinkiin)
Finally! A dessert that tastes as delightful as it looks. If perfume were a dish, this would be it. Inspired by the flowers of Thailand and Denmark, Chef Henrik Yde brings together elderflower sorbet, fresh flowers, pea flower sauce and white chocolate that takes your tongue on quite the gastronomic trip. Kiinkiin is from Denmark.
5/5
Garam Masala, Rouge Sorbet, Dulcey Panna Cotta Garam Masala Cake (Ku De Ta)
A dessert utilising an Indian ground spice definitely piqued our curiosity. Sweet without being sickening, the dessert was at some parts soft, (panna cotta) and some parts hard (cake) but all parts delicious

Address: 1 Bayfront Ave, Singapore 018971

We battled the heat and the hungry hordes to embark on a culinary adventure at Savour 2015. Who could say no to so many gourmet offerings from big name restaurants and Michelin-starred chefs under one roof?

Tickets in hand, we set out to try every dish in sight, the good, the bad, and the beautifully presented. We thought those bite-sized portions wouldn't last us through dinner but those little portions turned out to be deceptively filling and by the 6th stall, we were already stuffed. We have to say, almost every dish was a winner, but there were 5 dishes that really stood out and had us wanting more!

Here are our picks of the 5 best dishes that satiated our foodie fancy. Those of you who were at Savour 2015 will probably agree with us and those who missed it, well you can check the dishes out at their respective restaurants in Singapore or wait till Savour 2016!

Now you know not to miss Savour when it hits town.
