went to Melt Cafe last night.
Cold seafood: Only the prawns and mussels were nice. Oysters weren't plump. Spanner crab and lobster were tasteless.
Appetisers: Fresh sashimi - salmon, tuna, octopus. For the salad section i think there were only three types of leafy veg. Breads were good according to others. I liked the antipasti especially the stuffed peppers. Beef salad was also good.
Cooked food: Lamb shank, spring chicken were nice. Stir fried beef was very salty. Veg dishes were also cooked well. Roast beef was very average, go for the beef at the bbq station instead. Didn't try the laksa which was said to be nice.
Indian food: The mutton (Laal Maas) was good. I prefer the indian food at Escape (One Farrer). Tandoori chicken, fish and lamb were so-so maybe because they were at room temp. Didn't try the freshly made naan (plain, butter, garlic).
BBQ station: only available on weekends. i would recommend the prawn, lamb and chicken satay. the rest like the beef, salmon, pork ribs, pork sausages and chicken were also not bad. many condiments to accompany the grilled food.
desserts: generally quite nice. special items included the home made marshmallows, truffles (two kinds but flavours weren't stated) and chocolate gelee with chocolate soil. cakes i liked were the red velvet, mango and one with choc ganache. bread pudding had a nice crust. the first waffle (freshly made at the station) i tried was overcooked but the second round was better. went well with the ice cream - choc was the best. kueh salat and nine-layer kueh were the only two types of nonya kueh available. didn't try the fresh juices. hot beverages included in the buffet but had to order from the wait staff.

Its not a publicly available, so no point for me to reveal the detail.
