Hotspots: Wagyu X

Our cherished red dot stands out as a haven for meat enthusiasts hosting a wide selection of beef from various corners of the world, a diversity that’s rarely paralleled by other cities. It’s no surprise then that Singapore has become the home of a unique steakhouse that presents beef seldom found outside of Japan.

Enter Wagyu X, the latest addition to the steakhouse scene. Hailing from Japan, Wagyu X, as the name suggests, specialises in serving Wagyu beef, but with an additional “X” factor that distinguishes it from others. This isn’t your typical, overly buttery Wagyu adored by many but sometimes overwhelming to others. Instead, it offers a unique crossbreed of Hokkaido Wagyu that Chef Masahiro Takada discovered during his explorations. The Wagyu X crossbreed combines the melt-in-your-mouth qualities of Wagyu with the rich meatiness and deep flavours of Aberdeen Angus striking a remarkable balance of taste and textures. And this particular breed is exclusive to Wagyu X and cannot be found anywhere else in Singapore.

Japanese spirit

The setting at Wagyu X embraces a light, casually sophisticated Japanese spirit. But don’t be fooled by its unassuming, elegant look, Chef Masa has created something extraordinary that sets it apart from traditional steakhouses and unquestionably merits a visit. We had the pleasure of experiencing this captivating menu, and it was nothing short of exceptional.

Our culinary expedition started with the Corn Mousse with Uni (S$30) – a creamy Japanese corn mousse topped with sea urchin and ikura, and an excellent prelude to what followed. The table also relished the Hokkaido Scallop (S$26), impeccably cooked scallops served with capsicum puree and butter.

After a great start, the spotlight shone on the centrepiece of the evening: the Wagyu X Sirloin ($160 for 500g, $300 for 1kg) and the Ribeye ($125 for 500g, $240 for 1kg). A Tenderloin ($120 for 250g, $230 for 500g) is also available but was not part of our menu. Both cuts delivered on multiple levels, offering a harmonious blend of “meaty Wagyu” and/or “buttery Angus.” Hybrid breeds often bring about novel flavours and textures, occasionally diverging from the original characteristics. However, Wagyu X aptly preserves the finest attributes of both breeds, which individually are already exceptional; it’s almost like savouring two distinct steaks in one.

Buttery-to-meaty ratio

The quality of this meat undeniably exceeds expectations, and Chef Masa’s method to serving the steak is simple, allowing the meat’s flavour to take the spotlight. This approach is the ideal way to experience the optimal buttery-to-meaty ratio, showcasing both the Angus and Wagyu in all their glory.

The steaks are accompanied by a selection of sauces, including wasabi shoyu, Ponzu, and Japanese steak sauce. The deep and rich layers of the Japanese steak sauce come from its careful preparation using the fat-rich trimmings and aromatics. Although I typically prefer my steak without sauce, I must join the accolades on the sauce.

No steak meal is complete without side dishes, and we indulged in Matsutake fries (S$12), Roasted Japanese Pumpkin with Walnut (S$12), Creamed Spinach (S$12), Mushroom Tempura ($16), crunchy Onion Rings ($12). Our meat came accompanied by Confit garlic and garlic chips (S$6). The table particularly raved about the garlic chips – they’re definitely worth a double order!

After a pause, we ended our meal with the Tiramisu ($18), a house specialty from its sister Italian Ristorante Takada. A deconstructed version that gives the diner the choice of having the ladyfingers soaked in coffee liquor or not. The result is a very pleasant mix of crunch and creaminess from the mascarpone cheese.  In addition to the tiramisu, we also had the Burnt Cheesecake w/ Ice Cream ($18), each bite was comfortable smooth and silky with a nice “burnt” touch for an added layer of flavour.

VERDICT: Overall, Chef Masahiro Takada has brought a top-tier experience in terms of both food and ambiance to Wagyu X. This unique establishment should be a must-visit for every meat lover, particularly because it’s the only place outside Japan where this Wagyu crossbreed can be found. An experience you won’t want to miss!

Why burnout is Singapore’s next big health problem

  •  Sponsored Content 

Singapore, the Southeast Asian Business Hub, is experiencing a rise in employee burnout as a result of the global economy’s increasing difficulty in adapting to a job market that is constantly changing, with workload being a key reason.

What Is Employee Burnout?

Contrary to popular belief, burnout is not an individual problem but a problem associated with the workplace. From micromanagement and mundane work to long work hours and lack of recognition, these comprise a cluster of stressors that, more often than not, compound over time, causing employees to leave their workplaces for the next opportunity.

Let’s take a look at a list of key examples:

  • Over-supervision: Being micromanaged by managers more often than not results in employee anxiety, reducing their confidence and inability to dictate the outcome of their work.
  • Lack of autonomy: Businesses learned a valuable lesson after the pandemic ended: allowing employees some degree of independence to flourish is key to maximising productivity. These perks, such as the option to work from home or set your own hours, are essential.
  • Monotony: With the rise of AI-driven automation tools, it’s important to free employees from redundant and monotonous tasks and allow them to pursue more creative and strategic tasks that shape the future of the company.
  • Lack of work-life balance: Workers are standing firm in their demand for a better work-life balance, as evidenced by the Great Resignation, which is why it is crucial to manage staff workloads effectively and set reasonable deadlines.

The Importance of Employee Retention and How to Achieve It 

More than ever, companies are looking for efficient ways to retain their employees, either by prioritising their well-being or providing opportunities for career development. In fact, 36% of Singapore HR leaders have sought to apply creative strategies to maximise employee retention, which include strategies such as:

  • Employee upskilling programs: Providing employees with an opportunity to learn more, either through mentorship programs conducted by upper management or company-paid workshops.
  • Employee feedback sessions: Regularly gathering feedback from employees on their expectations, current outlook on management, and level of satisfaction.
  • Provision of flexible benefits: Given the rise of a multigenerational workforce, offering flexible benefits is an ingenious way to retain employees, catering to their specific healthcare and financial needs at varying levels of employment.

Hotspots: Lo Quay

Lo Quay, a New Vietnamese cuisine restaurant, is the latest addition to the renowned Dandy Collection, known for culinary gems such as Firangi Superstar, Neon Pigeon, and Fat Prince.

A visit to Lo Quay, meaning “discovery” in Vietnamese, promises a foodie experience that lives up to its name. Chef Brown, a Saigon native, has created a menu that intertwines her gastronomical origins with her global exposure to other culinary cultures. Her dishes contain salty, sour, spicy, herby, and sweet elements of traditional Vietnamese dishes that are knitted with other complex and complementary ingredients of faraway cuisines.

Chef Brown’s journey started in Los Angeles, where she learnt the trade from the ground up before enrolling in the culinary program at the Art Institute of California in San Diego. From there, she joined acclaimed kitchens around the globe like Nobu and Zuma where she discovered new ingredients that are represented in her creations.

Undoubtedly, Chef Brown is part of a new wave of Vietnamese chefs reshaping their country’s cuisine through a progressive, global lens, anchored by a profound respect for its history. l particularly loved the worldly elements ranging from flavours from Southeast Asia, Middle East and Latin America peppered into her dishes

Our meal began with an array of cold appetisers: Amera Tomato, Soursop, and Shiso, Wagyu tartare with Onsen Egg and Shrimp puff (we added Caviar for an additional S$38), and Hiramasa with Pomegranate and Umezuke.

We then moved on to the warm appetisers where another round of equally delicious ingredients kept us on our toes: Pâté Choux with Scallop and Ikura, Oysters paired with Bone Marrow and Caviar, Jackfruit alongside Tomato and Tamarindo, and Obsiblue Prawn served on a bed of Sticky Rice with X.O. sauce.

Each dish was as delicious as the next, and we could have easily indulged in several rounds of these moreish bites. For me, the tartare was a particular highlight with a cured quail egg yolk, microgreens, mayonnaise, kizame wasabi (pickled wasabi stems) and fresh shallots. In the warm bite line up, I enjoyed the jackfruit: minced young jackfruit mixed with rice paddy herb (Ngo Om) sawtooth coriander, king trumpet mushroom breaded in panko and deep fried; and the deep-fried prawn covered on puffed sticky rice and topped with a chimichurri sauce was at a different level.

Depth of Pho flavours

When thinking of Vietnamese food Pho and Banh Mi come atop of that list, and the Discovery menu includes both. The humble Pho is elevated to new highs with a south-style broth inspired by Chef Brown’s own journey. While the beef base is wagyu, thus rich in healthy fats, the depth of flavours is a testament of low-and-slow traditional cooking (18 hours to get 10 litres into one litre of broth for those looking for the stats), exactly what a Pho should be.

The Banh Mi is not your everyday baguette. At Lo Quay, the chef’s version is presented in a “beef wellington” with grilled Iberico pork jowl, pork crackling, house made pork liver pate and kombu butter are wrapped in puff pastry and baked. It’s served with Maggi demi-glace and star anise pickled Japanese cucumber.

A refreshing citrusy palate cleanser was the stop-gap we needed before heading to our mains. The menu offers Lamb with peppadew and Hijiki, Whole Seabass with Honey Aji Amarillo and Fennel, Duck with a 70% chocolate-Hoisin sauce and Cippolini, and Wagyu MB7 with Kabocha and 333 demi-glace (available for an additional S$18 per person).

Our table opted for the Seabass and the Wagyu. Perfectly cooked, the Wagyu came accompanied by a Kabocha puree and an exceptional demi-glace, showcasing the French culinary influence within the Vietnamese gastronomical roots. The beautifully presented seabass is Chef Brown’s dedication to her California journey. The fish comes adorned with finely shaved fennel and a honey Aji Amarillo sauce, which reflect Chef Brown’s lasting impression of her influences from Nobu and Latin American cuisines.

We ended with the Café Phin Parfait, featuring espresso and dulcey, paying homage to traditional coffee. A fantastic way to end a great meal Inspired by Vietnamese coffee served with espresso sponge, coffee cream, caramelised kinako white chocolate, crème fraiche sauce. It is then finished with vanilla tuile

VERDICT: Overall, Lo Quay’s “Discovery” menu is a culinary adventure that bridges traditional flavours with global gastronomic influences, all deeply inspired by Chef Brown’s culinary journey. It’s a restaurant that deserves a place on your list for special occasions or indulgent treats. In addition to the “Discovery” menu, we opted for a wine pairing to complement the experience (the menu is priced at S$138++, and the wine pairing is available for S$98++).

Out & about…

We’ve all heard stories, reports, and urban legends about Singapore being haunted – but where are the island’s most creepy spots? From derelict hospitals to swimming pools, check out our round-up here.

10 minutes with Cheryl Ou, The Social Space

Tell us about The Social Space …
It’s a one-stop-lifestyle destination offering a café, fair-trade retail area, event and workshop space, meeting rooms and co-working space. We just opened our second outlet in DUO Galleria, Bugis, in addition to our first venue in Kreta Ayer Road.

Is this your first social enterprise?
I’m also the co-founder of The Nail Social, a nail salon that opened in 2014. Both businesses aim to provide a platform for those facing employment difficulties. We employ single mothers, youth-at-risk, ex-offenders, ex-drug addicts, persons with special needs, learning disabilities or physical disabilities, as well as those recovering from mental health issues. 

How challenging is this?
It makes managing the dynamics more demanding, but it also exposes our staff to the needs of others, and how to be more understanding and patient. Most staff at The Social Space have no experience of working in F&B. However, when onboard, many of them realise they’re a lot more capable than they thought and this boosts their self-confidence.

You stock lovely local brands …
Our retail space is strictly curated and dedicated to only featuring sustainable brands that have a positive impact on underserved communities as well as the environment. We go through a very detailed screening process for potential vendors to find out more about their mission, values and ethos. Brands include Riau Candle Co, Yeni Draws, Talking Toes, Refind, Happiness Initiative, and more.

How hard is it to find high-quality sustainable brands?
I think the public perception of socially conscious products and services is that they’re sub-standard and low quality. But the reality is that social enterprises have really upped their game and today products are comparable, if not better, than similar commercial brands in the market. 

How do your pop-ups work?
We rotate a dedicated pop-up space at our outlets to give emerging sustainable brands a chance to showcase products without having to commit to expensive rentals. Our current partner is Thryft (thryft.asia) who stock used books and clothes. 

What happens to profits from The Social Space?
A good portion of our revenue (not just profits) goes towards the community and our profit margins are a lot lower than a typical commercial business. We also hold regular fundraising campaigns by donating a percentage of café and retail sales (not profits) to a charitiable cause. For example, in 2018 we donated over S$20,000 to Red Cross Australia to support their fight against the bushfires. 

How would you like The Social Space to grow?
Right now, we’re planning a third space to offer more employment opportunities. The beneficiaries we’ve met don’t want to rely on the government or donors for financial support. By empowering them with vocational skills, stable employment and income, they can be independent and support themselves and their family. 

How can ANZA members contribute?
Come and visit as a paying customer and spread the word about us – there is strength in community! We hope consumers will realise that they have the power to make a difference simply by making a conscious decision to support social enterprises and businesses that give back.

How your dentist can help you sleep better

  •  Sponsored Content 

We spend a third of our lives asleep, but do we know what is happening in our bodies while sleeping? When you awake, do you feel rested? Or do you wake with headaches, muscle tension and overwhelming fatigue?

Snoring is one of the most common signs of a sleep breathing disorder such as Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), but only 50% of these patients snore. Grinding the teeth may be another sign.

Recent research has spotlighted the increasing prevalence of OSA, establishing it as a global public health challenge. OSA stretches across ages, genders, and backgrounds beyond its benign reputation as a “snorer’s disorder.” Over 936 million individuals worldwide suffer from OSA, with most cases remaining undiagnosed. This pandemic disrupts sleep and is linked closely to developing several serious medical conditions for the individual.

 Concealed Dangers of Undiagnosed OSA

The consequences of untreated OSA extend well beyond disturbed sleep. Often disregarded as simple snoring or daytime exhaustion, this condition can serve as an alarm for significant health crises. Cardiovascular concerns such as hypertension, heart disease, and stroke are exacerbated by the persistent strain OSA exerts on the heart and body.

Moreover, cognitive decline, diabetes, and mood disorders such as anxiety and depression may have roots in untreated OSA. In Australia, the % of motor vehicle accidents caused by lack of sleep is 23%. More concerning is the number of undiagnosed individuals in occupations requiring concentration and alertness, such as drivers, childcare and health workers.

The Significance of Early Detection and Prevention

OSA frequently emerges during childhood due to breathing-related issues that influence the development of jaw and facial bone structures, simultaneously impacting airway development. Addressing these concerns in their infancy can deter the progression of OSA into adulthood. Dental Sleep Medicine is a discipline revolutionising the approach to sleep-related issues with a proven link between dental health and sleep quality.

Dr Elaine Ng, a dental sleep medicine practitioner at Smilefocus, is critical in evaluating and identifying patients at risk of sleep-disordered breathing. She provides comprehensive evaluations, oro-facial examinations and assessments following strict, evidence-based guidelines for patients requiring OSA screening. Dr Ng conducts thorough patient assessments and clinical examinations by scrutinising oral structure and facial growth patterns – potential OSA cases are identified. Early detection empowers patients to seek intervention.

Sleep-breathing disorders

The good news is that sleep-breathing disorders are treatable and can be prevented from worsening if detected early. Collaboratively, a multidisciplinary team encompassing sleep dentists and sleep physicians such as ENT specialists, respiratory specialists, neurologists, orthodontists, oral surgeons, speech pathologists, and psychologists. Together, they orchestrate comprehensive care that addresses every aspect of the patient’s health, facial growth, and sleep quality needs.

Dr Ng collaborates closely with otolaryngologists (ENT specialists) and utilises innovative and cutting-edge solutions. These may involve oral appliances optimising airway function, enhancing sleep quality and overall wellness, and long-term monitoring. This multidisciplinary approach between dental and medical specialists guarantees that patients receive tailored solutions.

Revitalising Lives 

The impact of Dental Sleep Medicine goes beyond mitigating sleep disorders; it improves patient quality of life. Individuals who once wrestled with restless nights, choking episodes, and daytime fatigue are awakened to a revitalised life.

Enhanced sleep quality propels energy levels, sharpens cognitive function, strengthens the immune and endocrine systems and elevates moods. Furthermore, reducing snoring and sleep apnea incidents alleviates stress on the cardiovascular system. Dental sleep practitioners remind us of the vital connection between oral health, facial growth, and sleep quality.

If someone you know is in need of treatment, encourage them to take the first steps today in getting diagnosed.
