Equinox restaurant, (previously known as Compass Rose) is one of the most popular high-floor restaurants in Singapore, with breathtaking views, highlighting Modern European cuisine. 




When the lift opens, you will see this entrance.





Prior to this visit, my impression of Equinox was a very big, classy and cozy restaurant, with top-notch service. But I don't really like the seating arrangements at the lower level (See photo below - aren't the tables very near to each other?) We could easily overheard other people's conversation. 



And you need to walk down a step for these seats. The server's counter is just beside the steps as well, so it's very cramped in that area. Try to avoid these seats if you want to have some private conversation with your partner. The aircon on that day was very warm too due to the hot weather outside... 

To my surprise, the crowd here during daytime were mostly quite Kiasu type.. and in very casual wear, even with bermudas. So it's very relaxing to dine here during daytime. :)






This was my refreshing Mocktail with an additional cost of $9++




Herb Crusted Salmon, Grilled Asparagus, Cucumber Ribbons & Saffron Butter
I'm satisfied with the salmon here, quite tender and well done but it can be tenderer...




Pan Seared Barramundi, Sauteed Green Beans, Shitake Mushrooms & Herb Broth
This was very ordinary, my partner was not satisfied with this dish as the taste was average and the portion was quite miserable so he feedback to the staff when they asked how was the food. They're very kind to let him select another main course again. (Photo below)  Good Service!





Slow Roasted Pork Belly, Curried Sweet Potatoes, Roast Onions with Zucchini with Cider Sauce
The roasted belly was super tender and fragrant, tastes much better than the above photo.

Complimentary Birthday Cake - Love the handwriting, very nice! :)
