Estate: Round Three Some servings must be shared; case in point, Estate's ploughman's lunch, prodigiously perfect for a British footballer's appetite. Teeming with things that come in threes: a trinity of cold cuts _ salted beef, smoked salami & chicken ham _ & a trio of cheese _ blue, cheddar & brie.

Estate: Round Three
Some servings must be shared; case in point, Estate's ploughman's lunch, prodigiously perfect for a British footballer's appetite. Teeming with things that come in threes: a trinity of cold cuts _ salted beef, smoked salami & chicken ham _ & a trio of cheese _ blue, cheddar & brie. Plus, crusty bread, pickles, arugula & pear chutney to tame the meat-&-dairy sodium.
Foie gras on Danish toast with micro greens & pomegranate reduction. Wishful thinking: if only the pan-seared slab of liver were thicker than the slice of pastry.
Lobster salad, a RM129.90++ monster from the deep, possibly the priciest "salad" in town. Poached chunks of fresh crustacean flesh, made sweeter with seedless grapes, roma tomatoes, avocado & fresh basil, tossed in ranch dressing.
In Jamie we trust: Tellicherry black pepper (widely considered the world's best pepper, hailing from India) & Mediterranean sun-dried sea salt.
Customers can cross-order cocktails from Tate next door: Marry Hendrick (hendrick's, creme de cassis, egg white, lemon juice, raspberry, grapefruit bitters) & Kraphao Fragrancy (hendrick's, basil, lemon juice, sugar, egg white, celery bitters).
Pina Agave (don julio reposado, pineapple juice, lemon juice, agave nectar, cucumber) & Benne Agos (angostura 1919, pineapple juice, lime juice, angostura bitters, roasted sesame).
