Is a counter located on the second floor of bustling Time Out Market worth the fuss? Absolutely, especially when the open kitchen is headed by Chef Stephen Gillanders and his talented team. Climb the stairs past the hordes to this special spot where the staff will guide you through the menu and suggest wine or Champagne pairings. The food is thoughtful and sophisticated, ranging from the likes of silken egg tofu with black truffle ponzu to kombu-cured fluke with tart green apple matchsticks. Queen crab arroz caldo, an especially flavorful dish, is straight from the heart, reflecting the chef's Filipino heritage. Dessert is mandatory with Pastry Chef Tatum Sinclair's quirky but sophisticated presentations.
