Dishing up something new and exciting, the owners of the two food and drink destinations, Executive Chef David Gunawan and tea connoisseur Jude Wang, have joined forces to open a casual wine bar in the bustling Mount Pleasant neighbourhood. Based on their track records, the new venture is poised for success. Wang has a loyal customer base that eagerly snaps up his products to the point of them regularly selling out. Gunawan has an impressive track record of launching award-winning restaurants that have helped define the city’s culinary landscape: Wildebeest (Best New Restaurant in 2012), Farmer’s Apprentice (Best New Restaurant, Best Casual Restaurant and Restaurant of the Year in 2014), Grapes & Soda (Best Bar in 2018) and Royal Dinette (Best New Restaurant and Chef of the Year in 2019).
