    Elegant food and friendly, efficient service. I enjoyed my salmon with carrot puree, but my companion's pork chop with cilantro sauce and corn was a knockout, as was the passionfruit mousse for dessert. Lovely heated parklet with cherry blossoms in view. Hard to believe I've been sleeping on Memento for two years! The prices are a bit steep, so save this one for a special occasion.

    Came for brunch and sat in the parklet which was lovely and warm on a winter day. However, the food was lacking. The fried chicken sandwich came with aioli but it had little flavor, was not crispy, the meat was tough and it was difficult to take a bite. I did like the very soft bun. The truffled mac and cheese was overwhelmed by the truffle flavor, and the penne was a bit overcooked (way beyond al dente). Not a good value for the money, the prices were high. The cocktails are soju-based.
