There are few place in Singapore where you can retreat from the hustle and bustle of the busy business district or shopping centre and Duxton Hill around lunchtime is one of such places. I ended up at Sabio\s to sample some of their tapas dishes and it was a truly enjoyable lunch. Food was great quality and true tapas style, and the service staff friendly and forthcoming. I can only recommend Sabio\s for lunch. Next time I need to try it for dinner.

The restaurant itself is a little small, but we were able to get a marble table for six along the side instead of a bar top seat by reserving early and requesting for the normal tables. Six of us tried the all-you-can-eat buffet since it was our first visit, and this way we could try most of the food. Food and service were on the whole good and enjoyable, except that the fried oysters needed several rounds of reminders before they were finally being served. Gambas pil pil (grilled prawns), clams in garlic sauce, meatballs, chorizo, mushrooms, grilled chicken with garlic, and seafood salad (essentially various fish) were crowd favourites. However, certain dishes such as the prawns were served in fives, which was a little strange for our party of six. Would have been easier for sharing if the servers or chef took notice of this little detail, but nothing to really complain about. The sangria was just average personally. And the place was really quite stuffy, especially in light of the recent bout of high temperatures in Singapore. The aircon was on presumably at full power and we voiced our concern to the servers. While they knew it was warm and humid, they did not really try to alleviate the situation. It was rather energy draining under such humid conditions, and things certainly could have been better handled in this aspect.

A great catch up with friends ended on a bad note with the manager insisting on charging ala-carte price for wastage even if we said we would take away the food. A friend informed the manager that she had diarrhea after eating and simply cannot finish the 1 dish anymore. Yet the manager dared her to see a doctor and provide a medical diagnosis that her diarrhea was caused by the restaurant\s food. Great way to show concern for your patrons. Definitely not returning for a second visit.
