Med@59JCT - Singapore

Sophia Goh

Mum said this was the best birthday lunch she’s ever had.

Thank you Natalie and Al for the wonderful food, great stories and the beautiful space for my parents 65th combined birthday! We loved every moment. Will be back 🙂

Portions were generous more than enough for everyone!

The prawns were super fresh and bouncy.

Amazing crunch to the pide.

Croquettes had no fillers and were super soft inside and crisp on the outside.

We really loved the food! Chef Al's and Natalie's hospitality was so genuine and heartfelt. We loved learning more about the history of the dishes from their family and chatting about the whole experience from their point of view as well!

Food was obviously extremely delicious with generous portions. The star of the meal for us was the baked red snapper!! We were stuffed to the brim and wished we had bigger stomachs to experience this amazing dinner longer.

Looking forward to more creations and future events by Med@59JCT!

Booked our 1st Private dining experience with MED59JCT via Seeksophie.

Mr Al (chef & owner) reached out almost immediately via whatsapp. I shared with him our purpose of the meal and he was kind enough to recommend & arrange the dessert as a surprise cake for our friend.

It was 3 Adults Saturday Lunch and it was just us - very lovely and cosy setting. Appt starts at 12pm. Natalie (Wife) and Al (Chef) was very lovely and warmed welcome us into their homes. we are BEYOND SHOCK and until now in AWE of their home.

Al (Chef & Owner) mentioned that the menu changes every time and you won't get the same food.

I always appreciate vendor that prepares in advance without having us wait for our what we paid for. The moment we are done with introduction he started of with the first dish - Vege sticks with hummus & egg plant dip. YUMS and refreshing.

2nd dish was the tomato tart - which at first sounds underwhelming but wow, the tomatoes were specially picked. A Medley of different tomatoes singing in your mouth. very well seasoned and you can tell that Al had put so much heart into it with making sure that the tart retains the integrity of the texture with the topping being a very juicey one. The tart was NOT AT ALL soggy and was really memorable.

I can't remember the name of the dish but it was a samosa shaped cheese filling items that was pipping hot and freshly cooked with a squeeze of lemon. BOMB Dish.

One of my top favourite was a also the very simple but flavour bomb prawns! Very Fresh Very Juicy Very Demure. I had about 6-7pieces on my own without having all of us fight for any. We was generously portioned and we were secretly hoping to have some bread to soak up the access prawn oil at the end of the bowl.

There after we have another star of the show - chicken drumsticks (sorry i didn't catch the name) served with pearl couscous - again, it was 3pax but there was about 7-8 pieces of drum sticks within. VERY VERY Generous. and he made sure his guests were happy and satisfied. Chicken was juice and bone dropping. couscous soaked up the gravy.

Lastly we had a Christian inspired cake with a cross shaped décor above. Al was so lovely to get special 'happy birthday' candles for us and helped us with group pictures.

If you would alcohol option you could do a top up.

We loved that both the host occasionally come by to speak to us about their dish etc and also separately gave us space to catch up giving us good privacy as well.

Lastly, Al was very nice to give us a good house tour and shared with us all this though processes of the house. The details that Natalie and himself put in where amazing and you an see the house full of their life experiences and memories in one sacred space.

They do have cats & dogs but they put them away when they have appts. no signs of smell of animal items around. very clean very considerate. 🙂

Will definitely want to join for other events or sundown cocktails etc at their rooftop attic area in the near future!

Absolutely fantastic experience! The food was amazing! We did the cook with Al experience. What a fantastic culinary journey throughout the Mediterranean. It was a real treat to be able to fold and butter our own baklava - what an intricate and delicate process. The paella, Moroccan cheese brioutes and Catalan coca were absolutely delicious!

More than that, Al is an incredible host with an amazing story. And his beautiful home is a veritable library cum art museum which tells hundreds of stories of its own.

We have done many food tours and cooking classes all over the world, and cooking with Al is truly one of the best experiences we have had - right in our own backyard! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of the experience. Thanks so much Al! We’ll be back!

3rd time we come in 3 months, and always a very different and amazing menu. Al can definitely cook. He also makes us feel home, engaging yet being discreet when needed. The atmosphere is incomparable. We recommend it with full confidence. Cannot be disappointed but will always end thinking when we will come back.

Wonderful experience at the Med last weekend. First time trying Mediterranean Food and it blew my mind. Nat took the time to show us around the house and it was beautiful.
We were led to the roof top during sunset and the view was stunning.
We had some snacks at the roof top while they were preparing the dinner.
After sunset, we head down to have dinner.
Strongly recommend!
Love ALL the dishes presented.

Delicious meal in a gorgeous setting. Nat and Al are the ultimate hosts. I have literally never been so stuffed but I couldn’t stop eating because everything was so tasty. From their own olives to perfectly baked bread, every dish was thoughtfully made and presented. The meatballs stuffed with melted butter and pistachios, the oranges with herbs. Wish I had two stomachs. 🙂 Cannot wait to go back.

Celebrated our engagement at Med@59JCT and had such a wonderful and charming experience! Al and Natalie were the best hosts you could ask for, from start to end. They were so generous, kind, and charming as they shared the intentions and origins behind each dish and design choice. I loved hearing about how they chose to emphasise some of the Peranakan and Chinese design elements of the house whilst infusing it with their own identity and culture!

The house was as beautiful as the food was delicious - we came here for a meal, but left with so much more!
