Culina at COMO Dempsey is hosting a Westholme wagyu showcase with an exclusive menu over two nights this August.
Wagyu beef fans would no doubt have heard of Westholme Wagyu. Well respected in global culinary circles, the Northern Queensland-based Australian producer combines the finest Japanese pedigree cattle and Australian ranging techniques to produce some of the best wagyu beef around the world. Westholme beef is particularly known for consistent fine marbling, juicy tenderness, and a deep, rich flavour.
For the longest time too, highly-prized Westholme Wagyu cuts can only be found in the finest restaurants across Singapore. And limited on an allocation basis too, no less. Increasingly the prized beef has – thankfully for Singapore gastrophiles – become more available, and now can even be found over the counter at the meat section in premium grocer Culina.
If you’re looking to explore the wonders of Westholme Wagyu, the bistro at Culina at COMO Dempsey will be hosting a special Westholme Wagyu dinner showcase over two nights on 27 August and 3 September 2022. For ‘The Westholme Wagyu Experience’, Culina’s Executive Chef Timothy de Souza will be putting together a six-course dinner featuring the top grade wagyu cooked in different ways.`
