The Argentum Group will officially introduce a new multi-dimensional F&B brand, Foodology with the opening of an 8,000 square feet international market-restaurant at Marina Bay Financial Centre in January 2013.
As the first physical front of the new brand, Foodology will be offering you an amazing variety of restaurant-quality fare, with quick and personable service at reasonable prices.
Catering to the demographic of executives at Marina Bay Financial Centre and their appetite for comfortably-priced international selections, they will offer the best mix of Western and Asian fare with multiple specialist sections.
In line with Foodology’s principle of bringing restaurant-quality food, they utilise world-class equipment used in Michelin-starred establishments worldwide. The Grills & Burgers section will feature the famed Spanish Josper Grill, the hottest indoor double ventilated closed door charcoal grill found in the kitchens of some of the world’s top chefs including Gordon Ramsay. Pizzas in Foodology’s Italian section will be baked in a wood stone pizza oven, which not only ensures an intense cooking environment, but will be a visual centerpiece dazzling patrons with oven flames. Wood stone pizza ovens are used by California Pizza Kitchen, Wolfgang Puck, Whole Foods Market and Marriott Hotels & Resorts.
Foodology will also be an evolving space as its 300 seat capacity will be cozied-down to a bar and dinner concept afterhours. The intelligent use of space and Foodology’s stunning interior has been conceptualized by award-winning architecture and interior design firm eco.id Architects and Design Consultancy, in collaboration with graphic design firm Somewhere Else Design Studio.

Brawn Steakhouse, a new European-influenced fine dining steakhouse has recently opened its doors at Marina Bay Financial Centre. Aimed at the connoisseur with refined taste, Brawn prides itself in serving only unparalleled, top quality imported ingredients from France, USA, Australia and New Zealand.
Brawn is also the first steakhouse in Singapore to offer the nouveau chic sensation of US Black Cherry Wood grilling. Immensely popular in Europe, Australia and US fine dining, this is an indulgence that must be experienced firsthand by meat lovers. High end US Black Cherry Wood is usually reserved for expensive carpentry and furniture, Brawn however, uses it on the grill where the wood burns at a high temperature, searing in the flavours and giving it a distinctive, rich aroma and taste unlike any other.
Must try items on the Brawn menu include its signature 21-day dry aged ribeye and striploin steaks. The dry aging process requires special preparation that can only be performed on the highest grade beef available (each steak must high and even marbling). The steaks are then hung to dry for at least 21 days in a temperature and humidity controlled chiller. The process evaporates water and breaks down the tough connective tissues in the beef, resulting in an intense flavor and a decadent, melt-in-your-mouth tenderness.
For meat lovers who have tried it all, Brawn is one of the few steakhouses to offer less conventional cuts such as the cube roll and Wagyu D-rump. Diners with an appetite should not miss out on the Cote De Boeuf, a 1.5 kg steak, slow cooked to perfection. Tender inside and out, succulent and dripping with juices, this is one of the biggest steaks in Singapore and a gastronomical feast for the whole table to enjoy.
All steaks at Brawn Steakhouse are chosen from select stock that best accentuates the defining qualities and characteristics of each cut. Traditional favourites like Fillet Mignon and Rib Eye are at their most sumptuous and flavoursome using only Meyer Angus and Angus Certified, USA imported, corn fed cattle, while other cuts, such as the Tenderloin and Short Ribs are chosen from Diamantina, 100 days grain fed Australian cattle. At Brawn Steakhouse, each steak is chosen from the best possible beef, guaranteeing you the best steak every time you dine at the restaurant.
Brawn Steakhouse also caters to lovers of other fine foods. Seafood lovers should not miss the opportunity to treat themselves to the 72 hours marinated fresh Norwegian Salmon (appetiser), Whole Dover Sole (main), a rarity in Singapore but a delicacy of European cuisine. The highlight of the seafood offering is the seasonal Gratinated Live Lobster. Other must try items include the Duck Liver and Black Mussels.
For dessert, a selection of homemade pastries and traditional French favourites including Chocolate Fondant with Crème Anglaise, Tarte Fine and Norwegian Omelette flambé with Galliano (ice cream with biscuit topped with meringue).
Brawn boasts one of the best stocked wine cellars in all of Singapore with many rare and older French vintages available to provide the perfect complement for your meal. A certified Sommelier from the Court of Master Sommeliers will be happy to suggest one of over 100 labels for you. A bar with a full selection of premium single malts is also available.
For a quick lunch, diners can enjoy a gourmet burger /sandwich or a main salad and a soft drink at $18++. This option is available for takeaway. Lunch time diners in the mood for a real lunch can enjoy a full three course meal at Brawn. Consisting of a soup, salad or appetiser, a main (choose from beef, seafood or salad main) and a dessert, the lunch set is offered at the attractive price of $38++. The set-lunch menu changes on a weekly basis.
The elegant, 78-seat, mahogany-hued restaurant is luxuriously decorated with elegant contemporary furnishings with wall-to-wall beveled mirrors and modern chandeliers. Ample seating space allows for an intimate dining experience, while soft, warm lighting provides a relaxing ambience, perfect for a special occasion. A private room is available for up to 14 guests.
