Cherry Garden by Chef Fei at Mandarin Oriental Singapore reopened in July 2025 with a refreshed modern look featuring the hotel's updated MO modern colour palette.

We arrived at 7pm and were told that the next seating would be between 8.15-8.45pm. There was not so much to do so we hung around and waited.

D'rim is definitely more expensive than most k-BBQ places but the service is premium and the ingredients are premium. Their side dishes are also uncommon, including wild garlic leaves and watersnail tofu gang deon jang. This was our second time at this restaurant and I am sure there will be plenty more.
