Just came back from Barcelona, and the food here is as close as it can get. Highly recommend the Traditional Cannelloni and Roasted Octopus for authentic Catalan food. Their Beef Wellington( is one of the best I’ve ever had steak was very well cooked with buttery puff pastry surrounding the juicy protein), and everything on the dessert menu; Creme Brulee, Orange Ice Cream Souffle and Pear-Infused Wine were a good round up to a delectable meal. There were surprise factors to the creme brulee and souffle, I’ll leave it to you to try them and experience for yourself.
Gaig Singapore is tucked in a little homely shop house on Stanley Road. Amazing tapas that truly bring out the best of Spanish ingredients. Crystal bread was so good I can easily order a serving all by myself. Wine is reasonably priced. Main courses were very well executed and dessert was awesome. The service was top notched!
Tried Catalonian food for the first time at Gaig and it was outstanding. My photos really don't do them justice, but the cold tomato soup with jamon ice cream and fideua with carabinero prawns were excellent. I especially loved the fideua. We also tried the stuffed pigeon, cannelloni, txangurro, crispy bread, and Catalonian creme brulee. They were all fantastic. The sangrias were also really delicious (both red and white).
Beyond the food, the service and setting were also excellent, homey, and unpretentious. This will definitely be one of our go-to places for a special occasion.
Second time we came here with my husband to grab lunch in his break. Nice cosy restaurant to get together and slow down a bit. Literally as we didn't have data on our phone. 😊 I think it's a plus, but for busy business men might be a downside.
Food is great and a good choice is the executive lunch menu. Value for money. However I would not choose the crema catalan next time. The portion is huge, tasted delicious, but not great to have so much sugar at the mid of the day. I feel that the serving should be smaller. This was the first that came into my mind when I saw it. And I didn't change my mind by the fact that I liked to eat it. It was just way too much.
One other suggestion would be to change the serving plate of the crocette as it was so oddly dangling around on the blue plate.
Had a great 1st meal here. Food was amazing. Started with the salmorego tomato soup so rich. Beef and pork pasta cannelloni was recommended and glad we ordered it. Octopus with cauliflower was very tender. Fiduea was full of umami but maybe a tad oily, still very yummy. Other reviewers said the white wine sangria as refreshing, but I personally preferred the red wine sangria. Can't go wrong with either to be honest. Will be back again, maybe try the beef Wellington.
I loved all the tapas & mains I ordered. The stand out would be the fideua which was flavourful and the prawn head was AMAZING. The desserts I would give a miss, not bad but not great either. Would definitely go again to try more things!
Liked the food!
Was pleasantly surprised with Salmorejo soup which was a cold tomato soup with jamon ice-cream. The mix of thick sour tomato soup and soft and sweet jamon ice cream was an interesting combination.
Aside from the soup, I tried out the jamon croquette, traditional cannelloni, skrei codfish, and creme brulee. Looking forward to returning and trying out their other items.
Great service!
Navin helped me choose food items that will go together as well as a wine to complement the meal. He also explained the food items and what flavors to expect and look for.
