Located within the Eco Botanic enclave, surrounded by a cluster of established dining spots, Temper at Eco Botanic brings its signature open-fire philosophy into the neighbourhood.
•
Upon entering, the towering cow sculpture immediately commands attention. The first floor is dressed in natural stone textures and muted earthy tones, with the open grill taking centre stage and setting the rhythm of the space.

Head upstairs and the atmosphere shifts. The second floor feels noticeably quieter and more intimate, with softer lighting, comfortable seating, and a more secluded layout suited for small gatherings or celebratory meals.

We were treated to a generous spread across the menu.

From the Sea & Fire

From the Grill
- Black Angus Tenderloin
- Ribeye
- Dry Aged Organic Chicken

While the beef cuts impressed, the Danggui Lamb Burger was an unexpected highlight. Aromatic yet balanced, it avoids any zi char heaviness, with lamb that is remarkably tender and clean-tasting.

Carbs
* Wagyu Claypot Rice
* Truffle Mushroom Pasta
* Miso Seafood Pasta
The clear winner here is the Wagyu Claypot Rice. Finished with bone marrow and a beef patty, then mixed through crisped rice, it delivers layers of aroma, richness, and texture in every bite.
