I went to Blackwood in the Marina for my friend's birthday dinner last weekend.

Rating: ★★★★

Type: American/Thai Fusion

Serves: Breakfast/Brunch, Lunch, Dinner

I ordered: One Percenter's Burger ($18) which includes a Wagyu patty, millionaire's bacon, Vermont white cheddar, arugula, cilantro aioli, and potato wedges.

I had the patty cooked medium rare, that's how I always eat beef. The burger had solid flavor. The millionaire's bacon was particularly delicious with a maple syrup taste to it. It was thick sliced and fatty. I wouldn't eat the garnishes toothpicked on top of the burger - my friend tried, then made a funny face. Salad was standard, dressing was not overpowering. I do not like potatoes or fries so I didn't eat those.

The presentation of the dishes is nice. One of my friend's plates was flaming. Sorry, didn't get a pic!

Overall: I want to try their breakfast items, since that's my favorite meal of the day. The burger is good but not amazing. Solid 4 stars.
