  There were mixed reviews about this restaurant, mainly because of its theme. Like you had to sit on a wheelchair while having your meal. The chinese are very superstitious about sitting on wheelchairs. Take Dick Lee for example when he had to attend a birthday party held there. He asked for a normal chair.
  
  The amazing thing is how they make the lychee caviar. Its liquid but turns into a gold golube like the picture above when dropped into water.

  And make your patrons sit on wheelchairs, then serve them a bowl of rice, with the chopsticks stuck in like burning joss sticks. Perfect.

  The executive chef of Aurum is Edward Voon who used to be from Dolce Vita. Ate there once when it was still under him. Not too impressed.
