The Vault 21 was recommended to us by the hotel we were staying at. It’s a trendy place with cool decor. I ordered the duck risotto and it was delicious. The duck was soft and the fat was rendered down, so delicious. Will definitely go back!!!

Love the atmosphere and vibe of the place, perfect for a fancy Saturday night out with friends. We ordered the roast pork belly steamed buns, plum wood smoked lamb rump bruschetta, smoked pork spare ribs, Korean fried chicken, and a couple of wines beers and sodas.
The pork belly in the steamed buns had somewhat crispy skin, and tender meat that was marinated well. The meat could have been more tender, it didn't really fall apart in your mouth.
Lamb rump bruschetta was great, it had a medium rare slab of tender lamb layered on top of a creamy bean salad that complemented the strong flavour of the pomegranate essence. It was cold and refreshing.
The pork ribs had a kick of spice and was sweet, salty, and sticky with the hoisin sauce. The meat didn't quite fall off the bone and was a bit hard in some places but it was still delicious.
Lastly the Korean fried chicken, it was nicely deep fried and the coating of batter was thin and crispy. The sauce was creamy although not very spicy. However I was disappointed because it was simply chicken bites, and not at all the authentic Korean fried chicken - including the sauce.
It came out to be 150 for 4 people so quite overpriced, but I would come from time to time for a fancy night out.

Vault21 kindly sponsored my blind date (Street art for the first sight) and offered a free drink and small dish.
I was definitely intrigued by their pretty extensive menu, decent pricing and ambience. I knew then I wanted to come back. Their menu was an asian inspired mix of small dishes and main kitchen meals, a very interesting take if you ask me.
I got the espresso martini, my date got the Hangzhou cooler, and we both ordered the smoked ribs.
Espresso martini for you coffee lovers out there, even though I’m not a huge fan of coffee, this was an icy blast! Couldn’t finish it though, coffee is just too much for me!
The hangzhou cooler was goooood, it was like sprite!!! Super delish.
Smoked ribs smelt amazing, and they photographed really well under flash lol. The flavour was really exquisite, Smokey and sweet and sour with tang and spice. The meat was lacking a bit but overall quite tender and flavorful. They serve 5 pieces. The only con about the ribs were that some hits were slightly too charred. 4/5
Also a brief mention of their cutlery-they provide knife, fork and chopsticks. Very interesting. Found out that the owner was chinese, made more sense on the asian fusion twist of the menu!
