OUR Power Lunch session was hosted at a fusion restaurant called Ploy, with the managing directors of Asiasons Capital Ltd as our guests. Asiasons is a Singapore-listed niche boutique private equity firm that has a diverse portfolio that includes Chaswood Resources, Liongold, Nirvana and EMS Holdings. It all seemed like an overwhelming load of topics to discuss.
Ploy is privately-owned by Datuk Jared Lim, one of the managing directors of Asiasons and he promptly informed me that their chefs were sent to Bangkok to learn Thai cuisine. They do not serve any Thai dishes but instead develop a monthly changing menu of Japanese and Italian dishes with a touch of Thai. Since it's still the Chinese New Year season, we ordered Ploy's Japanese inspired Yee Sang, accentuated with pine nuts, to begin our meal. Consumers
