One of celebrity chef Tetsuya Wakuda's signature dishes is ocean trout confit, but he has never served it at his restaurant Waku Ghin in Marina Bay Sands. The dish will finally make its debut here this week as part of an exclusive showcase of Australian produce.

The dish, which has been served in his restaurant Tetsuya's in Sydney since the 1980s, will be part of a dinner series called An Australian Adventure with Seasonal Produce. The series starts today and ends on Thursday.
