Following a multimillion-dollar asset enhancement programme spanning nine months across key facilities within the hotel, Orchard Hotel has unveiled an enhanced 360° guest experience with reimagined dining, events and lodging offerings. Upgraded areas include the hotel’s 260 Grand Deluxe Rooms, Grand Ballroom, Conference Centre, Lobby, The Orchard Cafe and Bar Intermezzo.

The storied history of Orchard Hotel traces back to late 1950s, where it began as a humble four-storey, 34-room hotel, complete with The Golden Venus – home to popular tea dances and emerging musicians of the 1960s. Redeveloped in the 1970s to cater to the tourist boom, the old building was eventually demolished in 1978, and the first inkling of the 656-key, twin-tower Orchard Hotel Singapore as it exists today took its place.

A brand new arrival experience welcomes guests through an enlivened lobby interior. The hotel's iconic clock tower is now brought to the modern age with a contemporary chandelier-inspired art sculpture, flanked by two upgraded dining and drinking destinations. The Orchard Cafe renews its legacy as a local dining icon with a vibrant new style and Signature Class buffet showcasing heritage-inspired creations and chef-curated classics. Bar Intermezzo inherits an air of sophistication with new, inviting interiors and contemporary botanical-influenced cocktails that toast to Orchard Road’s past. Overlooking the lobby from the second floor is Cantonese fine dining stalwart Hua Ting Restaurant, which was also given its own extensive makeover in 2018.

New and improved event solutions for every occasion come on the back of 11 refurbished conference and function rooms and spaces – now each more versatile than ever. A key highlight includes one of Singapore’s largest pillar-free grand ballrooms—occupying over 10,000 square feet and six metres high—refitted with a luxurious fresh new look, two floor-to-ceiling LED walls (a first in Singapore), statement lighting, state-of-the-art audio-visual capabilities, an impressive foyer lined with floating Orchid-inspired chandeliers, and exclusive spaces carved out for various uses. The conference centre has also been redesigned with five intimate meeting rooms and upgraded meeting facilities. Event planners will now have the luxury of choice with creative catering options from the hotel’s four award- winning culinary concepts—Hua Ting Restaurant, The Orchard Cafe, Mon Bijou and Bar Intermezzo—as well as a Halal-certified kitchen, ensuring that all tastes and diets are catered for.

260 Grand Deluxe guest rooms in the hotel’s Orchard Wing have also been given a facelift. Each well-appointed room has been elegantly designed to provide maximum comfort and the best of living styles at every turn. With today's sophisticated traveller at heart, the newly refurbished rooms are now equipped with upgraded amenities including Handy smartphone that offers unlimited mobile data to make local and select international calls; six USB ports and both wired and wireless high-speed internet to ensure 24/7 connectivity; and a Smart TV loaded with a variety of channels to keep them plugged into current affairs.

One-Ninety, the modern Asian brasserie at the Four Seasons Hotel Singapore, is now open after a botanical transformation. The new dining destination in town is poised to tease and please with its Asian twist on wholesome Provençal cuisine.

The ambience of the restaurant is an extension of the heritage-botanical inspiration that very recentlytransformed the hotel’s rooms and suites. The same tropical influences now effortlessly infuses the menus that feature fresh, seasonal and daily-sourced produce.

“The light, natural colours and textures echo our lush surrounds while feature Peranakan tiles celebrate our unique heritage,” says Peter Draminksy, Regional Vice-President and General Manager. “The elevated all- day dining space pairs perfectly with One-Ninety’s exciting menu designed to introduce new and unique epicurean experiences that delight, furthering our mission to ensure superior dining, exceptional service and, of course, authentic Four Seasons charm.”

Newly minted Restaurant Chef Kamarl John leads the culinary brigade and was previously from Four Seasons London at Ten Trinity Square. Most recently he was with Adrift by Michelin by celebrity Chef David Myers, in Singapore. Having spent the last year in the city state and around Asia, Chef Kamarl is constantly fascinated by the vibrant food heritage of Asia and even more so with the Lion City. From the nation’s instrumental role as a key entrepôt on the Spice Route in the 17th Century which naturally made it a melting- pot of culture and cuisine, even to this day.

Showcasing the culinary craftsmanship driving the cuisine at One-Ninety, every meal begins with Artisan Sourdough with Seaweed Butter. Sourced from artisanal mills in Hokkaido Japan, the flour is only produced upon each order. Ground by hand and blended to our specifications, each loaf is baked fresh daily in their very own ovens.

“My Philosophy when it comes to food is to use quality ingredients and let these shine by balancing them with clean fresh flavours. This creates an experience where the guest leaves happy and appreciative of natural,wholesome cuisine that excites and comforts all at once,” shares Chef Kamarl.

These are a few of their signature items on the menu:

Foie Gras Toast, Black Winter Truffle - A classic French combination with Creamy Foie Gras & fragrant Périgord Black Winter Truffles on lightly toasted Brioche.
Seasonal Seafood Tower - Featuring some of the finest quality seafood from Southeast Asia, Japan & North Atlantic Ocean in Europe. Highlights include Hokkaido Scallops, King Crab, Blue Fin Tuna and responsibly farmed Maine Lobster in Singapore. Served with their house-made sauces such as Calamansi Aioli & Young Ginger Vinaigrette, which are infused with some of Singapore’s mostrecognizable ingredients.
Blue Lobster with Yuzu Kosho Butter - Wild Blue Lobsters caught in the North Atlantic Ocean waters between England and France are pan roasted then served with homemade cultured Yuzu Kosho Butter which is poured table side.
Snapper Bouillabaisse, Spicy Daikon, Lemon Grass - This traditional Provençal fish of market-fresh roasted Red Snapper, Clams, Tiger Prawns and Bouchot Mussels in a broth of potatoes, garlic, ripe tomatoes and a bouquet of herbs and spices, is made extra special with spicy daikon and lemon grass.
Iberico Pork Presa, Star Anise, Pineapple Chutney, Celeriac Purée - The Presa is a specialized muscle within the shoulder that is tender and juicy. The marbling of fat that runs through the IberianPork has earned it a reputation as the “Wagyu of Pork” and its high concentration of healthy, oleic acids is balanced with sweet and sour pineapple chutney spiced with star anise, complemented further by celeriac purée.

Patrons / Guests can also look forward to One-Ninety's Semi-Buffet Lunch / Brunch.

Shatoburian is an exciting new concept in Japanese Yakiniku dining that recently made its debut at Palais Renaissance. Connoisseurs and lovers of prime Japanese wagyu beef would already be familiar with its sister restaurant, Black Cow, which is beloved for its exceptional Japanese wagyu beef and farm-to-table approach.

Like Black Cow, Shatoburian’s menu features prime cuts of Japanese Wagyu beef and fresh seasonal ingredients from different regions in Japan. The owners also frequently source for ingredients abroad to infuse a modern twist to Japanese cuisine. Depending on seasonal availability, diners at Shatoburian have the opportunity to savour caviar and foie gras from France, as well as high-end truffles such as French Périgord, Alba White, and Manjimup Black truffles from Italy and Australia.

‘Shatoburian’ is derived from a phonetic play on chateaubriand, which as Wagyu aficionados know, is made from the most tender cut of the cow. The restaurant prides itself on serving primarily Hida Wagyu Beef – winner of the coveted prize in the Wagyu Olympics and favoured for its unique juiciness and mesh-like marbling in most cuts. Hida cattle originate from Takayama in Gifu Prefecture, Central Japan and they are bred in a wide expanse of land with plenty of clean air and spring water.

The restaurant practises sustainable cooking, so it imports the entire Wagyu cattle (nose to tail approach). This means diners at Shatoburian have the opportunity to sample a wide selection of over 30 different Wagyu beef cuts presently not widely available in Singapore.

One of the highly recommended Wagyu cuts on Shatoburian’s menu is misuji, which comes from the shoulder clod also known as oyster blade (flat iron). This scarce cut yields enticingly complex and rich flavours, and is a scarce cut because only 3kg is available from one animal. Shatoburian offers A3 & A5 grade marbling for this cut. Other selections of Wagyu include tokujo rosu, which is premium lean meat and zabuton, a medium cut that is evenly marbled with a lovely, balanced flavour.

Diners with a more adventurous palate must give the tongue moto or the fatty tongue a go. The highest quality portion of the root of the tongue, tongue moto is a beautiful pink colour with just the perfect amount of fat. Savour this appetising dish in all its crispy, pleasant firmness, and juicy flavour. Sliced like fresh mango cubes to enhance the texture of the meat, this special cut is also styled to resemble thepattern of the partition behind our chef’s special counter table.
