The menu revives flavours from Raffles’ early dining rooms and evokes the elegance of Victorian dining rituals, served on the hotel’s iconic vintage silverware. A thoughtfully curated beverage programme pairs old- and new-world expressions with bespoke alcohol-free creations inspired by Nanyang flavours.
