The Concorde Hotel's Spices Cafe in Singapore is the best place in town to go for Lobster. Extending the affordable luxury experience boasted by the hotelier brand, you can induldge in a seafood buffet guilt-free. Two words which pretty quickly grab the attention of most people when used together are affordable and luxury. Lusting for lobster?...Let's go to Singapore's Concorde Hotel! The Hotel is located in the heart of bustling Singapore, between Doby Gaut and Somerset MRT (train stations). Don't let the mall you have to walk through to get there deter you, for walking into the lobby is a breath of fresh air. As you are offered a chilled orange juice and escape the heat from outside, turn left for The Spices Cafe. A classic black and white decor frames the centrepiece of the room; buffet galore. A colourful and varied large display of elegant gastronomical treats will have you returning again and again for ‘just one more serving...' The Cafe (more of a fine dining restaurant than a cafe) offers an extensive menu of local and western tastebud tantalisers.
I tried, and completely recommend a seafood night at this eatery, in particular the one called Lobster is Served (Harvest of The Sea dinner buffet. In fact seafood lovers should be prepared to drool... This is indeed an evening where you are treated to a smorgasbord of fresh, succulent seafood, with each diner enjoying half a lobster (200g) cooked to perfection with cheese sauce and black pepper sprinklings. A menu of crab dishes is presented for your selection; my recommendation is the black pepper crab and chili crab - both large servings and tasting of the heavens. Appetizers of freshly shucked oysters, scallops, prawns and mussels, or fresh sushi and sashimi are on offer. An impressive cooking station serves up pasta with salmon, squids, prawns, live mussels and mushroom sauce, roma tomato and wine. Main course options feature salmon quiche, or non-seafood choices like ox-tail for something different. And for desert? A selection of mouth watering choices such as crème brule, pear tart, coffee Bavarian... are you hungry yet?
Top tip - make your booking early as the restaurant closes at 10pm, and four hours easily passes in the fun of choosing ‘what to have next'.
The best Chilli crab is bigger than your head at Longbeach Seafood Restaurant in Dempsey Hill, Singapore, to no exaggeration! Longbeach Seafood restaurant is famous in Singapore for inventing the dish in 1946, now known throughout the land's culinary scene as a top signature local dish.
Australia's Sydney Harbour Captain Cook Cruise's offers a Sydney dining experience with a lot of pizzaz - sampling first class cuisine aboard a cruise liner! Circling Sydney's waterside by the light of day, under a starry sky or even as a dreamy sun sets over the waters, enjoy iconic sights of the most famous Harbour city as you tuck into a three-course Top Deck lunch cruise.
Gliding past the Sydney Opera House on the very boat reserved for the Pope's visit to Sydney and floating under the Harbour Bridge, The Sydney Harbour Cruise Top Deck a la carte three course menu is presented for your unforgettable dining experience. Lunch is served to you by friendly waiting staff adorned in mood-setting nautical attire and staff serve up the healthy and delectable cuisine with a smile. I recommend the salmon for main as this chunky and crisp, delicious fish accompanied by baked potatoes and tartar sauce will truly make your mouth water. Bookings are taken for lunch or dinner, with a romantic champagne package option. Alternatively, there is a bar if you prefer a spontaneous glass of bubbly once on board.
After food and drinks, head up to the top deck for some sunshine and a sensational view of the dazzling waters, boating life and city-scapes. The best location for happy snapping with you camera is from the top of the boat! When the cruise comes to an end, there are two drop-off points, the final stop is at a Circular Quay, where you also check in and board.
Recommended: Sydney Harbour Cruise by Captain Cook Cruises is a great way for tourists to see popular city icons, and as much of Sydney as they can in a short amount of time, upon dazzling waters and with elegant food! Also a great idea for locals looking for a special occasion meal - imagine what success a business lunch would bring against this backdrop!
