A duo of musicians played and sang wonderful jazz.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Chihuly Lounge is located at a rather open space near the reception of Ritz-Carlton hotel.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Every three months, Chef Terence Pang<\/strong> changes the confections: Chihuly Lounge’s Summer Weekend Afternoon tea buffet<\/strong> ($48++) offers a new and wide range of eclairs\u00a0<\/strong>from 2 June to 26 August<\/strong>, 2.30-5pm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Savories\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

By no means an extensive selection, we can list almost everything:\u00a0cucumber sandwich<\/strong>, tuna croissant<\/strong>, beef bagel<\/strong>, chicken mayo bun<\/strong>, salmon sushi<\/strong>, smoked duck<\/strong>, poached prawns<\/strong>, prawns on skewer<\/strong>, foie gras tart<\/strong>, seafood<\/strong>\u00a0dumpling.\u00a0<\/strong>If you notice the meats, there is NO PORK. <\/strong>Looking out for our Muslim friends, yo.<\/p>\n

The Sweets\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Scones<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Scones<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gold-leaf custard eclair<\/strong> – pretty only.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A macaron eclair – mac-eclair<\/strong>.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Violet eclair<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Black sesame eclair<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The sweets are even more limited: scones<\/strong>, ice-creams<\/strong>, and eclairs<\/strong>. We couldn’t fathom why a chef is stationed at the dessert section even though s\/he isn’t helping with the dessert.<\/p>\n

For the eclairs, we thought they could come in bite-size so that the people can try everything. But if you don’t have space, try the black sesame<\/strong>; and passionfruit-mango<\/strong>. There is a newfangled eclair with gummy-bears<\/strong> on top: we thought it is trying too hard.<\/p>\n

The tea buffet<\/strong> also comes with free-flow of teas and coffees<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: Overall, the food is passable, no major disappointment. The winning point of the restaurant is indubitably the service<\/strong>, one of the best service in Singapore<\/strong>. When my napkin dropped on the floor, the staff actually gave me a new one, instead of just folding it and putting back on the chair, the usual practice. Our free-flow of drinks were always refilled and our plates, cleared. Would we pay $48++ for the food alone? No. Would we pay $48++ to experience such exquisite service and ambience (with live jazz music) on a lazy weekend afternoon with friends and family? Yes, the servers and musicians save the day. Kudos to them.<\/p>\n

Some credit cards have 15% discount<\/strong>. Check with staff. After discount, we paid $48 per person<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
