Perfectly fitting into the arena of contemporary creativity while referencing the long local tradition of good food is the much celebrated eatery, Blu. Located within the prestigious Shangri-La Hotel on Orchard Grove Road, Blu has the enviable attribute of being on the 24th floor.

| The space has been designed beautifully to complement the lofty height and its great views of the city. Contemporary elegance is the theme of the venue, yet it retains a subtle warmth which is largely due to the combination of colours and lighting set against a backdrop of beautiful artworks.

While it is a feast for the chic and urbane aesthete, it is not the style alone which draws people to the 24th floor. There is undeniably great pleasure to be derived from gazing across the iridescent cityscape while sipping a glass of superb wine, but it is the food which has earned Blu the reputation of being the place for the discerning modern diner to spend some time savouring the mouth-watering delights. Delights which have been responsible for Blu winning top awards from Wine & Dine magazine and the local edition of the famous Tatler publication.

Like a wizard in his tower, Chef Kevin Cherkas is the innovator wielding his wand to create the range of exceptional dishes which can only be described as magical. Having worked all over the world in some of its most celebrated Michelin-starred eateries, Chef Cherkas came to Blu with a wealth of experience and culinary prowess.
His food displays an ability to take from the most venerable old traditions and reinvent them for the modern palate. In order to achieve this, Blu practices a strict ethic of using only the finest ingredients, sourced both locally and, when applicable, from around the globe.

His talent for creating surprising dishes is widely known, dishes which work in unexpected ways to realize a whole new symphony of flavours. The secret, of course, is to refrain from complication and extract the simple honest flavour from the superior ingredient, then merge it with another treated with same love and respect.
Whether you find yourself savouring the delightful braised pork belly with langoustine and truffle cream or are inspired to try the Wagyu beef tenderloin with onion ice cream, you'll understand how the essential character of the finest produce, expertly prepared, is a fundamental necessity for the success of unexpected pairings.
|
|
| Blu's talent for creating a harmony within the unexpected, coupled with its chic modernist design, has made it not only one of the Best Singapore Restaurants, but one completely unlike the rest. The perfect place to imbibe the flavours of an exotic nation and maybe taste a morsel or two you'll never forget.
