The concept
Modern Cantonese built on sharing traditions and gathering at the table — authentic technique, fresh seasonal produce and controlled execution across à la carte, set menus and lunch dim sum, with private dining rooms.
The chef
Chef de cuisine Cheung Siu Kong is a Hong Kong native with more than thirty years of cooking, having started at age seven with his grandmother. He worked at Lei Garden in Hong Kong and then Singapore before joining Summer Pavilion in 2003; his philosophy is modest technique that lets the ingredient's flavour lead.
Getting there
Level 3, The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore, 7 Raffles Avenue, in Marina Centre near Marina Square, Millenia Walk, Suntec, the Singapore Flyer and the Esplanade. Nearest MRT is Promenade (Exit A via Millenia Walk, sheltered), about five to six minutes on foot.
Prices
The Orchid lunch is S$138 per person, the Peony dinner S$188, and the Signature lunch or dinner menu S$328; a vegetarian set lunch is S$85. In practice lunch runs roughly S$100–200 per person and dinner S$150–350, with luxury ingredients priced by weight and market. Prices are before service charge and GST.
How to book
Book via the website, +65 6434 5286 or [email protected]. Reservations are encouraged but not strictly required; book two to four weeks ahead for Friday, Saturday and holidays. Some set menus need a day's notice, and the Yoshihama abalone needs three days.
Opening hours
Daily. Lunch 11:30am–2:30pm (last order 2:00pm); dinner 6:30–10:30pm (last order 10:00pm). No regular closing day.
The room & dress
A contemporary Chinese-garden room with a moon gate, glass-walled main hall, hand-painted Italian tableware and floral motifs, kept polished and quiet with butler-style service and live Chinese flute or piano. Six private rooms seat six to thirty. Smart casual; no shorts, flip-flops, beachwear or sportswear.
A little history
Part of The Ritz-Carlton Millenia's fine dining, the restaurant was completely transformed and reopened in November 2015. Cheung joined in 2003; it earned its first star in 2016 and has held one in every edition since — one of twelve restaurants starred in all ten Singapore editions. It has been a Black Pearl One Diamond since 2018 and made Asia's 50 Best extended list in 2023, the first Singapore Cantonese restaurant to do so.
Who it’s for
For anyone after refined Cantonese beyond the teahouse — seafood lovers (lobster, grouper, abalone, fish maw), families and groups who want to share and use a private room, business meals and Marina Bay-area stayers. Pairs with Gardens by the Bay, Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore Flyer. Not for cheap, casual or experimental dining.
