8. Dom Pérignon Plénitude Suite at Stellar at 1-Altitude

Perched on the 62nd floor of One Raffles Place and nestled inside Stellar at 1-Altitude, this eight-seater private dining room (called the Plenitude Suite) boasts sweeping views of the Marina Bay.

But when the lights dim and the meal commences, it's the dining table that quite literally sets the stage for the evening, not only in the multi-course feasts by executive chef Christopher Millar, but also in the light projections that illuminate the entire table.

Those who have dined at Ultraviolet by Paul Pairet in Shanghai might find the audiovisual theatrics familiar, but here, Millar has a few more surprises up his sleeve, one of which involves guests being blindfolded as servers set the scene for a twinkling finale.

As the Plenitude Suite was developed in collaboration with French champagne house Dom Perignon, diners can expect to sip on vintages – such as the Dom Pérignon Oerothèque Rosé 1993, Dom Pérignon P2 1995 and Dom Pérignon Rosé 1988 Magnum – that are not available anywhere else in Singapore.

A dedicated suite concierge can help to arrange for limousine transfers, live entertainment, and more.
