Newly opened SKAI is a lively contemporary grill, situated on the 70th floor of Singapore’s acclaimed Swissôtel The Stamford. Iconic city views, seamless service and bespoke beverages create the perfect ambience from which to savour Executive Chef Paul Hallett’s finely crafted menu of sharing dishes, all ofwhich feature a truly personal and progressive touch.
Growing up with rich agricultural surroundings in Wales cultivated Chef Paul’s deep-rooted belief for using only high quality produce and natural ingredients, an evident trait which has been incorporated into SKAI’s menu. Melding his signature culinary flare honed through years of experience
and with a passion for butchery, Chef Paul brings to life a menu tailored to social dining, with sharing dishes expertly infused with tasteful Japanese accents. For lunch, guests have the choice between a three or four course set menu, artfully put together with quality grains, salads as well as
fresh and tasteful mains. A must-try from the lunch menu is the Loch Fyne Smoked Salmon Fillet, its flavours delightfully enhanced with a harmonious pairing of King Crab, Wakame and Shellfish Broth.
The dinner menu features a series of appetising sharing plates and Ishiyaki, presenting an assortment of fresh fish, seafood and prime meats. A highlight from the dinner offering is the selection of artisanal beef specially sourced from Australia, America, Japan and Ireland – grilled to perfection in SKAI’s Josper Charcoal Oven. Equally impressive is the array of mouth-watering desserts and photogenic pastry spread, all masterpieces created by Chef Koo Jee, Winner of the Singapore Pastry Cup 2017.
The sensory journey concludes on a high with signatures such as the Caramelised Soy Bean Cheesecake with Miso Fudge, Citrus Jelly and Lemon Sorbet; and the more refreshing Yuzu White Chocolate with Yuzu Confit, Curd and Lychee Compote. A selection of fine wines, beers and craft cocktails perfectly complements the sky-high dining experience which – set against a beautiful backdrop of the Singapore skyline – takes the wine and dine experience to new heights.
“SKAI is a culmination of many months of hard work, from procuring top quality ingredients, and perfecting the visual presentation to honing specific grill techniques and flavour pairings for a unique dining concept. I am very excited to be able to work with an amazing team who are all as passionate as I am to fulfil the vision of SKAI as the most coveted new dining destination in Singapore.” says Chef Paul.
The spacious interior takes inspiration from modern Japanese simplicity, featuring light maple wood, minimalistic clean lines and vertical design features, organic textures as well as soft natural hues and warm tones – elements that make up the sophisticated urban setting with an invitingly relaxed atmosphere. Seating over 130 guests, the venue provides casual lounge-style dining with a residential design aesthetic to give a sense of modern living. Paired with genuine, friendly service, it makes for the perfect social setting to suit all occasions. SKAI is part of a dual lifestyle concept and also features a vibrant craft cocktail bar, set to impress the most discerning of drinks enthusiasts. Inspired by Mother Nature, the pioneering concept weaves organic elements from different altitudes into its bespoke cocktail offering.
