| Egg Benedict with Asian Crab Salad |
Hilton Celebrates 100 Years of
Hospitality. Lobby Lounge at Conrad Centennial Singapore partakes in this
celebration through its 100 Years of Hospitality Afternoon Tea. Let us enjoy
the signature dishes popularised by Hilton through its 100 years of Hilton
Hospitality.
 |
| 100 Years of Hospitality Weekend Afternoon Tea Menu |
The first course for Weekend
Afternoon Tea is Seafood Platter on Ice. Consist of Poached Boston Lobster, Prawns
and Irish Oysters. The freshness of the seafood really shines here. The lobster
prawns are firm and springy, and I have both of them plain and really enjoy the
natural sweetness of the seafood. The Irish Oysters are briny and sweet, and I
just need to use a few drops of lemon juice.

To accompany the seafood is the
newly crafted mocktail made from chrysanthemum, calamansi and leatherwood
honey. It is fragrant, refreshing with solid leatherwood honey at the end. It
really well with the seafood.

For those having the free flow of
sparkling wine, Nino Franco, it will be served after the first course. Of
course, you can have it earlier if you wish.
The Second Course drew
inspiration from Waldorf Astoria NY 1894. Egg Benedict with
Asian Crab Salad, served with Hollandaise and Smoked Paprika. The crab salad
replaces the original bacon. We were a bit curious that the service staff used
a food trolley to serve the egg benedict. We were then informed that Hilton is
the first hotel to introduce in-room dining in the hospitality industries.

The eggs are well poached, topped
with solid creamy hollandaise sauce. The crab meat is refreshing and upping the
game for the standard of an ordinary egg benedict.
 |
| Savory and Sweet Treats |
Third Course Savory delights consist
of Waldorf Salad (from Waldorf Astoria NY 1894), Chorizo
Pate and Burrata Pincho, Cucumber and Cheese Pincho and Homemade Dill Gravlax, Horseradish
Cream Cheese, Caviar.

The Waldorf Salad is crunchy, juicy
and helps to cleanse the palate, while the Cucumber and Cheese Pincho has a
more neutral flavour as the cucumber offset the saltiness in the cheese. The Chorizo
Pincho has a good touch of spiciness and the Homemade Dill Gravlax is a tad too
salty.

Sweet Treats of the third course represents
the Hilton creations from around the world. Walnut Brownies
(Palmer Hilton, 1893), Pina Colada (Caribe Hilton, 1954), Cream Cheese Red
Velvet Cake (Waldorf Astoria NY, 1950), Gin and Tonic Panna Cota (Conrad
Centennial Singapore 2016), and Strawberry dip Vanilla Milk Chocolate.

Without a doubt, these are the
highlights for the Heritage Afternoon Tea. The Walnut Brownies are just
classic, solid brownie base, topped with cream and covered in white chocolate. The
Red Velvet Cake is soft, moist and fluffy.

The adorable looking coconut shape
Pina Colada is made from solid dark chocolate, filled with coconut milk cream.
While Gin and Tonic Panna Cota has a nice tangy gin and tonic jelly on top,
followed with a rich creamy base. The Strawberry dip Vanilla Milk Chocolate is delicious
and the sourness from the strawberry helps to balance the sweet offerings here.

Scones are the Fourth Course of
the afternoon tea. Served with Clotted Cream, Orange Jam, Homemade Strawberry
Jam. There are two types of scones, plain and raisin. The Orange Jam and
Homemade Strawberry Jam are delicious and made a good pairing with the scones.
