The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore, Part 2 — A Review of Eating Five Times at the Executive Lounge. Absolutely Excellent.

Hello.

This is Dr. Baek from Rev Dental Clinic at Sinsa Station, specializing in laminate veneers and teeth whitening.

In my previous post, I wrote about the basic Marina Bay View Room at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore (the Ritz-Carlton Singapore), right?

It is truly a wonderful place that offers an incredible staycation experience.

Today, I’m sharing my honest experience for those considering visiting the Executive Lounge, which is practically a symbol of the Ritz-Carlton, before their trip.

For reference, we were able to use it for about KRW 300,000 for two people, and we experienced all five periods during our staycation. (There are five periods.)

You can roughly think of them as brunch, afternoon tea, dinner, cocktails, and breakfast the next day. (I made up the names.)

The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

(The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore)

This post will mostly consist of photos.

If you choose to use the Executive Lounge, your key card will be programmed to allow access to the Executive Lounge floor in the elevator. In other words, it will be set up to allow you to enter.

It is an exceptionally clean and pleasant space.

When I went in the morning, it was the first service period, and the staff were busy vacuuming and cleaning.

A staff member welcomed us very kindly.

Naturally, the view outside is of Marina Bay.

There are plenty of seats, so you can sit wherever you like—but be careful, because you could end up somewhere very cold.

Easels and colored pencils are provided so you can draw while looking out over Marina Bay.

I heard they are quite high-quality products, so if you are artistically talented, try drawing a picture!

There were also pictures displayed that previous guests had drawn.

An art student?

Brunch

You can take all the food you want from this space, where everything is visible at a glance.

For reference, during breakfast and dinner, the inner area opens and more hot food is served.

Overall, the food is more in the style of a continental breakfast that Western guests can enjoy comfortably, rather than being heavily Southeast Asian in style.

So you do not need to worry about the food not suiting your taste.

One especially fun point is that a different menu is served during each of the five periods.

You can just look through the photos.

Perhaps because it was daytime, there were many light options such as pickled pork and salads.

Even so, you get full quickly as you eat.

You will keep seeing these bakery items, but they taste really good.

The butter is delicious, and so are the jams.

There are also items that you can hold and eat with one hand like this.

You will see them again during afternoon tea later. :) Haha.

There is also cheese and wine, and you can pour yourself a glass of whichever wine you like.

What was unusual was that the wine bottles were inserted into a machine, and the wine came out of the machine like a vending machine, so you did not have to lift the bottles by hand!

I should have had more... Looking at this now, I really regret it. ㅠㅠ

So we enjoyed brunch with a view of Marina Bay.

For reference, this lounge is a genuinely executive space where you can do a little work on your laptop or chat with your companions.

It is a space where you can relax freely as long as you do not disturb others. That is why it is not cramped!

The restroom is also really lovely, although I did not take a photo. Haha.

Afternoon Tea

There is no need for many words. It comes out as a tower piled high with treats, and if you experience all five periods, you will see that it contains items from somewhere in between them.

They kindly serve two of each item, so you can share them one each with your partner.

For reference, drinks such as iced lattes and iced Americanos are provided without limit, so have as many as you can while you have the chance.

Dinner

As the sun goes down, dinner time approaches.

There is still a generous selection of salad.

It looks quite fresh even just from the photos, doesn’t it?

There are bite-sized items that are easy to eat with one hand.

I liked that they were dishes anyone could enjoy without hesitation.

The fruit is presented much more neatly than I expected.

There is enough time to eat nothing but fruit. The tarts and little coconut sweets also tasted good.

The Ritz-Carlton is truly the best.

These bakery items that we saw at breakfast are still here.

Actually, they are a little different. Dinner is more abundant.

The butter is delicious!!!!

In another space inside, the chef prepares dishes to order.

If you want to enjoy freshly cooked hot meat dishes, you can get them here.

The food provided looks roughly like this.

If I were to give them simple names, there were things like pork cutlets, chicken, and pad Thai. Haha.

And so night is approaching.

I am starting to feel sad. ㅠㅠ When will I get to visit Singapore again...

Cocktail Time

We rallied and came back once more at night!!!

Why?! Because lots of the sweet desserts I love come out.

For reference, many of the items here are shared with those at Colony, the buffet on the first floor.

Even the chocolates in the photo on the right are all for sale...

The cake corner is really delicious.

These are the same cakes that appeared in Part 1, where I introduced the Ritz-Carlton Singapore...

I almost resent being so full because of them~~

Even though we were full, we still tried one cookie each~

We kept eating fruit enthusiastically until the final period. ^^

It really is a dessert paradise. Hahahaha.

We only had about an hour because we were short on time, but it was a truly precious and happy time for the two of us.

I should mention that the draft beer tasted good too~~ Singapore does beer well, too.

Breakfast the Next Day

I was about to give up, but my wife cheered me on, so I pulled myself together and made it to breakfast.

It looks a little Chinese-style, doesn’t it? There is even some kind of pudding...

There is chicken curry as well. Wow, I really respect how the menu changes like this every time.

Of course, the bakery items cannot be left out.

They are laid out very densely.

If you look closely, you will see the word “COLONY.” This is practically breakfast here too~!!

If you come all the way here and do not visit the Executive Lounge even once... that would be foolish.

They really provide a generous selection.

You can have cereal with whichever type of milk you prefer.

The view of the Singapore apartments in the background is charming, too.

Somehow, because it is Singapore, it feels like everything is lined up even more neatly...........

Fruit is provided generously right up to the very last moment!!!

The yogurt is good too—the abundance is something else.

The space where the chef had grilled meat the previous day had been changed into a breakfast area.

They make fried eggs and cook bacon, too~~

Anyway, even the final meal was perfect!! Excellent!! We were happy. ^^

If you plan to stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore, be sure to experience the Executive Lounge.

You may think that KRW 300,000 for two people is certainly expensive, but Lotte Hotel Seoul’s La Seine, which we visited recently, was also around KRW 200,000 per person. It was KRW 160,000 only after applying a membership discount...

You can have five meals... and it is the Ritz-Carlton... The Ritz-Carlton’s first-floor buffet, COLONY, is famous as a great place to eat...

Anyway, this is a highly recommended experience! Make the most of the lounge and enjoy a more generous staycation. :)

I think our next Ritz-Carlton will be The Ritz-Carlton Osaka. ^^

Thank you for reading this long post today as well.

This has been a glimpse into the daily life of Dr. Baek from the dental clinic!!
