Pacific Emporium @ Pan Pacific Singapore - New English Afternoon Tea Experience

From now till 18 November 2026, Pacific Emporium at Pan Pacific Singapore welcomes guests to enjoy a cosy afternoon with its new English Afternoon Tea, inspired by timeless English classics.

English Afternoon Tea 3/5

Served daily, with two seatings available: 1pm to 3pm and 4pm to 6pm. On weekdays at $58++ per person, look forward to an elegant three-tiered afternoon tea set, complete with a choice of one main course.

On weekends, the experience transforms into a buffet spread for $68++ per person, with unlimited servings. Top up $20 per person to include a glass of Taittinger Brut Réserve Champagne.

Royale Lavender Earl Grey

We visited on a weekend, where the experience began with a refreshing Royale Lavender Earl Grey welcome drink. Delicately flavoured with Earl Grey tea, lavender and lemon, it had a lovely pink hue.

Corn Parfait

Mini Salmon Bagel

Virginia Ham Quiche

Bacon-wrapped Shrimp

Chicken Tea Sandwiches

The savoury selection featured Corn Parfait, Mini Salmon Bagel, Duck Rillettes Mille-feuille, Virginia Ham Quiche, Bacon-wrapped Shrimp topped with Blackcurrant Glaze, and Chicken Tea Sandwiches.

Duck Rillettes Mille-feuille

We preferred the Duck Rillettes Mille-feuille most, which had a crisp exterior topped with Siberian caviar. The plum confit added a pleasant tang.

Braised Beef Short Ribs

Fish and Chips

Among the Chef’s Speciality Showcase, the Mango Pani Puri is exclusive to weekends. The other four dishes, Classic Chicken Pie, Fish and Chips, Braised Beef Short Ribs, and Kedgeree, are offered as the main course choice on weekdays.

Mango Pani Puri

The Mango Pani Puri is a DIY station. Diners can fill the Pani Puri shells with vanilla sauce, mango compote, mango boba and rice krispies. While it was fun to DIY, we found the mango compote too sweet.

Kedgeree

Kedgeree is a classic English curried rice dish served with quail egg and smoked haddock.

Classic Chicken Pie

Our unanimous favourite, however, was the comforting Classic Chicken Pie, generously filled with mushroom chunks and chicken in a creamy Alfredo sauce.

Japanese Custard Pudding

Pink Grapefruit Mint Gateau

Corn Roulade

Overall, we found the sweet treats more memorable than the savouries. Highlights included the Raspberry Hazelnut Royaltine, Corn Roulade, Pink Grapefruit Mint Gateau, Japanese Custard Pudding and Pistachio Kunafe-style Tart.

Pistachio Kunafa-style Tart

While the Pistachio Kunafa-style Tart leaned on the sweeter side, we enjoyed the contrasting crunch from both the kunafa and the tart shell.

Raspberry Hazelnut Royaltine

The Raspberry Hazelnut Royaltine was rich and chocolatey, though we wished it had a little crunch for added texture.

Classic and Yuzu Scones

We appreciated that both the Classic and Yuzu Scones were served warm, accompanied by honey, raspberry jam and traditional English clotted cream.

For beverages, each diner may choose two selections from the TWG Tea collection or Robert Timms coffee menu.

Tong Le Private Dining @ OUE Tower - A Taste of Tóng Lè’s New Seasonal Creations

The only revolving restaurant in Singapore with breathtaking city views, Tong Le Private Dining continues to set the bar for elevated Chinese dining with the unveiling of its latest seasonal menus. Helmed by Senior Executive Chef To Kwok Kim (Chef Dicky), the refreshed offerings span across its Executive Lunch, themed menus and the indulgent Tong Le Experience Menu, alongside a comprehensive selection of à la carte and vegetarian options. Thoughtfully curated, the menus bring together modern flavours, innovative techniques and premium ingredients, reflecting a refined interpretation of contemporary Chinese culinary artistry.

Parma Ham, White Pepper, Marinated Lettuce Stem 4.2/5

We began with the Parma Ham, White Pepper, Marinated Lettuce Stem ($18), a visually striking appetiser that showcases precision in both plating and flavour pairing. The lettuce stem, cut into neat cubes, delivered a refreshing crunch with natural sweetness, while the delicate saltiness of the Parma ham provided a savoury counterpoint. A gentle sprinkle of white pepper tied the elements together, enhancing the overall profile without overpowering the dish.

Crispy Bean Curd Sheet Rolls 5/5

The Crispy Bean Curd Sheet Rolls ($18) followed, offering a satisfying textural contrast. Golden and crisp on the outside, the rolls encased a hearty filling of porcini mushrooms and mixed vegetables. Each bite revealed an earthy depth from the porcini, complemented by the vegetables’ natural sweetness and crunch, making it both comforting and flavourful.

Caramelised Barbecued Pork 4.2/5

A highlight from the barbecue selection was the Caramelised Barbecued Pork ($38). Executed with finesse, the cut struck a desirable balance between lean meat and a hint of fat, resulting in a tender yet structured bite. Served theatrically on a hot stone, the sauce was poured tableside, caramelising upon contact to form a lightly charred, glossy coating. Importantly, the glaze leaned towards a restrained sweetness, allowing the natural flavours of the pork to shine.

Double-boiled Fish Maw and Boneless Chicken in Jasmine Tea and Bamboo Fungus Consomme 4/5

For a lighter interlude, the Double-boiled Fish Maw and Boneless Chicken in Jasmine Tea and Bamboo Fungus Consomme offered a soothing clarity. The consomme was delicately perfumed with jasmine tea, lending a subtle floral aroma that elevated the clean, comforting broth. The fish maw and bamboo fungus added gentle textural contrast, making it both nourishing and refined.

Baked Western Australian Lobster 4.5/5

Chef Dicky’s expertise truly came through in the Baked Western Australian Lobster. The lobster was impeccably cooked, retaining a succulent, bouncy texture. Cloaked in a creamy mild cheddar cheese sauce, the dish leaned into a rich, indulgent profile, further layered with the earthy notes of morel mushrooms and the sweet-savoury nuances of Chinese sausage. This East-meets-West composition was luxurious yet thoughtfully balanced, delivering complexity in every mouthful.

48 Hours Slow-cooked Pork Belly in Aged’ Hua Diao’ 4.8/5

Equally memorable was the 48 Hours Slow-cooked Pork Belly in Aged’ Hua Diao’ ($20/pax). The pork belly was cooked to perfection, achieving a melt-in-the-mouth texture that spoke of patience and precision. The aged Hua Diao lent a deep, aromatic richness to the sauce, enhancing the overall depth of flavour. Accompanied by soft, fluffy mantou, it invited diners to savour every last drop of the luscious gravy.

Claypot Foie Gras, Fried Jasmine Rice, Saga-gyu, Black Pepper, Caramelised Soy Sauce 4/5

The Claypot Foie Gras, Fried Jasmine Rice, Saga-gyu, Black Pepper, and Caramelised Soy Sauce ($16/pax) delivered comfort with a touch of decadence. Fragrant and hearty, the dish combined the richness of foie gras and Saga-gyu with well-seasoned fried jasmine rice. The addition of crispy puffed rice introduced a delightful crunch, elevating both texture and enjoyment.

Creamy Strawberry, Lychee, Raspberry Crisp, Rose Cookie 4.2/5

Dessert came in the form of Creamy Strawberry, Lychee, Raspberry Crisp, Rose Cookie ($20/pax), elegantly presented in a cocktail glass. Light and refreshing, it resembled a delicate smoothie, with the sweetness of strawberry and lychee brightened by the tartness of raspberry. The rose cookie added a subtle floral finish, rounding off the meal on a gentle and uplifting note.

Tong Le Private Dining’s latest seasonal offerings demonstrate a confident interplay between tradition and innovation, in which classic Chinese flavours are reinterpreted with finesse and creativity. From refined soups to indulgent mains and thoughtful desserts, the experience reflects Chef Dicky’s commitment to delivering a cohesive and elevated dining journey.
