Freshly-Harvested Seafood

One of the most popular buffet stations was definitely the spread of Freshly-Harvested Seafood, which featured Maine Lobsters, King Crab Leg, Snow Crab, Oysters, Black Mussels, Gong Gong and more. All the seafood we tried was fresh and sweet, particularly the creamy Oysters, plump King Crab Legs and crunchy Prawns.

Sushi Rolls

Next to the Freshly-Harvested Seafood, you will also be able to find a number of Sushi Rolls alongside Japanese sides of seaweed, tamago and more.

Cheese Board

If you are a cheese lover, your eyes will definitey light up at the Cheese Board corner. The myriad of cheeses, condiments and crackers will surely satisfy.

Cold Cuts and Salads

The beautifully plated Cold Cuts and Salads boards offered dishes such as Smoked Salmon, Prosciutto, Beef Salami, Truffle Somen and Salmon Avocado.

Hot Selections

Moving down the buffet line, diners will find a range of Hot Selections as well.

Cheesy Lobsters

On top of the fresh seafood, this corner also featured many seafood dishes, such as the Cheesy Lobsters.

Herbal Prawns

The Herbal Prawns had a comforting broth base that we enjoyed.

Soft Shell Crab

I would highly recommend trying the Soft Shell Crab. The meaty crabs were fried perfectly crunchy without being oily.

Wellness Rice

While we typically avoid having too much carbs at buffets, I absolutely loved the Wellness Rice. As unassuming as it looked, it was generously studded with mushrooms, corn, goji berries and pine nuts. I thoroughly enjoyed how clean yet flavourful it tasted.

Roasted Pork Belly

Before trying out the Festive Roasts, we also tasted the classic Chinese roasts, including Roasted Pork Belly and Roasted Duck.

Pan-Seared Foie Gras

A key buffet highlight is dishes prepared à la minute, such as the Pan-Seared Foie Gras and Pasta Alla Ruota. The Pan-Seared Foie Gras was a crowd favourite, served on a wedge of croffle with sweet fig.

The Festive Roasts station was another noteworthy one, featuring freshly sliced Slow Roasted Bulgogi Glazed Prime Rib, Traditional Roast Turkey and more.

Christmas Desserts

Fans of sweets would be impressed by the room full of Christmas Desserts! It had everything you can think of, from various flavours of log cakes, tarts, cup desserts, etc.

Chestnut Roulade & Apricot Compote

Similarly, there was also a live dessert station for the Chestnut Roulade & Apricot Compote.

Christmas Desserts

The Dining Room is also suitable for bigger group meals, and their Festive Buffet would be an excellent option for the upcoming year-end gatherings.

Seafood on Ice

I always start off buffets at the fresh seafood and sashimi corner. The fresh Seafood on Ice assortment includes red prawns, cherry clams, gong-gong, half-shell scallops, mussels and crabs. They were decently fresh, and our favourite was the prawns.

Cold Cuts & Artisan Cheese

At the Cold Cuts & Artisan Cheese stations, there were mortadella, beef bresaola, coppa ham and a seasonal cheese selection.

We liked how the different Marinated Appetisers were served in small portions for convenience. It also ensures you get a good mix of all the ingredients. The appetisers include Apple Wood Smoked Duck with Mango, Crab Salad and Spanish Potato Salad.

Chinese Roasts

For Chinese Roasts, there was Roast Duck, Hainanese Chicken, Roast Pork and Char Siu Pork.

Noodles

I enjoyed the Signature Laksa quite a lot. The base was rich with a good kick of spice.

Charcoal Grill

The Charcoal Grill station was the most popular station of the night. The eye-catching selection includes Baked Oysters, Australian Beef Steak, Spanish Grilled Pork Belly, Otak-Otak Sausage of the Day and more.

Each diner is also entitled to half a grilled lobster, limited to dinner only.

Local, Chinese, Indian & Malay Cuisine

In other cooked selections, you will find dishes such as Carrot Cake, Indian Spiced Chicken, Roasted Vegetables, Naan Bread, Mutton Curry, etc.

Hot Dessert

If you have a sweet tooth, the huge dessert selection will be very exciting! We started with the rich Praline Chocolate Pudding, which was my dining companion's favourite dessert of the night. Other Hot Desserts include Apple and Raisin Crumble, Bread and Butter Pudding and Nutella Cannoli.

Assorted Nonya Kueh

The Assorted Nonya Kueh towers had Angku Kueh, Kueh Salat, Kueh Talam and Kueh Lapis.

Cold Dessert

There were shooter glasses, eclairs, various tarts and cakes for Cold Desserts. We enjoyed the Signature Mango Cake the most.

Hilton Singapore Orchard has recently opened on 24 February 2022, located in the hearts of Orchard. Following the opening is the launch of the hotel's residential all-day dining restaurant on level five, Estate, inspired by the heritage of Orchard Road’s early years. The all-day dining buffet restaurant showcases culinary experiences and flavours from around the world while elevating familiar regional favourites that resonate with local residents.

Central to Estate's dining experience is the residential-style open kitchens that set the stage for a live display of culinary showmanship. The team, led by Director of Culinary Vijayakant Shanmugam, whips up tantalising dishes a la minute in full view of guests.

Kickstart the feast with cold cut appetisers - Coppa Ham, Salami, Air-dried Beef, and Prosciutto de Parma. or Salads such as the Greek salad with feta cheese, wardorf salad.

The Seafood on ice features a fresh selection, such as the Tiger Prawns, Black Mussels, Clams and Scallops in Shell.

Don't miss signature dishes from the Wok, Fry & Premium Kitchen featuring signatures like the Estate Black Truffle Roasted Duck. The meat is incredibly tender and flavourful. It is served with a drizzle of truffle plum sauce and soy honey glaze, complementing the savoury meat. The Black Truffle Roasted Duck is best paired with a piping hot bowl of flavourful Signature Peking Duck Consomme.

The Grill Kitchen features a selection of Asian-inspired skewers, including the Beef Kebab, Kurobuta Pork Teriyaki, Wagyu Kofta, and Black Miso Chicken.

Not to be missed are the Asian favourites - Singapore XO Hokkien Mee, Carrot Cake with Chinese Sausage, and the Steamed Glutinous Rice with Chinese Sausage, and Crispy Cheong Fun with Soft Shell Chilli Crab.

The Cantonese Style Wagyu Beef Noodle is one of my favourite dishes. The non-oily broth had a distinct beefy taste, noodles were al dente to bite, and the wagyu beef meat was tender and flavourful.

The Squid Ink Homemade Gluten-Free Tagliatelle with Octopus Confit from the Noodle & Wrap Kitchen is also delicious, with a rich, briny flavour.

There is also a Dim sum station which offers a small selection of dim sum - Siew Mai, Har Gow, Lotus Paste Pau and Chicken Char Siew Pau.

End the feast on a sweet note with desserts such as the Rainbow Kueh, Kueh Lapis or the Original Cheesecake.
