Following the official completion of the redevelopment of Grand Hyatt Singapore, 10|SCOTTS welcomes you back with the relaunch of its Grand Afternoon Tea. This thoughtfully curated semi-buffet celebrates provenance and sustainability, and rounds off the experience with a tableside tier of desserts.
Artisanal Cheeses & Charcuterie
The savoury spread showcases artisanal Cheeses, Charcuterie, seasonal produce, and the chef’s signatures. The cheeses are specially selected from Les Frères Marchand, one of France’s oldest and largest cheese-maturing houses with a heritage spanning 7 generations. These prized cheeses are paired with freshly shaved charcuterie and the quintessential accompaniments of nuts, dried fruits, chutney, and olives.
ASC-certified Smoked Salmon
Sustainability takes centre stage with highlights such as the ASC-certified Smoked Salmon, responsibly sourced in line with Aquaculture Stewardship Council standards, paired simply with horseradish cream and capers.
ASC Seafood Vol-au-vent
Chef’s Signature presents ASC Seafood Vol-au-vent, a delicious buttery pastry generously filled with prawns, crab, and seafood bisque, delivering rich, crustacean-driven flavours.
Tomato Toast with White Anchovies
Spanish Gazpacho
On the day of our visit, a standout was the Tomato Toast with White Anchovies, where the natural sweetness of the tomato harmonised with the savoury anchovies. This was complemented by a Spanish Gazpacho, which brought out the bright, refreshing flavours of fresh tomatoes.
Salad Counter
Roasted Pumpkin with Yoghurt
At the Salad Counter, crisp organic vegetables were offered alongside antipasti, condiments, and house dressings. A plated salad of Roasted Pumpkin with Yoghurt added warmth, while fresh figs made a delightful seasonal appearance.
Scones
Scones were served warm to the table, accompanied by clotted cream, jam, and kaya. The kaya, with its mousse-like texture, was lighter than the traditional version, making it a perfect complement to the buttery scones. The jam leaned slightly tart, adding balance.
Vanilla Mille-Feuille
Red Wine Poached Pear
The dessert tier is also served at your table. A supposed Vanilla Mille-Feuille with Red Wine Poached Pear turned out closer to a French butter cookie, crunchy and buttery, though it veered a touch cloyingly sweet.
Citrus Pavlova
Opera Cake, Raspberry Fruit Tart, Chocolate Mousse
The Opera Cake stood out for its deep coffee intensity, while the Citrus Pavlova was dainty and airy. A Seasonal Fruit Tart rounded out the set, marrying tart raspberries with a sweet, custard-like base. While the savouries stood out, the sweets as a whole felt a little too sweet, which overshadowed some of their finer details.
Overall, while the sweet offerings leaned a little too sweet for my palate, the savoury selections were well-executed and memorable. With wooden bookshelves reminiscent of a library, plush couches, and inviting seating arrangements, 10|SCOTTS feels less like a restaurant and more like a grand living room, offering a warm, comfortable escape from the bustle of Orchard Road.
