Exquisite Traditional Indian Cuisine @ Tandoor, Holiday Inn Orchard City Centre
Author: Alexius Chua If you are in the mood for something fancy and Northern Indian, head to Tandoor, a restaurant synonymous with authentic traditional Indian cuisine at Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre. The premise is beautifully decorated with a contemporary vibe, right at the very end a floor-to-ceiling see-through kitchen window so you can see the chef prepare your food. We had the non-vegetarian set menu, which is all beautifully presented and taste as appealing as it looks, worthy of the Singapore’s most awarded Indian restaurant namesake. This only gives me wonder how the vegetarian set menu looks like, only if I have two stomachs! The first dish is…

Staycation at Swissôtel Merchant Court

The check-in process was swift and I was also given Niu Niu upon check-in. You can see him later.
