Saint Pierre is the newly awarded 2 Michelin star restaurant in the Michelin Guide Singapore, the brainchild of owner-chef Emmanuel Stroobant and his wife Edina Hong.

Known for his Asian-inflected French fare, Liege-born Emmanuel Stroobant creates dishes reflecting his signature style, ie “essence-centric cuisine”.
It is the culmination of his culinary career and personal journey of self-discovery. He is devoted to freshness and quality, and takes a spiritual view of cooking. That is why you will see his menu has strong vegetarian leanings.
Guests love how he uses organic, wholesome and fresh produce that emphasizes on purity and simplicity.

This smart-dressed 2000-sq ft restaurant dons a modern 30-seater dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing a picturesque view of Marina Bay.
The posh interiors are in neutral hues. Pristine white and grey tablecloths deck the tables.
You will see crockery imported from Japan, paired with elegant cutletries made by Christofle, a luxurious French silverware brand. Natural light generously fills the space, creating in an airy-laid back ambiance.

Great choice for those on a date. Why?
Saint Pierre is praised not only for its great views of the marina, but also for its assured service and discreet atmosphere.
I happened to get a table when there were fireworks going on nearby (didn’t plan for it), and it certainly made the meal very magical.

With the Discovery Menu, you’re getting the “Chef’s Choice”, i.e. you entrust your dining experience to Saint Pierre Team as they create an 8-course meal based on highlights from current season.
As the dishes change seasonally, I won’t dwell too much into detail on each item.

This family-friendly atmosphere sets it apart from most fine dining restaurants, usually formal aka intimidating (even for adults).
