Ginger Lily

Nestled on level five of Hilton Singapore Orchard, Ginger Lily unveils a delightful offering that transcends traditional afternoon tea experiences. Beyond being a botanical-inspired lobby lounge and bar, Ginger Lily introduces a remarkable Nikkei-inspired afternoon tea curated to perfection. With artisanal cakes crafted by the talented Chef Cindy Khoo and craft cocktails infused with native herbs, flowers, and spices, this culinary journey promises an extraordinary fusion of Japanese and Peruvian elements.

This new chapter in afternoon tea begins with an invitation to indulge in a glass of champagne, setting the tone for a luxurious experience ahead. As the tea service commences, guests are treated to an array of savoury and sweet delicacies that redefine the conventional afternoon tea spread.

Embark on a culinary adventure with the refreshing Nikkei-style salmon, skillfully paired with crispy quinoa, kyuri, and yuzu sauce, tantalizing the taste buds with its tangy and invigorating flavors. The savoury offerings continue to impress with innovative creations like the Shishamo Bun, featuring a fusion of siracha, jalapenos, and furikake encased in traditional Nikkei bread, alongside the Kurobuta Pork Sando, boasting tonkatsu sauce and black garlic aioli for a delectable twist.

One of the highlights of this unique afternoon tea is the interactive presentation of Nikkei-inspired Nigiri, meticulously prepared and torched before guests' eyes. The bite-sized Nigiri sushi showcases flavours such as Foie Gras with Nikkei ginger teriyaki and Maldon salt, White Fish with Shiromi chili and Aji Amarillo, and Maguro Chutoro with orange ponzu glaze and wasabi. This table-side service adds an engaging element, making it a truly immersive experience for afternoon tea enthusiasts.

Chef Cindy Khoo's artistry shines through in the Japanese-inspired patisseries, featuring delights like Matcha & Sudachi, Japanese Mango Cheesecake, Muscat Anise Shortcake, "Strawberry" Miso Tart, Hokkaido Potato Moelleux, Mikan Cacao Pepper Choux, Red Tea Azuki Dorayaki, and Sesame Finger Cookies. Each dessert is a testament to her culinary prowess, offering light, delicate, and refined flavours that elevate the entire experience.

To complement this gastronomic journey, guests can choose from a selection of 10 premium teas by Gifel Tea or opt for a flavourful cup of coffee. The experience culminates with a choice of two flavours from the tea list, including the specially curated Ginger Lily house blend, ensuring a harmonious pairing with the exquisite delicacies.
