Of Evening Cocktails @ Pacific Club Lounge Pan Pacific Singapore

0 comments
Evening cocktails and canapés are served at the Pacific Club Lounge from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Was excited to check this out, and thus, here is the collection of the items enjoyed for the 2-nights stay.

Taittinger Brut Réserve,  canapes


The menu is different for alternate days, so one gets to try different canapes throughout their 2-nights stay. I did inform the staff to tone down on the quantity served since am only dining solo, but I think in general, they were still trying to keep me well-fed. Hahaaa!


Menu for Mondays and Thursdays


Marinated Mixed Olives, Beetroot Tzatziki, Comte’ Cheese with Crackers

a
Poached Prawns and Pineapple Chutney 


The menu indicated it as poached prawns and pineapple chutney but it looked and tasted like ngoh hiang though. Was amused and yet wondering if there's anything wrong with me...

At first the bright pink of the tzatziki looked suspicious. However, it tasted pretty refreshing with mild sweetness. Loved it with those thin as wafer super crunchy sesame crackers.

Beetroot Tzatziki and crackers

Grilled Chicken Sausage with Mustard and Cornichons 


The chicken sausages were of a texture that I enjoyed. Bouncy and soft.


For Day 2, I had skipped the Afternoon Tea in a bid to save some stomach space for the canapes and drinks.


Menu for Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays


Grilled Lemon Grass Chicken


Deep-fried Mushroom Spring Roll

Chickpea Hummus

no idea what this was but it was tasty with the jam


I think this had tuna in it


I felt the canapes and hot items served on Friday, fared better than the Thursday menu. The cheese served was the same though. For Day 2, I opted to try the cocktails, thus ordered the lychee martini and margarita. Boy, I didn't know that they'd make it this strong. Wow!

Staff at Pan Pacific are generally sweet. I was given a birthday card with signatures from them and best wishes for the special occasion. Thank you !

thank you for making this special

[Staycation] The Pacific Room Experience @ Pan Pacific Singapore (Pre-HA)

0 comments

Booked direct via hotel website about a month in advance. Then, only to discover that Amex had an ongoing promotion for rebate of $60 for $300 and above spending under the Pan Pacific hotel group. However, not applicable for online payment. Darn.

Never mind, since can't be helped. The room rate was the best, in comparison with Agoda, Bookings.com etc. Non-refundable though.

Was given the 12.30pm check-in timing, and there was a queue at the general reception counter, manned by two staff. My line was pretty slow, and after 10 minutes, the concierge started to reallocate the guests to other counters on the inside. Alas, there was just another person in-front of me, yet had to wait another 10 minutes till I was moved to another counter.

Nevertheless, Crizel at the counter was friendly and I got my room key cards without any hassle. She wished me an advance birthday too. Lovely, for noticing.

Was pretty excited to see the room, as this is my first time staying in a luxury hotel, and where its lounge access is touted as one of the best in Singapore.

lift, going up

Loved the transparent lift as one could enjoy the outside sceneries while moving up. Was given a room at Level 33, so quite happy with this arrangement.

spacious workdesk

I love Nespresso


As I opened the cabinets next to the bed, discovered the wine glasses and the space where the kettle and instant coffee is stored. Nice. TWG tea in abundance too. Lovely.

complimentary non-alcoholic drinks


plenty of bottled water


The King-sized bed was lovely but I do think the bed is positioned a tad higher than other hotels as I needed to 'climb' up the bed. I'm 1.58m.


The bathroom is spacious and there's a bath tub with bath salt provided. Nice. Plenty of towels too.

toilet

shower

I think this was my first time seeing such a contraption in the shower of a hotel. The many many nozzles that  looked like it could be for massaging effect? Tried to turn it on but only the lower two nozzles had water coming out of it. Interesting but it took up quite a bit of space in there.

toiletries

pretty in white

bath salt provided

Soaking in the bath tub was rather nice and relaxing. Size of the tub is good.

Was informed during check-in that the room will not be cleaned on a daily basis unless guests requested for it by phone call, on the day that the room requires cleaning.

To view the in-room dining menu, one could do it from the TV or via the app to 'converse' with Mika, the hotel Digital Concierge.

The Pacific Room comes with Champagne Breakfast (served at The Edge), Afternoon Tea and Evening Cocktail (served at Level 38 Pacific Club Lounge).
