The Tiffin Room at Raffles Singapore and the Michelin-starred Benares of London collaborate to honor the rich heritage of Indian cuisine.
From the 18th to the 20th of September, Tiffin Room at Raffles Hotel Singapore is collaborating with Benares, a Michelin-starred Indian restaurant from London, to offer a unique culinary experience. This collaboration results in a multi-course tasting menu that celebrates India's culinary heritage through the lens of two distinct culinary philosophies.
At the helm of Benares is Chef Sameer Taneja, who has led the restaurant to a Michelin star in 2021 and has retained it in subsequent years. Chef Taneja's approach blends precision and innovation with the deepest respect for heritage, pairing the finest seasonal British produce with bold, authentic Indian spices.
In Singapore, the collaboration sees Chef Kuldeep Negi, Chef de Cuisine of Tiffin Room, and Chef Sameer Taneja co-creating the September menu. Chef Kuldeep trained in the culinary capitals of India and presents his experience with touches of contemporary artistry in Tiffin Room's signature tiffin boxes.
The collaboration is a cultural exchange, with Chef Kuldeep traveling to Benares in August and Chef Sameer coming to Singapore. The menu features a blend of both chefs' signature dishes.
Some highlights of the menu include:
- Malabar Scallops: Hand-dived Scottish scallops baked on the shell, served with a fragrant coconut curry and a Malabar paratha.
- Bread Pakoda: An elevated take on a North Indian snack, featuring a golden-fried bread with a spiced potato filling.
- Gosht Kali Mirch: Tender lamb shank slow-braised in black pepper.
- Chukundar Kofta: A beetroot hash brown in a delicate fennel and cashew korma.
- Murgh Makhani Roll: A stuffed chicken leg wrapped in smoked saffron onion gravy.
- Madras Lump Crab Rice: Fragrant basmati enlivened by Madras spices and sweet crabmeat.
The collaboration also offers a curated wine pairing for SGD 108++, featuring a Blanc de Noirs Champagne and three other handpicked wines.
