Set on the southern shores of the tropical island, the newly-renovated Tanjong Beach Club exudes coastal elegance and effortless joie de vivre. Its capacious dining room, housed in the refreshed mid-century modernist duplex, breathes with balmy sea air and wafts of the tantalising wood fire from the Mibrasa grill. The lively smoked Hokkaido scallop aguachile makes for a great opener, setting the table for signatures like the excellent dry-aged barramundi, served with a vibrant tomato vierge and caperberries. For a lighter bite, the lobster tabbouleh is fresh and punchy.
Cool off with cocktails, crafted in collaboration with Cat Bite Crew, such as the refreshing Tanjong Coast, a tropical G&T with guava and ginger. Or break open a bottle of bubbly – expanded Champagne list includes exclusive-to-Tanjong Beach Club magnums like Gounel-Lassalle Esprit Voyageur. Yeti Out, the cross-border music collective who has designed soundscapes for Soho House and Patina Maldives, sets the grooves with nu-disco intertwined with progressive house, funk and worldly beats.
