ORIGIN GRILL

Shangri-la Hotel, Singapore, Lobby Level, Tower Wing, 22 Orange Grove, S(258350) TEL: 6123 4595

Led by chef de cuisine Heidi Flanagan, Origin is a dependable choice for quality steaks. Classic dishes are capably executed in a refined manner, presenting uncomplicated, comforting and satisfying fare that celebrates the fresh produce used. The ingredients featured are sourced sustainably wherever possible; these include line-caught seafood from marine-certified coasts in Indonesia, the Philippines and

New Zealand, as well as meats that are sustainably farmed and antibiotic-, hormone- and crueltyfree. Start your meal with charred octopus with smoked paprika, a welcome introduction to the restaurant’s practiced repertoire. Choice cuts include the snow-aged full blood Wagyu (A4), which is aged in a traditional snow-covered room to develop its sweet yet mellow flavour. The interior is both elegant and inspired; designed by the firm A Work of Substance, it draws influence from the oldworld charm of train travel with its graceful arches and booth-style seats, in a subtle nod to the crosscultural influences featured on its menu.
