Burger & Lobster Opening Second Singapore Outlet At Raffles Hotel’s Arcade
And it’s thrice as large as the Jewel Changi branch.
Westies, soon, you won’t have to schlep all the way to Jewel Changi Airport for your Burger & Lobster fix. There’s a new Burger & Lobster outlet opening at Raffles Arcade, the shopping and eating enclave within Raffles Hotel which reopened today after almost two years of restoration works. The hotel itself is only partially open at the moment.
Larger flagship outlet
Don’t get too excited yet, though. Burger & Lobster at Raffles will only open for business in the last quarter of this year as a “more refined, elegant” version of Jewel’s outlet. This more centrally located branch will be Burger & Lobster’s flagship outlet in Singapore — it’s three times larger than the space at Jewel and includes an al fresco bar area. Unlike the Changi branch, however, the restaurant here will not boast two floors. It takes over the space previously occupied by mod Asian restaurant, The Halia.
Wider menu options
There’ll be an expanded menu at the upcoming flagship eatery. “This branch promises to spoil diners with a wider selection of lobsters, burgers, oysters and cocktails, reflecting the dedication to quality synonymous with their London menu which uses the same fresh lobsters from Nova Scotia and Nebraskan beef patties, in a setting befitting the iconic sophistication of the Raffles Hotel Singapore,” says the press release. There’s no confirmation on exactly what those new items are yet, however. But of course, we’re told by the PR rep that the restaurant’s signature dishes like The Original Roll ($40), Original Lobster ($65) and The Mayfair ($25) burger will also be served here, and quite likely at the same prices as at Jewel Changi Airport, too.
The details
Burger & Lobster’s second branch will be located at #01-25, Raffles Arcade, 1 Beach Rd, S189673.
