For those (with deep pockets) who are looking to impress, here are some romantic and luxurious restaurants which you can consider for your next date.
TL;DR: Expensive Restaurants To Splurge On Your Date This Valentine’s Day
1. Zen
Zen provides an interactive dining experience where diners will traverse through the three-storey shophouse that the restaurant occupies.
The first floor boasts an open bar concept which serves exquisite appetisers.
There, the chefs will personally introduce the ingredients that will be used for the evening’s meal.
After the introduction, diners will head up to the second floor for their main course.
After eight courses, they are then moved to a grand living room situated on the top floor.
That’s where they can lounge on plush sofas while enjoying desserts, drinks, and petite fours.
