Money can’t buy you everything, but lots (and lots) of it – SGD $2.7M to be exact – can now buy you the world’s most expensive dining experience in Singapore.
Russian diamond group World of Diamonds (WOD) and CÉ LA VI Singapore have joined forces to orchestrate this star-studded evening for two. The world’s most expensive dining experience includes an 18-course culinary extravaganza and a diamond ring valued at a whopping S$2.7M. While most of us will never get a taste of this expensive dining experience, we can, at the very least, dream it. Now picture yourself on a rooftop helipad, we are about to go right into the deets and take you on a mind-blowing adventure.
Most Expensive Dining Experience – Getting There
This eight-hour expensive dining experience with your partner kicks off with a 45-minute helicopter ride. The ride will give you an unobstructed view of the city skyline against the backdrop of a setting sun. A Rolls-Royce pulls over upon landing, and you proceed to get chauffeured in style to catch a luxury private cruise along the Singapore River. This opulent river adventure ultimately takes you to your end destination – Marina Bay Sands.
Customised Designer Armchair Souvenir
On the 57th floor of MBS is where you embark on the gastronomic voyage of a lifetime. Your personal waiter casually hands you a massive bouquet of 10, 000 fresh roses. Next, he’ll proceed to pull out a custom-made, designer armchair and usher you to take your seat. These personalised chairs were thoughtfully customised to complement your home décor by the way, which makes them one of the souvenirs of the night.
Menu & Wine
Fresh belon oyster with champagne foam, air-flown Alaska wild salmon, Applewood grilled mishima sirloin and slow cooked pigeon are some of the dishes in the 18-course. It is a modern Asian degustation dinner that you will be eating, with diamond-studded chopsticks engraved with your names. At this point, try not to pinch yourself too hard just yet – there’s more to come.
These exquisite dishes are paired with some of the finest wine selections in the world. 1988 salon ‘S’ champagne, 2008 Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru and a 1972 Oremus Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos among many other distinguished bottles available at your disposal. Take in the 360-degree view of the glittering city lights and music from a live band as you sip on vintage wine and savour each of the 18 indulgent dishes.
2.08-carat Jane Seymour Vivid Blue Diamond Ring
Fireworks promptly go off in the night sky as your approach the end of your meal. The starry highlight of the evening – a 2.08-carat Jane Seymour Vivid Blue diamond ring – is presented alongside Louis XII de Rémy Martin cognac to cap off the expensive dining experience. This masterpiece of a jewellery is in a class of its own. Blue diamonds of this size and saturation are known to be among the rarest and most sought after gems in the world. An overnight stay at this 5-star hotel is complimentary, if desired. You will wake up the following morning wanting to relive the moment over and over again.
Be it a wedding proposal, an anniversary or a celebration of a good, good life, this elaborate execution by WOD and CÉ LA VI is one of epic proportions. There is a catch, though – this diamond-studded package will only be sold to qualified individuals. You will need both the riches and the fame to be worthy of this beyond royalty experience. The rest of us? We can just dream.
