Grand Hyatt Singapore’s award-winning mezza9 is the mother of all international buffets. It is our all-time favourite dining spot in town, and the chefs never ever disappoint.

For New Year’s Eve, mezza9 is launching a carefully curated lavish buffet spread featuring Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Western cuisines. You can also look forward to a sustainable crustacean bar, artisan charcuterie, a premium selection of cheeses, decadent desserts and more.

Other than mezza9, you can also dine in style at other restaurants in the hotel such as StraitsKitchen, Pete’s Place, 10 SCOTTS and Oasis Restaurant.

There is indeed no other better place than Grand Hyatt Singapore to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Eve in style!

The highlight of this year-end extravaganza is the Belle Époque countdown party. Held at Grand Hyatt Singapore’s grand lobby, you can indulge in free-flow non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages including Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque vintage champagne.

MEZZA9

The spacious international buffet restaurant is helmed by Chef Martin Satow who is a strong believer of sustainable seafood.

Six open and theatrical kitchens await and each station is fronted by its own talented team of chefs. Watch them up whip up a storm and serve you the best and freshest ingredients.

From Blue Swimmer Mud Crab, Fine de Claire Oysters, Maine Lobsters, Red King Crabs, Spencer Gulf King Prawns, Scottish Brown Crabs, South Patagonian Queen Scallops, Tasmanian Blue Mussels to Vietnamese Lala Clams, the options at mezza9′s seafood bar will spoil you silly.

Continue your seafood rampage at the Japanese live kitchen, where you can feast on sustainably sourced fishes served in the following styles—sashimi, sushi or smoked.

Sink your teeth into unlimited portions of Hot Smoked ‘Galway Bay’ Salmon, superbly fresh Yellowtail Kingfish Sashimi, Yesso Scallop Sashimi and Norwegian Atlantic Salmon Nigiri etc.

For elderly parents and in-laws who prefer Asian food, they will be pleased to discover that mezza9 boasts a plethora of authentic Asian delicacies. Think Chinese Roast, Double-boiled Soup, Wok-fried Meat, Thai Barbecue and of the like.

Do not miss out the Chinese Red Garoupa Fillet—this succulent white fleshed fish is steamed with black garlic, Chinese wine and soy sauce. It was the epitome of comfort food amidst luxury.

The expanded Thai kitchen has rolled out several tantalising Thai classics, namely Gai Yang, Isaan Sausage, Moo Yang and Som Tam. The resident Thai chef’s interpretation of Gai Yang is basically a Thai-style chicken thigh marinated with honey and pandan and grilled till tender.

Loosen up the belts and it’s time to stuff yourselves further with mezza9′s spit roast and grills. Watch in awe as the in-house rotisserie roast the British Red Poll Prime Rib in front of you.

You can also expect aromatic superior meats grilled over yarrah hard wood, i.e. Grass-fed Lamb Saddle, Free-range Dingley Dell Pork Rack and Free-range Corn-fed Chicken.

Having wine and cheese is a wonderful way to unwind after a long day.

Cheese connoisseurs can savour different cheeses of various origins such as Littly Lily from the UK, La Tur from Italy and 24-month Comté from France. Eat these cheeses together with the array of gourmet charcuterie—chorizo, duck rillette, game terrine and iberico ham.

Of course, no celebration is complete until the desserts are served. Lo and behold, as we present to you, the prettiest homemade ice cream available in the following flavours: Chocolate, Pistachio, Salted Caramel and Strawberry Cheesecake.

The buffet is inclusive of free-flow selected soft drinks, juices, tea, coffee, beers, cocktails, red/white wines, prosecco and PJ Grand Brut Champagne.

Like being in your living room where you can host a group of close friends over drinks, the cosiness is unrivalled and one that replicates the warmth of home. Or, it can make a quiet meeting place to have coffee with your clients over some corporate talks. It also works as a lovely library where you can enjoy some me-time and retreat into your shell.

On days when you feel like taking a break and giving yourself a little treat, the afternoon tea at 10 SCOTTS at Grand Hyatt Singapore is just the thing you need. It comes in an elegant two-tier glass tray that is packed with lots of goodies.

There is a also a self-serve freezer that houses a varying selection of salads, cold dishes and homemade ice cream as well as a communal table with over six different freshly made desserts. The stars of the show include the anti-griddle fried egg – with vanilla ice cream forming the egg white and mango passion puree representing the yolk – and a beautiful flower pot dessert that is really a generous helping of salted caramel ice cream and chocolate soil, topped with chocolate brownies and delicate edible flowers.

In addition, the afternoon tea comes with a selection of hot dishes from the live station, cold cuts, artisan cheese and bread. And the best part of it all? Everything that you are served with at 10 SCOTTS’ afternoon tea is refillable. The only danger is you will end up eating more than you should.

mezza9

It could have been the nine different dining experiences – deli, yakitori grill, sushi-sashimi bar, the grill, steam basket, the patisserie and the martini bar. It could have been the convenient and accessible location at Grand Hyatt Singapore.

But one thing is for sure – mezza9, located at the mezzanine level of the hotel, is always packed with loyal customers who return time and again. The focus on the quality of food and service, coupled with the lively atmosphere in a trendy and contemporary interior, is a sure-win formula and precisely the reason why mezza9 is a gem.

mezza9 will be having a festive ala carte menu from 1 – 25 Dec 2013. Now, this is where the real show is, and we promise it is a meal that is well worth every penny, and will not disappoint.

Starters consist of a refreshing Baked Oysters “Florentine” – a tray of ocean goodness covered generously with cheese, spinach and Mornay sauce, and the Truffled Egg – which is bound to be a crowd’s favourite because the combination of black winter truffle, cream spinach and chicken veloutee is simply brilliant.

Brewing in the soup pots are the traditional Beef Goulash that is ever heart-warming, and a highly addictive Butternut Pumpkin Soup that Chef Martin had specially reinvented with his inclusion of orange, pernod and pumpkin seeds. We cannot decide which one we prefer, but we’d suggest downing one bowl each!

For the mains, expect an Australian Grass-fed Tenderloin “Chateaubriand”, Fondant Potatoes, Festive Vegetables and an incredible sauce that is matched to complement the myriad of flavours.

And what is a Christmas feast without desserts? How about a serving of the very pretty Berry Pavlova that comes with a scoop of fresh passion fruit ice cream? Chef Martin has also redefined Caramel Custard with a Spiced Red Wine Poached Pear and Williams Pear sherbet, and the custard is that of a beautiful, creamy texture that leaves you longing for more.

And last but certainly not the least, mezza9′s take on the classic Christmas Pudding – perfected and flamed with Irish Whiskey and Vanilla Ice Cream; talk about ending the night on a sweet note!

For Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day lunch, mezza9′s Christmas buffet has lined up a spread that will set your heart aflutter, and some of the star dishes include a 18-hour Braised Venison Ragout that is laid atop a bed of Spaetzli, Red Cabbage, Mirza Apple; Roast Turkey with Cranberries and Gravy; Beef Sirloin ‘Wellington’ with Truffle Sauce; Marzipan Stollen; and Christmas Plum Pudding with Brandy Sauce.

The Christmas Eve dinner is S$178++/pax with free flow of champagne, red & white wines, or S$128++/pax without alcohol. And the Christmas Day lunch is S$248++/pax with free flow of champagne, red & white wines, or S$188++/pax without alcohol.
