The Bar and Alfresco at Four Seasons Singapore

If there’s one thing the Four Seasons is known for, it’s an exceptional level of service. At its newly revamped bar and alfresco space, the staff makes you feel like you own a million bucks from the moment you sit down. Waitresses flock to you bearing a menu, a multi-tiered snack stand containing – no, not plain peanuts, but freshly roasted pepper-coated almonds, and even your choice of newspapers. Meanwhile, the lounge songstress croons breathy, jazzy tunes while small groups of businessmen sit around shuffling documents in the luxuriously designed space. Boasting warm, earthy tones both in the interior bar and the outdoor alfresco areas, the latter in particular evokes a laid-back natural setting with its verdant landscaping and sandstone installation-slashwaterfall. Couple that with a delicious martini (try the Passionfruit, $28) that they shake vigorously in a showy display at your table, and you’ll be wishing you had a room there.
