Thanks to its lofty towers standing at over 190 metres high, Marina Bay Sands is home to a couple of sky-scraping dining venues, namely: Steak restaurant Spago, Italian restaurant and rooftop bar LAVO, and three-in-one restaurant, bar and lounge CÉ LA VI. These all serve Western nosh, but new contender Jin Ting Wan (金蜓湾) is here to bring some fresh variety with its Chinese menu.
Perched on the 55th floor of MBS Hotel Tower 1, the 166-seater Cantonese restaurant offers panoramic views of both the city and sea, and is the first and only Chinese fine-dining venue that’s fully developed, owned and operated by Marina Bay Sands itself.
There’s a clear aura of elegance here with Song Dynasty-inspired interiors in regal shades of blue and gold. The food here is meant to reflect a similar level of refinement, where traditional delights like premium seafood, roast meat, and dim sum are elevated in simple, unpretentious ways that still hold true to their roots.
Pair your meal with an extensive selection of Chinese wine – Jin Ting Wan is said to have one of the biggest collections of Chinese fine wine in the country, as well as rare vintages that you won’t be able to find elsewhere. There’s also a special in-house tea programme where you’ll be able to sip on curated tea blends.
If you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply want a more intimate setting for your gathering, book a private dining room or suite, with ornate decor inspired by mountain villas for ancient nobles. There’s also a chef’s table and tea lounge with dragonfly motifs that tie in nicely with the restaurant’s name, which directly translates to 'gold dragonfly'. While the dragonfly is a symbol of gracefulness, it’s also an apt nod to how the winged creature is often seen flitting about over the waters in the Marina Bay area.
Jin Ting Wan will open its doors at Marina Bay Sands Singapore in mid-2025. Find out more about here and stay tuned for more updates.
