Silver Shell Café

Silver Shell Café is the all-day restaurant at Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa, a beachfront resort on Siloso Road. It sits on level 3 of the hotel and serves meals from breakfast to dinner. You can eat from a themed buffet or order from the à la carte menu.

Children have their own menu, which makes it an easy pick for families staying on Sentosa. Wine and cocktails are served alongside the food.

The dinner buffets

Dinner buffets run every night. Some things stay the same all week, such as seafood on ice, sushi, cheese and a dessert spread. There are live cooking stations as well. On top of that, each night has its own theme:

• Flavours Around the World: Southern American and Spanish dishes, plus Asian, Indian and Western food.
• Meat Lovers Night: roast meats cooked in both Asian and Western styles.
• Singapore Good Ol' Days: local dishes such as satay, bak kut teh, char kway teow and black pepper crab.
• Tropical Night: lighter dishes with a fruity, tropical twist.
• Seafood Sensation: the top night of the week, built around premium seafood prepared in different ways.

The theme schedule can change, so check which one runs on the night you plan to visit.

The setting

From its spot on the third floor, the restaurant looks out to sea. There is an air-conditioned dining room and an open-air terrace. Ask for a window table for the best view. The mood is relaxed and casual, which suits beach days and young children.

Good to know before you go

• For families: on Seafood Sensation nights there are extra activities for children, such as magic shows, balloon sculpting, mocktail making and cupcake decorating.
• Members: Shangri-La Circle members have had a perk letting young children eat the buffet with them for free. Check the current terms when you book.
• Payment: the hotel's restaurants are cashless, taking cards and several mobile wallets.
