Burger & Lobster Singapore will open its first outlet, at Jewel Changi tomorrow.

The 81-seat Jewel Changi store is the 16th Burger & Lobster’s outlet internationally. Others are in locations including New York, Bangkok, Dubai, Genting Highlands in Malaysia, London and Kuwait City.

“Singapore is an extremely important market as we see Singaporeans in our outlets particularly in London, Bangkok and Malaysia,” said Riccardo LaMonica, Burger &Lobster’s regional head of operations.

“There is no immediate plan for another Burger & Lobster Singapore outlet,” he said. “We will have to see how people respond.”

The new eatery’s menu offers Original Lobster with live lobsters from Nova Scotia, Canada, and Original Roll with tender lobster meat rolls.

There will be a Singapore twist – items available exclusively at Jewel Changi – such as the Sambal Glazed Lobster, and Chocolate Jewels, a dessert of dark chocolate spheres topped with housemade caramel sauce.

A bar operates from 9am until midnight daily, offering a selection of cocktails, beer and wine.
