Hong Kong contemporary Chinese restaurant chain Social Place has launched its first outlet in Singapore at Forum The Shopping Mall.

The brand’s first outlet in Southeast Asia is a joint venture among three F&B businesses from Hong Kong, Singapore and Indonesia – Tang Palace, Palm Beach Seafood and Gaia Culinary Concepts.

The restaurant’s chefs put a modern spin on traditional dishes, presenting a selection of Chinese favorites and imaginative creations.

“Social Place is unique in its ability to offer diners refreshing encounters with Chinese cuisine while preserving its all-important heritage and history,” said Gaia Culinary Concepts representative Cindy Karim. “We are excited to bring a taste of modern Hong Kong, and the creative energy of its kitchens to our customers in Singapore.”

Social Place presents a contemporary interior with hints of old Hong Kong. The setting is characterized by marble-topped tables, elegant gold, and blue-grey features, as well as vintage patterned flooring – elements that embody the restaurant’s fusion of tradition and modernity.

The Singapore outlet is also the first to boast a glossy feature wall made out of mahjong tiles.
