Atlantic review: Lunch at Tower Club. Get a S$100 off voucher with American Express

Atlantic Review

A year ago, I wrote my first Atlantic review.

One year later, the menu is slightly changed up (I supposed the menus do rotate the food items over time, ah well), but it’s just as enjoyable.

This, is my second review of Atlantic.

Near the Entrance of Tower Club Singapore

I wished my living room looked like that

And brought this baby along.

Life should be like this sometimes.

Tower Club

Atlantic is located within Tower Club Singapore. This members-only club is smack in the middle of the Central Business District, at Republic Plaza.

American Express Platinum Charge card and American Express Platinum Reserve card holders have complimentary access to Tower Club. While visitations require a pre-booking with the American Express Concierge service, I’ve never had a problem with the process – calling to request for reservations was always smooth and easy.

On a beautiful day

• Atlantic: Western / Continental, both set meals and a la carte available
• Ba Xian: Chinese Fine Dining, with an amazing Dim Sum menu on Saturdays
• Straits Bar: As the name suggets, it is a Bar – though Afternoon High Tea is available at midday

American Express S$100 Voucher

With the American Express Platinum Charge card or Platinum Reserve Card, card holders receive an S$100 Tower Club voucher annually (upon payment of the card’s annual fee). The voucher can be used for dining in at either one of these three places.

Tower Club Voucher worth SGD 100 – for dining in at Atlantic, Ba Xian, and Straits Bar

Yes, the annual fee for the Platinum Charge Card (SGD 1712) is no joke. However, Platinum Charge card holders, even if they hold multiple Amex cards – pay ONLY the annual fee of the Platinum Charge Card.

In other words, they DO NOT have to pay  annual fees for any other American Express Credit Card. As such, the annual fee for my Platinum Reserve Card (SGD 535) is waived, and in addition I get to enjoy the perks of both these cards.

Atlantic Menu

The most popular choices here are the set meals.

The menu does rotate every now and then. At the time of dining, this was the menu that was presented to us. 

Atlantic Review: Menu

While waiting, a lovely bread basket was brought out. This was quite ordinary, but the bread was warm and toasty.

Atlantic review: three-course meal

Between my friend and I, we decided to combine ONE  three-course set meal and a few a la carte items to share.

The set meal came with an appetizer, a main, and a dessert.

Sautéed Blue Mussels

Roasted U.S. Duck Supreme

Appetizing from every angle

Pictures don’t do it justice; it tastes better than it looks here

Raspberry Lychee Mousse

Á la carte menu

Though the friend and I shared the three-course menu, it wasn’t exactly sufficient and we topped up the meal with a few add-ons. 

Such as the Honey Lemon Fizz and Crispy Truffle Fries

(Very) Crispy Truffle Fries

Tiramisu

This was unique however – mix it up, and you get a beige-brown mix with the scent of coffee.

Overall thoughts

Generally, soggy Tiramisu aside, this Atlantic review is a positive one. Everything else was presented beautifully and prepared to high standards. 

It’s an impressive place to bring friends and family for sure, and the beautiful views make it even more welcoming.

Important surcharge notice about Tower Club: there is a 10% member surcharge slapped on the bill – and this is ON TOP of the usual 7% GST and 10% service charge typical of most restaurants.

Important Note: Tower Club is USUALLY an adults-only place. On Weekday lunches and dinners, my understanding is that only adults are allowed in. The Saturday Dim Sum brunch at Ba Xian is an EXCEPTION whereby kids are actually allowed come. Before bringing in any child of any age, do check with the staff if kids are allowed in for that day.
