Prima Tower Revolving Restaurant Review

Prima Tower Revolving Restaurant

Last weekend we had dinner at the iconic Prima Tower Revolving Restaurant. Established in 1977, the restaurant is on top of a grain silo. This long-established restaurant is considered a landmark along Keppel Road. The unique part about it was that it is one of Singapore 2 revolving restaurants ( the other one is Tong Le at Collar Quay)

When we reached the spot, the boys were a little perplexed. The carpark was filled with containers, and the construction work outside the main compound is different from a dining destination. However, when shown the building, they were curious how a tall building without windows ( grain silo) could house a restaurant.


The restaurant
Getting up to the restaurant is as enjoyable as its facade. You take a lift up, followed by an escalator and reach the summit up a flight of curved steps. The journey up may be challenging for the elderly or disabled, so take note.
Sunset
The boys were surprised by the sight that greeted them. Clad with full-length windows, the restaurant looks bright and inviting. The views were equally delightful. They were amazed by the ever-changing landscape that greeted them at every turn of the restaurant.


The View
The best views would be the ones facing the container terminals and Sentosa. For those afraid of getting dizzy from all turning, the tip is not to look at the floor while dining.

Different Menu

There were at least 4 different menus presenting a la carte and set dishes. With so many choices, it may be daunting when it comes to ordering.

Menu 7
We decided on the set menu for 8. Priced at a reasonable $338++, this 8-course meal is a good sampler for Prima's well-known dishes.

Peanuts and Veggies
The dishes we had included the following :
Deep Fried 4 Treasures and Fish Maw & Seafood in Thick Soup
Deep Fried 4 Treasures: Mixture of fried vegetables and mushroom. The boys actually enjoyed the deep-fried vegetables!

Fish Maw & Seafood in Thick Soup: Good Alternative to Shark Fins Soup

Peking Duck
Authentic Barbeque Peking Duck: This is one of the signature dishes. It will be served in 2 parts, one with the skin only and the other just the meat. You can choose to have the heart by itself or cook it with rice or noodles (Additional costs)
Yummy Food
The rest of the dishes were well prepared and fresh. In terms of value, this is definitely much better in terms of quality compared to our last Chinese Restaurant outing at Wah Lok.
Steamed Seabass with Blended Fish Sauce
Sweet and Sour Prawn Balls on Hotplate
Braised Vegetables with Mushrooms and Dried Scallops
Deep Fried Bean Curb with Prawn Roe
Souffle ball with mashed bean stuffing

Souffle ball with mashed bean stuffing: Last but not least, the signature dessert. Best eaten with a dash of sugar.

The restaurant may be old, but the excellent food and the interesting revolving concept do keep the children occupied and contented. T
Last but not least,
Happy birthday, Grandma!
