Housed within the National Gallery Singapore, Odette is a timeless fine-dining destination helmed by the acclaimed French Chef Julien Royer. Opened in late 2015, Odette quickly caught the attention of the city’s discerning gourmands, ensuring the restaurant has been booked out every night since – a fact that’s not surprising when you learn that the restaurant is a star-studded collaboration between the illustrious chef and the unstoppable Lo & Behold Group.
It’s the first restaurant by Chef Julien, following his rise to fame after a four-year stint at the multi award-winning JAAN restaurant at Swissôtel The Stamford. Everything from the menu, to the décor and the tableware has been overseen by Chef Julien, injecting an unmistakeable air of devotion throughout.
This is further highlighted when the inspiration for Odette is revealed. Odette is the name of Chef Julien’s grandmother and everything that has ever been created in the kitchen has been made in her honour, remembering a time when Chef Julien grew up on the family farm and watched his mother and grandmother tend to their crops and live by the seasons.
Chef Julien therefore sees the world as his backyard, his menus are as changing as the seasons. The team works with some of the world’s best boutique producers to bring to the table beautifully refined modern French cuisine, guided by Julien’s lifelong respect for seasonality, terroir and artisanal produce. Using only the best produce together with Julien’s signature delicate and restrained touch, each dish is a sublime harmony of taste, texture and impeccable presentation. The menus at Odette are degustation only, ranging from six courses for lunch to seven courses at dinnertime. Opt for a dinner degustation and the sommelier will mark the beginning of degustation with a Champagne trolley.
