Paying homage to the historic botanist, E J H Corner, the Assistant Director of Singapore Botanic Gardens from 1929 to 1945, Corner House offers a unique multi-layered dining experience, where the life and work of E J H Corner is the animating force, inspiring and shaping every aspect of the restaurant's concept. The result is a unique melding of gastronomy and memory: a luminous moment to be cherished and remembered in a very special building.

The cuisine created by Chef Jason Tan, Gastro-Botanica, combines the soulful passions that Corner had for nature, especially plants, with the progressive techniques of a refined modern kitchen. From Chef's passion and creativity, birthed a contemporary cuisine that emphasizes on refinement and quality, giving equivalent weight on the plate to protein and botanical elements where plants are given fuller elaborations in preparation, and garnishing becomes a highlight in its own right.

Enchanting on many fronts, Corner celebrates a unique and colorful human being, it evokes the romance of a special historic location, it thrills with superb gastronomy and marks a return to grace and hospitality that will be cherished and remembered. Time spent at Corner House becomes part of one's history. (Jul 2014)
