Racines, the beloved restaurant at Sofitel Singapore City Centre, has unveiled an exciting new chapter with its refreshed menu concept — Home: Flavours from the Heart. This revamped Straits heritage dining experience celebrates dishes shaped by family kitchens across the region, thoughtfully refined by the restaurant’s talented culinary team.
A Refreshed Straits Heritage Concept
Building on Racines’ well-loved Asian repertoire, the curated menu retains familiar favourites such as beef hor fun, Hokkien mee and chicken rice, while expanding the selection to over 20 Asian and Straits-inspired dishes. These additions draw from the chefs’ personal stories and family recipes, offering a more intimate and expressive take on the cuisine.
Signature Dishes to Try
The new menu introduces several standout creations that showcase the kitchen’s creative approach to heritage flavours.
Racines Nasi Goreng
Bold, smoky, satiating and full of character — this is Nasi Goreng seen through a slightly more indulgent lens. Wok-fried the way it should be, the dish is crowned with juicy, 24-hour marinated Ayam Panggang and finished with all the thoughtful extras that make it truly special.
Nyonya Assam Curry Snapper
Not your everyday Assam Pedas fish, this dish features crisp rice paper “scales” layered over fresh snapper for added texture, then soaked in a bold, tangy Assam curry. It’s the kind of gravy that begs for steamed rice and rewards with a deeply satisfying spoonful.
Cempedak Crème Brûlée 2.0
A beloved Racines favourite gets a well-deserved upgrade. In this new version, creamy cempedak gets a proper brûlée crack, then takes an unexpected turn with warming spices before landing alongside coconut gelato. A dessert that shouldn’t work — but absolutely does.
