Summer sizzles a little more intensely as Marina Bay Sands announces the arrival of estiatorio Milos, a beacon of Greek culinary excellence established by the visionary chef, Costas Spiliadis.
Since opening in Montreal in 1979, Milos has cemented its status as a trailblazer in Greek gastronomy, captivating discerning palates globally. From Montreal to New York, Athens to Dubai, and now Singapore, the restaurant has garnered acclaim for its unwavering commitment to showcasing the essence of Greek cuisine with unparalleled finesse.
Central to Milos’ ethos is the cherished Greek principle of philoxenia – the art of welcoming strangers as honoured guests. This ethos permeates every aspect of Milos’ offerings, from its meticulously curated selection of seafood sourced from the warm waters of the Mediterranean to its dedication to simplicity, authenticity, and purity in every dish.
At the heart of the Milos culinary experience is an open seafood market display, where diners are invited to handpick their choice of fresh fish and seafood. This personalised ritual exemplifies Milos’ dedication to bespoke excellence, allowing guests to immerse and engage with the origins of their meal.
Helming the kitchen and leading the culinary team at Milos Singapore is Executive Chef Fotis Kokoshi, renowned for his expertise in Mediterranean cuisine honed at esteemed establishments, including a one-Michelin-starred restaurant in Athens. Under his guidance, guests at Milos Singapore can anticipate a sharing-centric menu that celebrates nourishing food in an elegant, contemporary ambiance.
The menu at Milos Singapore promises an array of refined Greek delicacies, including the Milos Special – a medley of crispy zucchini, eggplant, Kefalograviera cheese, and creamy Tzatziki. Diners can also savour whole fish baked in sea salt and indulgent lobster pasta Athenian-style, showcasing the richness and diversity of Greek flavours.
Complementing the gastronomic offerings is Milos’ extensive wine programme, featuring a curated selection of fine Greek wines from diverse regions across Greece. With a focus on indigenous grape varieties like Assyrtiko, Xinomavro, and Agiorgitiko, guests can embark on a flavourful journey through Greece’s rich winemaking heritage, from the volcanic terroir of Santorini to the mountainous slopes of the Peloponnese.
Embodying the design aesthetics of its global counterparts, Milos Singapore features an elegant interior reflective of Greek architecture, designed by Alain Carle Architecte. With elements of Greek marble and wood set against a backdrop of neutral hues, the restaurant exudes a serene ambiance evocative of the idyllic island homes in Greece.
In essence, estiatorio Milos at Marina Bay Sands is well positioned to redefine and add another layer of excitement to Singapore’s culinary landscape, offering an unparalleled Greek dining experience that seamlessly weaves together tradition and genuine hospitality.
