AROSSA Singapore - Grill & Wine Bar

AROSSA - A wine and grill hotspot located in the heart of Orchard Road, setting itself in a classy and warm ambience that stands out from the rest of the restaurants at Scotts Square. 

Helmed by Japanese Chef Chiaki Watanabe. 

You don't see many females in the F&B industry, especially in the kitchen and I am not talking about pastry kitchen in context. I only got a chance to exchange a few words with Chef Chiaki, as she is always busy at the kitchen and making sure everyone in her team run the operations smoothly and efficiently.
