Singapore Airlines will be offering a range of new ‘wholesome’ gourmet dishes to its customers in its SilverKris lounges at Singapore Changi Airport and onboard selected flights departing from Singapore this month to cater to the needs of health-conscious travellers. Prepared by the airline’s chefs from its International Culinary Panel (ICP), selected main courses will be available for pre-ordering by customers in Suites, First Class and Business Class through Singapore Airlines’ “Book the Cook” service.
These gourmet dishes will be rich in nutrients, vitamins and essential minerals to help you restore and rejuvenate your body, especially on long-haul flights. They are prepared using ingredients such as whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats, fish, seeds, nuts, herbs and spices which are rich in macronutrients such as complex carbohydrates, lean protein, good fats, fibre and healing phytonutrients that nourish your body. The dishes will also contain special active micronutrients that help alleviate travel-induced stress such as dehydration, fatigue and jetlag.
Choose from Western dishes such as Citrus Steamed Sea Bass with Lettuce Puree by ICP Chef Carlo Cracco – a nourishing dish that is high in protein and rich with healthy polyunsaturated essential fatty acids like omega 3 and omega 6. Asian-style meals will also be offered including Sousvide Miso Simmered Beef Yamato-style with Nimono Vegetables by ICP Chef Yoshihiro Murata – a delicately flavourful Japanese dish that combines iron-rich beef with the therapeutic effects of ginger and garlic. A meal is not complete without desserts such as Tofu Cheesecake with Citrus Compote and Watermelon Gelee with Mango.
In Premium Economy and Economy, Quinoa served with Ratatouille and Chickpeas offer a gluten-free option that is rich in protein, antioxidants with the essential amino acids. There is also the Oriental-style Steamed fish in Wolfberry Sauce which is rich in omega 3, vitamin c, iron and fibre.
