"SG50 + 50" at The Line, Shangri-La Singapore
The Line at the luxurious Shangri-La Singapore has been a favourite amongst the locals for as long as I can remember.

This special menu will complement the international dinner buffet across the 16 different show kitchens (as well as an al fresco durian pop up stand between 1-16 August 2015).

New Top-tier Membership Level on IHG Rewards Club - Spire Elite
I have gotten pretty decent benefits by being an IHG Platinum Member last year but I was not able to justify driving so many eligible room nights to the program (especially since I do not generally travel for business). While the Platinum Status was the highest membership tier you could achieve then, IHG has introduced a brand new Spire Elite tier (above Platinum) to reward its most loyal members. That being said, it is important to recognise that the IHG manages the IHG Rewards Club and Ambassador memberships separately.
