Singapore's coffee-fuelled car |
Royal Plaza on Scotts Singapore celebrated Singapore’s eighth night motor racing season with the display of a life-sized coffee capsules race car, the first to be created in the world. The culinary team has created other life-sized race cars with seashells, pasta, chocolate, bread and macarons in previous years. Tying in with the hotel’s green initiatives, this year’s life-sized race car features recycled coffee capsules, collected from the hotel’s 511 guestrooms and 11 meeting rooms which provide guests with complimentary gourmet coffee from Nespresso machines. The enthralling masterpiece plays up the vibrant colour palettes, using coffee capsules of nine different Grand Cru varieties. Keeping to the theme of Kopi GP, recycled coffee grounds are used on the wheels to create a contrast in textures on the car and give guests a whiff of the delightful aroma of coffee. Measuring 4.4 metres long, 1.9 metres wide and 1.3 metres tall, the structure took a dedicated team of eight chefs and culinary staff 1108 hours to complete. The team was led by RP’s talented Executive Chef, Darren Ong. |
