“I am excited to be joining a team such as the one here at Shangri-La Singapore, whose focus is dedicated to elevating the dining experiences through innovative methods and authentic delivery of new ideas to diners and guests’ alike,” said Nicholas. “I look forward to bringing a fresh perspective to the culinary offerings at this stunning property.”
