Get to Know: Bespoke Dining Club

Nestled within Singapore’s vibrant culinary scene, Bespoke Dining Club (BDC) offers a unique and personalised approach to food and event services. Founded by Samuel Quan, an experienced chef who’s worked at Singapore’s prestigious Les Amis and in a Michelin-starred kitchen in Spain, BDC began as an exclusive yacht catering service.

Samuel expanded BDC’s offerings with Sol by BDC, a convenience store on Lazarus Island designed to serve yacht crews and island visitors with quality food supplies. Today, BDC focuses on providing high-quality food and beverage experiences at sea, setting a new standard for bespoke dining in Singapore and tailoring their services to create memorable moments on the water.

Dining on the Waves: Catering for Yacht Events

BDC specialises in catering for yachts, bringing exceptional dining to Singapore’s southern waters. This experience is crafted with care to suit the unique demands of the yachting environment. Catering services range from simple canapés and buffets to premium BBQ setups and plated dinners with chefs onboard. For yacht events, BDC pre-prepares and partially cooks items like BBQ meats in their central kitchen, so crews can quickly sear or grill the food without compromising quality, ensuring guests enjoy perfectly cooked dishes without long waits.

One standout aspect of BDC’s yacht offerings is the flexibility in service. The team can provide “drop-and-go” canapés—delicious bites that crew members can easily plate and serve—as well as chef-attended service where canapés are freshly prepared and plated onboard, delivering an added touch of elegance. For yacht clients looking for an added layer of luxury, BDC can also supply bartenders for cocktail and mocktail service, making any voyage an extraordinary experience.

Crafting Memorable Events: Beyond the Yachting Experience

BDC’s commitment to quality goes beyond just food; they offer full event support. From corporate events to intimate gatherings, BDC supplies skilled chefs, bartenders, and service staff to create a seamless experience. During F1 season, BDC even partners with yachts docked at Marina Bay, offering premier catering and culinary services for the ultimate waterfront events.

With a focus on customisation, BDC adapts its menus based on client budgets and preferences. They offer Asian-European fusion dishes, an approach that brings together fresh flavours and global techniques. One popular option is their Angel Hair Pasta with yuzu kombu—a refreshing, tangy dish that leaves a lasting impression. And for those looking to elevate their BBQ experience, BDC offers house-aged meats, adding sophistication to any gathering.

Convenience and Comfort on Lazarus Island

In addition to catering services, BDC has expanded to Lazarus Island, where they operate a convenience store catering to yacht crews and visitors. Positioned for easy access, the store supplies food, beverages, and essential items for those staying on the island or docking nearby. BDC also provides supplies to local accommodations like Tiny Away and Into the Woods, ensuring a comfortable experience for guests venturing into Singapore’s pristine southern isles.

A Tailored Experience: How to Book Bespoke Dining Club

BDC’s service is known for its flexibility and attention to detail. Clients are encouraged to book at least two weeks in advance, though BDC may accommodate last-minute request depending on availability. They work within diverse budgets, from simple to premium packages that include delicacies like crab, caviar, and oysters. Whether it’s a small gathering or a large-scale event, BDC’s range ensures every client finds something to suit their needs.

In a bid to encourage more people to explore Lazarus Island, BDC has become a strong advocate for the southern islands. the team hopes more locals and visitors alike will discover the hidden gem of Lazarus, stepping off their yachts to experience this natural oasis just a short ride from the city.
