Is there a restaurant arrogant enough to call 1 week before Valentine’s day and ask for a credit card number in advance to “hold”

Except it isn't called Turquoise Room any more...but still great place, think it is called Verve now.
Edit: as for that other place...overpriced, and totally wanky (can I say that here because there simply isn't another word for it) and not worth it I say. Many other places much better.

Verve is owned by a single local woman and an married expat man who were former business colleagues. There was an article about them today in one of the Sunday papers.

Colony - The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore. Never fails. It provides a buffet experience with a focus on Singaporean and Asian cuisine.
