Dining - Sara Shantelle Lim goes to NOX
Dining in the Dark
269 Beach Rd, Singapore 199546
I love it when, my husband gives me a surprise. Once in a while, he will plan a random date and bring me around Singapore to try the different places and dishes for dinner. This time round, he drove me somewhere near Arab Street, and I immediately saw NOX signboard by the road side, and guessed that this was the place he was going to take me to. I was RIGHT! I haven't been here before, although I've heard about it from friends before.
Who knew that dining in complete darkness could be fun?
The moment we walked into level 1, main entrance, you will see modern chairs and furnishings, mostly in black inside. It has a warm light setting and it is easy to the eyes. They also have a gorgeous bar set up at the end of the room, perfect for chilling and waiting for the waiter to bring us to our dining table up stairs.
Well, once you walk into the place with your reservations, their friendly waiter will explain to you, how you are suppose to eat in the dark, before they bring you to their official NOX dining area, whereby you literally eat in COMPLETE DARKNESS. You cannot even see your hands in front of you. But before you do that, you MUST remove all digital items from your body, like your mobile phones, your digital watch which has light, etc. NO LIGHT is allowed in their dark dining room. They have some lockers situated at the level 1 wait area, whereby you can lock up your belongings.
Next they will explain to you, how you should be eating your food. Basically, there are 12 dishes that you would try, 4 sets of appetizers, 4 sets of mains, and 4 sets of desserts. All 4 appetizers would be served at the same time, placed in a DIAMOND shaped tray. You are to feel your food, and eat them from a clockwise direction from the bottom dish first. The fun part of this whole experience is that you and your partner can actually try to guess what you are eating. At the end of the whole dining experience, when you are brought back down to their waiting area, the waiter would show you photos from their IPAD on what you are eaten upstairs in their dark room.
WINE & DINE AWARDS
It was a really fun and one of a kind experience for me. The good thing about this place is that they have opened up a restaurant whereby, the disabled people who cannot see are able to work there. Apparently, every single wait staff at the upstairs DARK room are people who can't see. They really used their sense of hearing abilities to bring you and guide you to your seats. They are really good at what they do, and their service upstairs was excellent too. 2 thumbs up for this place!
Highly recommended to friends and tourist who wants to try something different and exciting for your dining experience. This place has also won a lot of awards! Check it out~
