Why Les Amis for the Anniversary
The anniversary at Les Amis, under Sebastien Lepinoy's direction, works because of institutional return rather than novelty. Multi-generational ASEAN regulars across three decades.
The cellar carries the weight of the wedding-year vintage. Asia's deepest cellar. 20,000 bottles, with significant verticals across Burgundy, Bordeaux, Champagne. Yes. The 20,000-bottle cellar supports almost every modern wedding year.
Since 1994, the team has been refining the kind of multi-decade hospitality that turns a venue into a couple's anniversary tradition. Cellar tour with sommelier; private dining room for landmark anniversaries; sommelier-curated vintage-year wine.
What makes the choice specifically suited to the anniversary. Rather than to the proposal or the celebration. Is the institutional formality. The room is calibrated for couples who have done this before, who know what they want, who return year after year because the staff remember them.

Our Review of Les Amis as an Anniversary Venue
"Singapore's defining fine-dining institution since 1994. Asia's deepest cellar, three Michelin stars, and 30 years of returning anniversary regulars."
