was quoted as saying. “As a diamond mining group, we recognize that Ce’ La Vi is a diamond in the sky. [We expect] the response will be beyond overwhelming, but it’s only two diners who will eventually have the privilege.”
The whole experience is supposed to last for 8 hours, and includes 10,000 fresh roses, an 18-course meal, vintage wines and the 2.08-carat blue diamond ring, of course. The retreat is supposed to start with a 45-minute helicopter ride over Singapore, then a chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce drive, followed by a luxury cruise, after which the couple will dine at the Ce’ La Vi rooftop restaurant of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel.
If your’re wondering what the menu of such an extravagant meal would entail, then here you are: “New Zealand Langoustine, Fresh Belon Oyster with champagne foam, Almas Caviar, Lamb Sweetbread, Air-Flown Alaska Wild Salmon, Slow Cooked Pigeon, and Apple-Wood Grilled Mishima Sirloin. Paired with the menu are 44- and 55-year-old vintage wines, 1988 Salon ‘S’ champagne, 2008 Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru , and a host of other world-class champagnes and bruts” reports Forbes.
