If you grew up alongside Woody and Buzz Lightyear, SKAI has something that will hit you right in the nostalgia. The restaurant on the 70th floor of Swissôtel The Stamford is bringing a Toy Story-inspired high tea called You've Got A Friend In Me from 1 September to 30 November 2026.
It's paired with a themed staycation package that makes the whole trip even more memorable.
This isn't SKAI's first character-inspired collaboration. Their previous Winnie the Pooh high tea was met with a warm response from guests, and this time around, the timing feels especially fitting with Toy Story 5 releasing this year, making it the perfect moment to bring Woody and friends to the table.
The menu was developed by Director of Culinary Nicholas Issel together with Executive Pastry Chef Yong Ming Choong. It's not just about slapping character names onto food, each dish is genuinely built to echo the character behind it, spanning Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Rex, Hamm, Lotso, and the Aliens.
The sweets alone are worth the trip. Space Ranger comes as a soft berry sponge channelling Buzz Lightyear, while Cowboy Chocolate leans into Caraïbe 66% chocolate with crunchy hazelnut feuilletine, a fitting tribute to the classic cowboy himself.
If Lotso's your favourite, there's Lots O' Berry, a comforting mix of pandan sponge, strawberry compote, and Chantilly cream.
For fans of the iconic trio of Aliens, The Claw's Choice offers a matcha choux filled with a distinctly tangy house-made orange marmalade.
There's also Golden Gallop which pairs Alfonso mango sorbet with blueberries and buttery crumble, a nod to Jessie and Bullseye. The sweet selection wraps up with warm raisin scones served with Devonshire cream and preserves, a classic that never gets old.
The savoury lineup carries the same level of thought. Potato Head Royale pairs smoked russet potato with Comté gougère, black truffle, and N25 caviar, while Pretzel Stretch brings together a Wagyu beef smokie, pretzel brioche, sauerkraut, and onion fondue, drawing inspiration from Slinky Dog.
Golden Orchard, inspired by Hamm, features smoked duck mousse, honey apple gel, and savoury duck crackling. For something lighter, Tropical Roar takes the form of a pandan mascarpone-filled pineapple bun channelling Rex.
Rounding things off is Garden Harvest, inspired by the Peas in a Pod, combining pea purée, savoury crackers, Parma ham, cucumber, and a light feta cream cheese.
As for drinks, you get to pick one of two specialty mocktails. Little Green Glow is inspired by the Aliens, a refreshing blend of mint, cucumber, citrus, and blue curaçao syrup. Or go for something warmer with Sheriff's Star Splash, combining jasmine tea cold brew with citrus, honey, and ginger ale as a tribute to Woody.
The high tea starts from SGD 78++ per adult and SGD 39++ for children aged six to 12. It's served daily from 12.15pm to 5.30pm, with the last seating at 3.30pm and a two-hour dining time limit.
The price already includes a choice of themed mocktail, TWG tea, or coffee. Reservations are required, so make sure to book ahead before heading over. Make sure to click this link to make reservations.
If you're after the full experience, Swissôtel The Stamford also offers a Toy Story-themed staycation package. Select rooms come with themed in-room touches and keepsakes, along with priority reservations for the high tea, breakfast for two adults and two children, and access to a Disney merchandise pop-up at the Level 2 Atrium.
William J. Haandrikman, Managing Director of Fairmont Singapore and Swissôtel The Stamford, described the concept as a natural continuation of the strong response to their previous Winnie the Pooh collaboration.
He noted that the SKAI team has crafted an experience that celebrates friendship and imagination, giving families a reason to gather while taking in the view from 70 floors above the city.
SKAI is located at 2 Stamford Road, Level 70, Swissôtel The Stamford, Singapore 178882. It's easily accessible as it sits right above City Hall MRT Station.
If you're planning a trip to Singapore anytime between September and November, this is worth carving out time for. Book your table early, since themed experiences like this tend to fill up fast, especially on weekends.
