Behind the imposing, Brutalist concrete that defines Zurich’s Oerlikon district lies a surprising secret. While its exterior honours the neighbourhood’s industrial roots, stepping inside Mama Shelter reveals a vibrant, neon-soaked world that is a far cry from its rigid shell
Pan Pacific Orchard has added Amelia Matheson and Pedro Samper to its leadership ranks, ahead of its opening on June 1, 2023.
As director of F&B, Australian-born Matheson will lead commercial strategy for the restaurants. Matheson moved from Melbourne to Singapore in 2014 and she spent most of her career with independent F&B establishments. Prior to moving to Pan Pacific, her last role was with The Garcha Group where she managed a cluster of four boutique hotels.
Meanwhile, the hotel’s culinary programme will be spearheaded by Samper, who has honed his skills over two decades in Michelin-star kitchens across cities like Hong Kong, Japan, and Spain. The San Sebastian native was most recently Executive Chef at Four Seasons Resort Dubai in Jumeirah Beach. This is his first stint in Singapore.
