Smoochies Bistro & Bar | Review

Unwind amid lush greenery at this cozy joint. Its fresh sandwiches as well as tapas are worth checking out. Local band Acoustic Trip sets the mood for you every Thursday to Saturday.

B. at The Bellini Grande

 The latest baby of the St. James group is located where Crazy Horse used to be. Yet, it’s the restaurant upstairs that’s truly a hidden gem. Take the lift or climb a flight of stairs to reach it. With a dimly‑lit, intimate interior boasting glitzy mirrors, a shiny piano, lush velvety furnishings and soft chairs, […]

FiftyThree

No wonder you can’t get a table at this new Les Amis Group restaurant—there are only seven of them in this chic shophouse restaurant. And this minimalist approach extends to the menu too. Limited to a three‑course set lunch and a eight‑course set dinner, the menu more or less makes your decision of what to […]

Laurent Bernard Chocolatier

French chocolatier Laurent Bernard and his wife Iveta opened Laurent’s Café and Chocolate Bar (formerly The Chocolate Factory) a couple of years ago.

Don Quijote Spanish Restaurant

Never mind that it is a bit inaccessible, Spanish restaurant Don Quijote located just off the Upper Bukit Timah Road is one of the best new restaurants that we’ve visited lately. We’ve tried our fair share of tapas places, but Don Quijote is heads and shoulders above the rest. Its proprietors decided to open at […]

Seoul Yummy

The menu features combo meals with items such as kimchi ramen with sides like fired pork dumplings and spicy fried wings, while the a la carte options include hotstone bibimbab.

Boomarang Bistro & Bar | Review

Reflecting the chilled-out charm of its riverside location, Boomarang is dining in casual Aussie style. Done up in a chic, modern design with hints of Down Under (the tables are custom made from raw recycled wood from Australian trees); you can lounge either indoors or on one of the alfresco daybeds while digging into some […]

Whisk Cafe Lounge

Newly opened in Wisma Atria, Whisk is the first thing you see when you enter the mall from the taxi stand, making it extremely accessible. Decorated like the interior of someone’s country house, with wooden flooring, a whitewashed feel and earth tones, along with magazine racks, a bar counter, plus cute fixtures like real cupboards […]

Shokudo Streets Of Japan

You’ll be boggled by the sheer amount of great Japanese chow, drinks and desserts at this extension of the Shokudo enterprise (we’re talking over 400 items)—all prepared a la minute. Think ramen, yakitori, Japanese omelets, desserts, pizzas, sushi, sashimi, chawanmushi, rosti, robatayaki and oodles more. Try awesome dishes like the aburi sushi, quail egg roll […]

Skinny Pizza

Spa Esprit Group’s Skinny Pizza offers the one‑of‑a‑kind Skinny Pizza. The pizza is a far cry from the doughy or thin‑crusted pizzas you often get. Instead, it’s light as air, and super crispy and crackly. It comes with fun, fresh and tasty toppings (vegetarian flavors included). Best thing: You can eat a few slices before […]
