Kopi Tiam
For the record, Kopi Tiam bears no relation to the chain of food courts also called Kopitiam. Instead, this is a sturdy institution where you can get authentic and tasty hawker food in a hotel setting. Try the fish head curry, Kopi Tiam laksa and Hainanese chicken rice. Book a table at Kopi Tiam with […]

Long Bar Steakhouse
A plantation restaurant, Long Bar Steakhouse makes a reasonable choice for quiet leisurely meals pre- or post-drinks. The interior is charmingly old-world and reminiscent of the days of Cavendish, Conrad and Kipling. Interestingly, the sides outshine the meat and seafood mains. Try the steakhouse mash, braised mushrooms, sizzling asparagus and Doris’ “Dilly Bread.” Craving a […]

Al Hamra
Al Hamra is the kind of authentic ethnic restaurant that makes you forget you’re in Singapore.

The menu changes seasonally but the riyash ghanam (lamb chops with barbeque sauce) […]
Da Paolo La Terrazza

Is your favorite Italian restaurant on our […]
Fosters Restaurant
Opened in 1960, this unique English-themed restaurant has been around forever. The steaks here enjoy a good rep, and their Fillet Fantastic is proof of that—classic prime middle cut served on fried onions and topped with juicy mushrooms. Their oxtail stew, carpetbag steak, and steak and mushroom pie are also worth trying.
