6 spots to hit up at Chip Bee Gardens*

[SPONSORED] Sister to the more well-known Holland Village, the lush, quiet Chip Bee Gardens is a charming little gourmet and lifestyle enclave with plenty to see, do and eat. Here are six of our favorite Chip Bee hangouts.

Original Sin

One of Chip Bee Gardens’ original stalwarts, Original Sin has been around for nearly 18 years. This lovely Mediterranean restaurant delivers beautifully-executed classics like their Mezze Platter, the garden-fresh but hearty Lasagna Rossa and the vodka-spiked ABSOLUT pasta. And their alfresco terrace is the perfect place to spend a lazy evening, sipping on wine and watching the world go by.

The Monocle Shop and Cafe

The cult design and current affairs magazine recently opened a store in Singapore, a tiny space that’s sparse but tastefully curated. It stocks minimalist items like handcrafted leather desk mats and gold-plated paperweights.

Chez Petit Salut

French favorites like escargots are the order of the day at this charming bistro, and their delightfully light and delicious profiteroles are a must-have for dessert.

Baker & Cook

If you need a little pick-me-up after all that feasting, this bakery and café does great Allpress Espresso and serves house-made cake and pastries to boot.

Taksu Gallery

Art buffs will want to visit this local gallery, which showcases work by budding talents and critically acclaimed artists, with a focus on art from Singapore and around the region.

Sunday Folks

End your day on a sweet note at this soft-serve ice cream specialist, which has flavors like earl grey lavender, Madagascar vanilla and roasted pistachio. You can also ask to have the ice cream served on fresh waffles with toppings like caramel marshmallows.
