There may be no riotous, countdown parties happening for the first time in a long while this New Year’s Eve, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t guaranteed a good time. Come Dec 31, feel free to savour good eats and the last few moments of 2020 at the following five restaurants in Singapore. Just remember to book your table early, as we foresee a packed Thursday night.
Adrift by David Myers
Following some seriously lavish holiday offerings, Adrift by David Myers is set to roll out yet another delicious spread with its one-night only New Year’s Eve menu ($188/pax) for all diners heading into the iconic MBS restaurant. Begin your dining experience with appetising snacks and the refreshing Kingfish Sashimi before digging into some warm Chawanmushi served with scallops, witlof and sesame. Then, savour Adrift’s signature wood-fired dishes, which include the Woodfire Grilled Octopus, and the juicy Wagyu Striploin with onion, shiitake, pickled mustard seed. Finally, round up your final meal of 2020 with a guilt-free, boozy dessert of Flourless Chocolate Cake with strawberries and gin. Guarantee you’ll be talking about this exclusive dinner affair well into 2021.
Lawry’s The Prime Rib Singapore
For a memorable six-course dinner (from $178/pax) with loved ones, head to Lawry’s and begin counting down the hours to the new year. Epicurean highlights await, and that includes seafood varieties such as the Octopus with White Truffle and Lobster Bisque with Hokkaido Scallop. Then try their newly-introduced Atlantic Lobster Tail with Ora King Salmon, classic Duck Leg Confit or stick to Lawry’s Signature Roasted USDA Prime Rib of Beef. To end off the feast on a sweet note, choose between the refreshing Lemon Drizzle Cake and Sticky Date Pudding; the latter will definitely delight those who are still in a festive mood.
Lime Restaurant
If you have yet to check out Parkroyal Collection Pickering, Singapore’s Lime Restaurant this festive season, then be sure to do so on New Year’s Eve as the hotel stalwart will be dishing out a hearty buffet spread for both lunch and dinner (from $69/pax) on Dec 31. Think Mushroom Soup with Truffle Oil, Roasted Chicken, Duck and Pork Platter with Hainanese Chicken Rice, and even the crowd favourite Durian Pengat. And remember to opt for the bottomless beverage upgrade as well, to toast to the new year while you indulge in those incredible eats.
Singapore Cable Car (One Faber Group)
An unconventional but definitely unforgettable way to end off 2020, enjoy a romantic Italian dinner for two ($328) aboard the Singapore Cable Car this New Year’s Eve. With a generous four-course set that will entice couples, simply savour the dishes inspired by the culinary traditions of different regions in Italy while taking in the panoramic views from all sides of the private cable car cabin. In fact, on Dec 31, look forward to riding in the Stardust Cabin or Celebration Cabin as they will be taking visitors 100m above sea level to catch a glimpse of the gorgeous night sky.
Summerlong
With Summerlong’s impending closure happening on Jan 10 2021, seize the opportunity to tuck into a Mediterranean spread ($110/pax) at the chill Robertson Quay venue on the evening of New Year’s Eve. There, be treated to a glass of sparkling rose, alongside mouth-watering dishes like the Beef Tartare, Truffle Risotto, Australian King Prawns with Corn and Ginger Creme and even Greek Yoghurt Cheesecake with blackberry jam and white chocolate. You’ll be bidding adieu to both Summerlong, and 2020.
