Burnt Ends
One of the toughest restaurants to snag a reservation in Singapore, Burnt Ends is no stranger to accolades considering its commendable spot on the Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants and Michelin Guide Singapore.

Pasta Bar
Located right beside Olivia is Pasta Bar, an Italian restaurant which serves more than ten types of homemade pasta. The main highlight at Pasta Bar is the bar area, where diners get to sit around the bar and watch the chefs at work in the open kitchen. The Tortelli shaped like wanton and filled with pumpkin over sage sauce is the must try dish here. [Read more here…]

Olivia Restaurant & Lounge is a relatively new Barcelona restaurant housed within the gorgeous space of KeSa House.

The gorgeous space is another reason to head back for me. [Read more here…]

Bar Cicheti
There is this indie charm about Bar Cicheti which draws me to it the moment I stepped into the restaurant. With a concise one page food menu of Antipasti and Pasta, the selections are diverse from snacks such as the addictive Zucchine Fritti, Salvia Fritta to the homemade pastas like the Fusilli Nero, a squid ink pasta tossed with Japanese sea urchin, basil and anchovy crumb. Great dining ambience for a good evening of catch up with friends. [Read more here…]

Wine & Chef
Opened by the team behind the online wine shop, SG Wine Cellar, the team is serious about their wines. The concept of Wine & Chef is a combination of a retail wine space along with the specially curated food menu at wallet-friendly prices. Most of the dishes on the food menu are Mod-Sin inspired as the owner feels that many of their wines works really well with Asian dishes. Expect dishes like Crab Meat “Hokkien Mee” and Curry Pork Knuckle. [Read more here…]

The Guild 
The Guild is a collaboration between Chef Vincent “Vinny” Lauria and Young Master Brewery, Hong Kong’s highest rated and largest independent craft brewery. Food wise, there is no particular cuisine to define the dishes at The Guild, which takes its inspirations from different places, though the restaurant strives to use locally sourced ingredients where possible. Spot locally sourced oysters, pomfret and BCM Tagliatelle “Bolo” inspired by our local Bak Chor Mee on the menu. [Read more here…]
