Gemmills @ 110 Amoy Street

Head to 110 Amoy Street and you might be surprised that you can't locate Gemmills. Do not fret though, simply make your way around to the back of the row of shophouses and you'll find Gemmills sitting pretty.

Lai Huat Signatures @ Far East Square

Lai Huat Signatures is a casual dining tze char restaurant in the heart of the central business district. It proves to be a great place for after-work gatherings and regulars can now get a taste of their favourite Sambal Fish at a more centralised location, instead of having to go all the way to East Coast!

Hokkaido Izakaya - Lovely Japanese Dishes!

New to the scene and here to stay, Hokkaido Izakaya is a solid outfit that stands tall and proud along Tanjong Pagar Road. With almost all of their ingredients and produce imported from just four different towns in Hokkaido, diners can definitely find a taste of Hokkaido right here. The Milk Hotpot with Salmon ($18) is not to be missed. Made using fresh milk from Hokkaido, the broth is amazingly rich with a slightly viscous texture and every mouthful packs an explosion of flavours. I've never really been huge on soupy stuff or hotpots to be frank, but this changes everything. I was legit sad when they took it away even though I had already finished all the soup. It's sad to see good things go you know?

Fu Lin Men Dou Lao @ North Canal Road

Fu Lin Men Dou Lao has been opened since April 2015 but they haven't done much publicity till now because the star behind the dishes and cuisine here has only managed to come to Singapore recently.  Master Chef Nian who is the two-time winner of the grand Manchu and Han Royal Imperial Court Feast (known as “Man Han Quan Xi”) culinary quest by China Central Television is the brilliant mind behind much of the conceptualisation of the menu. 

Dosirak @ China Square Central

A pair of Korean brothers are behind Dosirak, which is located inside China Square Central in the CBD. Dosirak boasts fresh and affordable boxes of healthy Korean fare. More of a grab-and-go concept to cater to the working crowd, patrons are in the know of what they're consuming with a detailed chart of the number of calories inside every box.

The Daily Round Up @ Keong Saik Road

A project by the Lo & Behold Group, The Daily Round Up is located at The Working Capitol, a popular co-working space. It focuses on French galettes and crepes, using organic buckwheat flour from Brittany, France and Jean-Yves Bordier butter.

The Black Swan - Luxurious and Elegant European Fare

Housed in the iconic and historic Art Deco building, The Black Swan stands tall and beautiful exuding a timeless elegance in the heart of Raffles Place. The Black Swan brings to the table a new menu lined with European dishes prepared with traditional methods elevated by light modern touches.

Sugarhall @ Amoy Street

Sausages have never tasted this good. First and foremost, it's an astounding feat to be churning out your own sausages in house and secondly, it's definitely not an easy feat making them this delish. The House-made Sausages ($32) at Sugarhall really left an impression. Taste wise, texture wise and looks wise, these sausages aced them all.

Park Bench Deli @ 179 Telok Ayer Road

Is this sight reminiscient of a popular Vietnamese dish? The boys at Park Bench Deli have been dazzling huge crowds at pop-ups and they finally have a physical space to call their own. Opened by a team of three who come from pretty impressive backgrounds, the sandwiches rolled out at this cool joint are not just a sight, but a taste to behold too

Refreshing The Classics @ PAUL

Where else but a French establishment to celebrate Bastille Day at! Had the good fortune of soaking up the celebratory atmosphere at PAUL at Marina Bay Link Mall with a couple of their newly launched dishes

Brunch @ FYR Cycene Ond Drinc (Boon Tat Street)

Back at FYR for their new brunch menu which is significantly different from the brunch that we are used to. We often go for big breakfast platters, eggs Benedict or French toasts these days but the menu at FYR is a Modern European take and it actually left quite a deep impression.

My Little Tapas Bar & The Entertainer App

By the same folks behind My Little Spanish Place, My Little Tapas Bar is a popular haunt on Club Street that dishes out authentic Spanish tapas, complete with a wide range of wines. Here, you can get freshly carved jamon (ham) too! Not just any ham but the best cured hams in Spain! If you've always wanted to try My Little Tapas Bar but haven't gotten down to it, The Entertainer app is giving you added motivation to pop by MLYB! Grab two tapas and enjoy two more on the house!

Mrs Lee's Favourites @ TAO Seafood Asia

Media Invite


Why Mrs Lee's Favourites, you might think. All the dishes in this Mother's Day menu are refined versions of homecooked dishes that Chef Lee Tong Kuon cooks on a regular basis for his lovely wife. Aptly named, with a very sweet story behind it, the Mother's Day menu at TAO did not disappoint and left us belly full and very happy

Fiji Water Dessert Platter @ The Exchange

Media Invite


Wednesdays at The Exchange have always been a madhouse. Packed to the brim with executives and partygoers, Ladies Night here is a weekly affair not to be missed! Now that Ladies Night has been revamped with the addition of more alcoholic beverages for ladies, there's seriously no reason for you not to come by! But the highlight of it all, is most definitely the launch of the Fiji Water Dessert Platter!

MEDZS Bistro & Bar

Right smack in the middle of the CBD, in Clifford Centre, is MEDZS, a name familiar to most.

Yaowarat Chinese New Year @ TAO Seafood Asia

Media Invite


TAO Seafood is one of my favourite restaurants in Singapore and I'm so glad to be back here for their Chinese New Year feast! Yaowarat Road, in Thailand, is a bustling food heaven and Chef Lee and his team have brought five lunar new year classics from Yaowarat (with a TAO twist of course) to diners this year!

TAO Seafood Asia

Chef Lee Tong Kuon, the former executive chef and co-owner of Thai Village, is the driving force behind the highly rated TAO Seafood Asia at Asia Square. I've dined at Thai Village numerous times with my family and I honestly can't wait to bring them here! I was immensely impressed and I'm so certain that my family is going to love the food here too
