Restaurant recs?
 

Restaurant recs for 72 hour stay? All price ranges and street food too. Michelin star recs too.

Thanks!

bummer to see no answer on this thread. I’m taking my first ever trip to SG for work next month and would like to treat myself to a couple of high end meals. Did you discover anything on your trip that you could share?

Michelin Fine Dining:
Les Amis
Odette
Summer Pavillion
Restaurant Euphoria (Formerly was executive chef at Corner House)

Regular Restaurant:
Orchid Live Seafood
The Feather Blade
Tipo Pasta Bar
Chin Huat Live Seafood
Holycrab


Hawker Style:
Beach Road Prawn Noodle House
Roast Paradise
Mr. Lorbak
Hai Kee Teochew Cha Kuay Teow
The Original Katong Laksa
Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice

Stay away.

That turned into a tourist trap after the owner sold it, has (had) 45-120 min wait and the food is awful. Which tourists obviously don't know because they don't know how it supposed to taste.

Oh dang. What do you recommend then? I'm heading back to Singapore next month and was going to take my family there......

Do you specifically need chicken rice? If so, ask local Singaporean contacts which hawker center they would recommend. In general, Zion Road and Old Airport Road are good.

P.S. One generic recommendation - avoid going to places mentioned in guidebooks and/or are well-publicized over the Internet.

yea lol one thing to cross of their list :rolleyes:

more of a snack really since there are so many other foods at the hawker centers to eat at.

Try the Chicken rice here. I liked it a lot but that was back in 2019. Have not been back since COVID...However will visit them in November!

Thanks. if I happen to stop by I'll be sure to report back here late October.

any good or bad experiences with the michelin starred omakase options? I was considering doing a Friday night dinner at either Kimura or Shoukouwa... I love great quality Japanese food and my wife doesn't so this business trip is a great way to have a good omakase experience on a favorable exchange rate where I can expense 25% of it or so :)

Just completed my week stay in Singapore. Odette gave me a pamphlet of their recommended restaurants. Can confirm Boon Tong Kee on Balestier Road is good, as well as Mee Rebus.

Shoukouwa was highly recommended, but I ended up dining at Shinji @ St. Regis since I was staying at the hotel. I thought Shinji was very good, though their shari was a bit weak compared to other high-end sushi places. They lost their star this year though...

I think it's overrated...

Interesting, I also "just" returned from a week stay in SG at around the same time. I didn't have access to the list you posted, but still ended up visiting Ya Hua BKT and Sungei Road Laksa.

Can definitely recommend both! Couple of notes: the laksa is very affordable price-wise but the portions are small so I still had plenty of room for more even after ordering the "large", also it has a healthy helping of cockles so beware anyone who doesn't like the fishy/salty taste. We had the BKT as a late night meal and it was absolutely divine; very hearty and fragrant and the shop was emptying at the time so the staff were very proactive in refilling the soup. Definitely get the fried dough (youtiao) if you aren't averse to oily foods, it's a match made in heaven.

We also visited Hua Ting, which was probably the best dim sum experience I have ever had. Their take on the classic pork bun was amazing, but it was actually their pan-fried halibut that stole the show. The server tried to sell us on their peking duck, which is actually one of their specialties, but since we were only two people dining we declined as it would likely have been too much in addition to all the other dishes we wanted to try.

Any recommendations for HK style dim sum restaurants? TIA.
