May 9, 2026 | Eda Wong | Last Updated September 10, 2026 I have spent the last six months navigating the tight corridors and bustling walkways of Fortune Centre, determined to map out its legendary food scene. I’ve tried all of these famous stalls, sampling everything from intricate plant-based creations to humble rice plates, and I…
May 19, 2026 | Eat Drink Asia Team | Last Updated September 7, 2026 When you sit at an omakase counter, you’re paying for a culinary journey. A memorable omakase is more than fresh fish; it’s a delicate celebration of flavors. The best chefs act as storytellers, sequencing each bite to build anticipation and contrast, guiding…
I built this list around a very specific feeling: that first bite where the room goes quiet for a second. I’ve tried enough Japanese restaurants in Singapore over the years to know that “best” does not always mean the most expensive, the rarest, or the hardest to book. Sometimes it is the warmth of the…
I didn’t set out to make a list. I made a habit. Over the years, cafes became the places I went to think, to wait out the rain, to sit with a coffee I didn’t have to rush. Some I returned to for the food. Others, I returned to for the feeling — the way…
I ordered from Tambuah Mas on a rainy Sunday at around 6:15pm, mostly because I wasn’t in the mood to dress up and head into town, but I still wanted a proper meal. Not a sad one-bowl lunch. A real spread. That’s the thing about Tambuah Mas. It’s been around since 1981, serving Indonesian home-style…

That is exactly what led me to The Malayan Council at 71 Bussorah Street. I visited on a Friday around 7:30 pm, just as the weekend…
Over the past six months, I’ve navigated the sprawling, sometimes disorientating corridors of Suntec City more times than I can count. What started as a simple quest to find decent spots for post-meeting lunches quickly turned into a genuine culinary journey. I have tried over a dozen venues within this massive complex, and I’ve found…
When I first tried to navigate a traditional Cantonese family dinner, I made a spectacularly embarrassing mistake. I sat down, looked at the sprawling, beautifully written menu, and confidently ordered an individual plate of sweet and sour pork just for myself. The table went completely quiet. My host gently nudged the menu back towards the…
Experiencing Japanese food in Japan is fundamentally different from eating Japanese cuisine anywhere else. While sushi restaurants and ramen shops have spread globally, the authentic flavors, techniques, and cultural context of Japanese food can only be fully appreciated in its homeland. From meticulously selecting ingredients at peak freshness to centuries-old traditions shaping every meal, eating…
If you live in Singapore, you know that finding Thai food is about as difficult as finding a humid day. We are spoiled for choice. From gritty hawker stalls serving fiery basil pork to upscale restaurants where a bowl of tom yum costs more than a taxi ride, the options are endless. But sometimes, you…
