Spicy Crayfish @ Xie Lao Song (蟹�... $40.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

16 Smith Street, Singapore 058930

Call me old fashioned, but I'm quite averse to having Chinese food in the stereotypical 'Chinatown' spots surrounded by tourists. However, despite being located on Smith Street, Xie Lao Song is ridiculously authentic - most of the clientele and staff are very Chinese (and...

Prime Rib @ Black Angus $70.00

(1 vote)

for a 16oz set meal

1 Tanglin Road, #01-08 Orchard Parade Hotel, Singapore 247905

While not super fancy nor super cheap, Black Angus is one of the default options when I need my steak fix - particularly for their prime rib. The ambience and service isn't the greatest, but the food more than makes up for it. My favorite starters are the Wild Wild West O...

Burger & Fries @ Omakase Burger $20.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

#01-02 Wisma Atria, 435 Orchard Road, Singapore 238877

Omakase Burger has been creating a huge buzz since it opened in Singapore, apparently being modeled after the famous Shake Shack in New York. The burgers, while very tasty indeed, are a tad bit on the small side compared to other gourmet burgers. The fries, however, are s...

Hot Pot @ HaiDiLao (海底捞火锅) $50.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

#02-04 Clark Quay, 3D River Valley Road

HaiDiLao is one of the most famous restaurants in China, known for their great hot pot and amazing service. They have been a huge hit in Singapore since opening, with reservations near impossible to make and wait times averaging 1.5 - 2 hours; this is made a bit more bear...

Steak & Burratta @ Bistecca Tuscan Steakhouse

Steak & Burratta @ Bistecca Tuscan ... $150.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

25 Mohamed Sultan Road, Singapore 238969

My first experience here was thanks to Reg, Steph, & Lulu for an amazing birthday dinner. The burrata (one of my favorite dishes ever!) was great, especially paired with the tomatoes. Coupled with the costata steak made for an incredible meal - definitely one of my favori...

Si Chuan Duo Hua (四川豆花)

(1 vote)

Park Royal, 7500 Beach Road, Singapore 199591

I had heard a lot about Si Chuan Duo Hua from my parents but had procrastinated in going for a while, thinking it to be a typical over-hyped hotel restaurant. After finally trying it out though, I love the selection and quality of the food. Lots of their dishes are great,...

Rosti @ Marche $7.00

(1 vote)

per rosti

313 Orchard Road, Level 1, Discovery Walk, Singapore 238895

I absolutely love rosti, and this is by far my favorite place to get it in Singapore. The queue attests to the quality of this dish - it is typically a dozen or so people long at any time of the day. Love the crisp texture of the fried outsides, plus an extra large servin...

Yakitori @ Shin Kushiya $50.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

#02-120 Vivo City, 1 Harbourfront Walk

Came here due to Reg's high opinion of it plus a Groupon deal and was not disappointed. The other stuff like sushi was decent, but the main attraction is definitely the yakitori. All of the skewers tasted as good as they looked, especially the beef ones. The lamb rack was...

Bak Kut Teh @ Ya Hua (亞華肉骨茶) $10.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

#01-05/07 Tanjong Pagar Complex, 7A Keppel Road, Singapore 089053

Bak Kut Teh (pork rib soup) is one of the signature Singaporean dishes that tourists need to try, and locals love having (especially after a heavy night of drinking!). Ya Hua is one of the most famous joints in Singapore and my personal favorite - it helps that it is walk...

Burratina & Iberico @ Moosehead Kitchen-Bar

(1 vote)

110 Telok Ayer Street, Singapore

A very unique small little shop in Telok Ayer, Moosehead has a wonderful story behind it. The concept here is great - there are a few items on the menu, but all of them are amazing. My personal favorites would be the burratina (cheese ball, $18) and the secreto iberico (p...

Crab Bee Hoon @ Mellben Seafood $50.00

(1 vote)

avg. per pax

12 Prince Edward Road, Bestway Building, Singapore

Ask any local about Mellben Seafood and they'll be sure to mention the famous 'Ang Mo Kio Crab Beehoon'. I love bringing visitors here since the dish is less famous than the touristy staples like chili crab and chicken rice, but once they try it they always love it. My fa...

Chicken Pot & La Zi Ji @ Fat Bird (... $35.00

(2 votes)

avg. per pax

1 Liang Seah Street, #01-15/16, Singapore

Fat Bird is my go-to place when I'm craving something spicy. The Chongqing-style chicken pot isn't your traditional hot-pot where you cook raw meat in a soup, but rather more of a stew where the meat is already cooked and it simmers in a boiling sauce that brings out the ...

Fried Awesomeness @ KFC $10.00

(1 vote)

for a full meal

Not sure why I fell in love with KFC so much after coming back to Singapore compared to the US, but I always look forward to a meal there. My standard order consists of a 2 pc meal (Hot & Crispy, Drumstick + Thigh), upgrading the coleslaw to Cheese Fries, and adding on a ...

Sharks Fin @ Thai Village $60.00

No votes yet

per bowl

2 Stadium Walk #01-02/03 Singapore Indoor Stadium (Carpark L), Singapore 397691

A favorite of my grandmother, the sharks fin at Thai Village is my favorite type - thick and flavorful with some crab meat thrown in there. I far prefer it to the clear, broth-type versions at most other venues. It comes at a pretty hefty price tag though ($60 for a bowl ...

US Ribeye Steak @ New Ubin Seafood $60.00

(1 vote)

for 500g set

63 Hillview Avenue, Level 6 (Canteen), Singapore 669569

While this place has the look and feel of a coffee shop, it has one of the best value-for-money steaks in Singapore. The quality and taste of the US Ribeye here is fantastic, and you'll see every table ordering at least one or two of these babies. The pricing is $12 per 1...

Truffle Fries @ PS Cafe $15.00

per plate of fries

Paragon, 290 Orchard Road

Ahh, Truffle Fries. Can't get enough of them, and this dish is literally the reason I made this website. PS Cafe is probably the de-facto answer to the 'where should I get truffle fries' question, and it never disappoints. The serving is pretty huge (though I can finish i...

Shabu Shabu @ Akashabu $50.00

avg. per pax

5 Stadium Walk, Singapore 397693

My Dad's favorite shabu shabu joint, there was a time he would ask us to go literally 3-4 times a week. The US beef here is excellent, though at $20 a plate (100 grams?) it probably isn't the best choice if you are super hungry. They also serve pretty good sushi/sashimi, ...

avg. per pax

462 Upper East Coast Road

The Lim Family favorite and a place we've been frequenting from literally before I was born (the waitresses knew me when I was still in my mother's tummy), I probably eat here on average once every week or two. They have a traditional Singaporean seafood menu, but my favo...
