Atlas is a Bar that intoxicates everyone with the most splendorous ambience in Singapore

Not all that glitters is gold. Nonetheless, Atlas’ splendour is pure bliss for the senses. It’s not an audacious claim to say that no other bar in Singapore is as recognisable as the Parkview Square anchor unit with all its gilded majesty.

Meadesmoore is Singapore’s best casual alternative to stuffy steakhouses

Steakhouses are no longer the decorous grand affairs of the yesteryears. While prim and proper establishments still possess their old-school draw, Singapore is seeing casually chic steakhouses take the spotlight — places like Meadesmoore at Telok Ayer.

Amoy Street’s Golden Boy — Stay Gold Flamingo Overflows with no-holds-barred Rock ‘N’ Roll CHarm

Unit number 69 — nice. A foray into Stay Gold Flamingo’s Amoy Street shopfront may initially feel like a catfishing experience. The amiable cream walls, complimented by a smattering of auburn accents and an array of voguish floral arrangements, barely utter a hint of dive bar irreverence.

Hidden Gem Maddie’s Kitchen Cooks up tasty Comfort Flavours & Stunning Oyster Omelettes

Orchard is a district that doesn’t appear up top on the list of the best zichar restaurants in Singapore but to me, Maddie’s Kitchen at Far East Plaza deserves all the plaudits for setting up a space serving tasty comfort flavours, slightly elevated but still kept reasonably affordable for its prime location.

Revolver Polishes up Indian Fusion Tapas at Barood, Its chic Izakaya Date spot upstairs

All I see is red. Up the barely illuminated staircase beside Revolver and past a gilded sign that demarcated the secret entrance of Barood, the seemingly seedy second-storey lounge was covered floor-to-ceiling in an unending swathe of impassioned crimson.

Cafe Brera at Reunion — Iconic Artisan Bakery Opens sit-down cafe at National Museum of Singapore

There aren’t many bakeries as iconic in the local cafe scene as Bakery Brera, a stalwart fixture at Farrer Road that operates out of a compact shophouse unit, almost like a polished “HDB-downstairs bakery”, strikingly diminutive for an establishment of its stature and popularity.
