Fine food and fun food may appear to be opposites—foie gras is fine, not fun; croquette is fun, not fine—but somehow The Wagon at Tras Street has managed to marry the two. I shall call it “fune food.”
Not disgusting.
Vatos Urban Tacos has arrived to Singapore from Korea. Who knew that Korean cuisine would fit so well with Mexican food?

Tiger’s Milk at The Club Hotel is a Rooftop Bar Atop Ann Siang Hill, serving Peruvian Small Plates.
4-month old Shukuu Izakaya is a great new place for large groups of friends, for both gourmands and alcoholics.
Japanese has an affinity with old cultures like Italian and French, so you see Japanese chefs opening Italian restaurants, and French-inspired Japanese cafes.

At Boat Quay, Ah Sam’s Cold Drinks Stall and Kacang Putih are next to each other. Both are on the second floor, overlooking Boat Quay, and both bars have localized names and serve bespoke cocktails at about $25 or so. But there are subtle differences, and that is all that makes the difference.

At Equilibrium at Capitol Piazza, Chef Samdy Kan, whose work experience includes Senso and Ritz Carlton, presents a modern Italian menu with modernist desserts. Although some tweaking is required for the food recipes, it holds great promise. Hopefully, in time, Equilibrium will reach equilibrium.
