Best Restaurants in Singapore
A curated guide to the best restaurants in Singapore — from iconic local institutions to under-the-radar spots worth crossing the city for.
Where to eat in Singapore
Liao Fan Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice
The world's cheapest Michelin-starred meal — a plate of roasted soy sauce chicken with rice for $3. The skin is lacquered and glistening, the meat is succulent. Chinatown Complex, queue from 10am.
Burnt Ends
A modern Australian BBQ restaurant with a custom 4-tonne wood-fired oven. The pulled pork brioche and the marrow with beef jam are extraordinary. Book weeks ahead for counter seats facing the fire.
Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice
The most famous chicken rice in Singapore at Maxwell Food Centre. The poached chicken is impossibly silky, the rice is fragrant with chicken fat, and the chilli sauce is the perfect condiment.
Odette
Three Michelin stars in the National Gallery. Chef Julien Royer's French-Asian tasting menu is Singapore's most refined dining experience. The botan shrimp with high mountain oolong is transcendent.
328 Katong Laksa
The best laksa in Singapore — a rich coconut-curry soup with prawns, cockles, and cut rice noodles (you eat with a spoon). The gravy is impossibly creamy and the sambal kicks perfectly.
Keng Eng Kee Seafood
A zi char (wok-fried) restaurant in Alexandra doing Singapore's best moonlight hor fun — flat noodles in egg gravy with prawns. The coffee pork ribs are the other must-order. Dinner queues are long.
Labyrinth
Modern Singaporean cuisine that reimagines hawker food — chilli crab ice cream, Hokkien mee broth as a consommé. Chef LG Han celebrates Singapore's food heritage with wit and technique.
Hill Street Tai Hwa Pork Noodle
Another Michelin-starred hawker stall, this time for bak chor mee — minced pork noodles with vinegar and chilli. The springy noodles and the savoury-tangy sauce are addictive. Crawford Lane, expect a queue.
