Old Fashioned (think: peanut butter whisky, cacao, and coconut smoke) steal the show.

WILD\/FIRE roars back onto Singapore\u2019s culinary stage with bold new flavour and fire-forward finesse. Celebrating a decade of smoke, meat, and muscle, this revamped bistro-bar is all about wood-fired precision and unapologetic indulgence. Wagyu burgers from Stone Axe, hanger steaks kissed by flame, lamb kebabs, and even spatchcocked French poussin anchor a menu that doesn’t play it safe. Their coffee program is just as serious, curating roasts from cult-favourite roasters like Morning (SG), Fritz (KR), and ST. ALi (AUS). Whether you’re chasing a truffled mushroom burger, a dram of Orientalist gin, or an espresso martini with Pedro Xim\u00e9nez sherry, WILD\/FIRE is the kind of place that lingers in your memory and your palate.<\/p>\n

Whimsical and worldly, <\/span>Mondo<\/span><\/i> is Singapore\u2019s newest gelato and coffee bar, where dessert gets a heady twist. Nestled along Amoy Street, this moody 30-seater serves up small-batch gelato in daring flavours like Blue Cheese & Candied Pear and Pineapple Makgeolli. There\u2019s even a Brandy & Raisin gelato spiked for grown-up pleasure. Cocktail lovers can go deeper with their S$22 alcoholic floats. Think artisanal gelato meets in-house cocktails on tap via a slick Six Simple Machines system. Espresso? They\u2019re pulling award-winning ONA beans from Canberra. Equal parts laboratory and lounge, Mondo is where gelato, caffeine, and creativity collide.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not your typical izakaya. <\/span>Daikoku<\/span><\/i> at Kada Maxwell introduces Singapore\u2019s first <\/span>Miso Tare Yakitori<\/b>, featuring a rare duo of Sendai and Saiky\u014d miso, a caramelised glaze that clings, smokes, and transforms every skewer. Helmed by Chef Kunagai, who brings over 20 years of yakitori mastery from Sendai, this intimate 40-seater champions rare cuts like chicken comb and offers free otoshi (surprise side dishes) with every drink in the first hour. Beyond yakitori, look out for Pitan Tofu, ice plant salads, and sake labels you won\u2019t find elsewhere, each sip a story. It\u2019s authentic, soulful, and quietly revolutionary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tucked within Hilton Singapore Orchard, <\/span>Ginger.Lily Bar<\/span><\/i> isn’t just pouring drinks, it\u2019s curating multi-sensory journeys. This newly launched bar concept riffs on the five senses with <\/span>Synaesthesia 2.0<\/span><\/i>, a cocktail series that plays with flavour, sound, colour, and even emotion. Imagine sipping a butter chicken-inspired <\/span>Eau de Curry<\/b> whisky cocktail while a curated scent and soundscape deepen the experience. From miso-citrus blends to molecular mojito caviar, it’s experimental yet grounded, with flights of 5 or 10 cocktails for the curious. Friday and Saturday nights turn up the vibe with genre-fluid DJ sets and occasional guest shifts from top regional bartenders.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chef Louis Han\u2019s Michelin-starred <\/span>NAE:UM<\/span><\/i> has reopened its doors as <\/span>NAE:UM 2.0<\/span><\/i>. A refined evolution, not a reinvention. The new “Contemporary Korean cuisine” tells a cohesive story through an 8-course tasting menu ($268++) or a shorter 5-course version ($198++). Expect poetic plates like \u2018memilmyeon & mandu\u2019, buckwheat noodles with duck galbi dumpling; and \u2018hansang\u2019, a soulful finale of gochujang-marinated mountain root atop rice and banchan. Designed in the style of a <\/span>sinhanok<\/span><\/i> (new hanok), the space invites quiet contemplation with wood, stone, and light. It\u2019s not just a restaurant. It\u2019s a slow-burning, memory-laced journey.<\/span><\/p>\n

After a quiet transformation, <\/span>Ki-sho<\/span><\/i> returns under the helm of Chef Taro Takayama, formerly private chef to Japan\u2019s ambassador and a name synonymous with <\/span>kappo<\/span><\/i> finesse in Singapore. Nestled in a colonial black-and-white bungalow, this intimate 11-seater restaurant now offers multi-course menus ($160\u2013$360++) built on childhood memories, peak-season produce, and Japan\u2019s prized <\/span>Tottori Wagyu<\/b>, available the first time in Singapore. Expect Chef\u2019s signature Donabe Rice made with dashi-cured ikura and premium Tokyo grains, and a sensory feast that speaks to soul and season. It also boasts over 300 wines and rare sake bottles (including an exclusive Eiheiji Hakuryu), brewed by Japan\u2019s youngest female toji with heirloom Yamadanishiki rice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inspired by fictional bon vivant Horatio Fairchild, this theatrical whisky-forward bar spins stories through its globally inspired <\/span>Trails & Tales<\/span><\/i> cocktail collection – 12 inventive drinks rooted in the world\u2019s great distilling regions. But what\u2019s truly got people talking is <\/span>Horatio\u2019s Curious Companions<\/span><\/i>, a new monthly guest shift series kicking off with Sago House\u2019s Jay Gray (25 Sep), bringing cocktails, music, and mystery (password-only drink included). It\u2019s part speakeasy, part explorer\u2019s den, and fully intoxicating in the best ways.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where burnt meets brew. <\/span>Basq & Bean<\/span><\/i> is a sleek new caf\u00e9 on Beach Road that marries Basque cheesecake artistry with Southeast Asia\u2019s thriving coffee culture. Expect caramelised, custardy cakes in flavours like Original, Dark Chocolate, and Pandan Kaya. Always sold whole, never by the slice. Coffee beans hail from Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, roasted in three profiles (think: floral light roast to winey dark). Cosy interiors of warm wood and ambient light make it perfect for mindful solo moments or your next IG caf\u00e9 drop. Bonus points for sustainability: spent coffee grounds are upcycled with local partner A1 Environment.<\/span><\/p>\n
