Built around oakwood flames and a dramatic cave-like interior, Gochu reimagines Korean dining with signature dishes like Deep-Fried Chili Peppers with crispy green chilies stuffed with pork, tofu, and vegetables; and slow-braised Pork Ribs BBQ finished over a smokeless grill at your table.

From the #6 Cheese Toastie with six Italian cheeses to the spicy Folded Eggs alla Diavola and a standout Italian Fried Chicken (IFC 28), the menu is bold, indulgent, and unapologetically playful. Think ricotta hotcakes with coffee mascarpone or spritzes from the Bellini Bar with lemon foam and lychee syrup. The setting by EDG Design, is a Mediterranean reverie of tiled arches, lemon trees, and mosaic details. With no reservations and a granita trolley that rolls in at 3pm, this is Singapore\u2019s new ode to dolce far niente.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udccd 10 Craig Road, Tanjong Pagar, Singapore 089670<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u23f0 Mon\u2013Sun: 10am\u20136pm (Last order: 4.30pm)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \ud83d\udd17<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fortunaterrazza.cafe\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@fortunaterrazza.cafe<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> |<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/fortunaterrazza.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fortunaterrazza.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Loca Niru<\/b><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DNuoVGxQhgO\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DNuoVGxQhgO\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by Loca Niru (@locanirusg)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">History whispers through every beam at Loca Niru, the first fine-dining concept to open within the storied House of Tan Yeok Nee, a 140-year-old national monument now welcoming the public for the first time.

Led by Chef Drew Nocente, whose Italian roots and Australian upbringing converge in every dish, Il Toro is built around the primal theatre of fire where 90% of the cooking happens over crackling Australian ironbark, apple, and orange wood. Expect deeply charred meats and a signature Blackmore Wagyu Tri Tip (MS9), along with inventive creations like sea bream with smoked bone sauce and Amalfi lemon. Don\u2019t miss the theatrical Mint Slice dessert, finished at the table with a vintage cast-iron press. From the glowing grill to the intimate timber-clad interiors, this is fire, flavour, and craft distilled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udccd 18 Gemmill Lane, Singapore 069255<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u23f0 Tue\u2013Sat: 12pm\u20132:30pm &amp;

Chef Angelo Sergio, a Puglia native and certified olive oil sommelier, weaves together culinary traditions from 11 Italian regions into an elegant, ingredient-forward menu. Signature dishes include smoky Tagliatelle Atavi e Porcini, Baccal\u00e0 in Umido, and the one-kilogram Bistecca alla Fiorentina. There\u2019s also a gelato cart, tableside cannoncini, and a Sunday brunch affair complete with live music and free-flow Ruinart. Whether you\u2019re here for a spritz, a salame di cioccolato, or just a dash of la dolce vita, Sophia is poised to become the city\u2019s new Italian rendezvous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udccd 29 Tanglin Road, The St. Regis Singapore, Singapore 247911<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u23f0 Lunch: Mon\u2013Sat: 12pm\u20132:30pm | Dinner: Daily: 6:30pm\u201310:30pm | Brunch: Sun: 12:30pm\u20133pm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \ud83d\udd17<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/stregissg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@stregissg<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> |<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/sophia.com.sg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sophia.com.sg<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Bibik Violet<\/b><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_402493\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-402493\" style=\"width: 1320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-402493\" src=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST.jpg\" alt=\"Traditional Peranakan dishes at Bibik Violet Singapore featuring nasi lemak, laksa, satay, and nyonya favourites in vintage-style serveware\" width=\"1320\" height=\"880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST-767x511.jpg 767w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/BIBIK-VIOLET_FEAST-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 959px) 688px, 768px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-402493\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Courtesy of Bibik Violet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the soul of a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bibik\u2019s<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> kitchen and the heart of social impact, Bibik Violet is the newest casual concept by the Violet Oon Group nestled within the reimagined Temasek Shophouse.
