A romantic al-fresco setting right on the river, with fantastic views of the CBD and Boat Quay.

Description:

Indochine Waterfront is a fabulous place for out-of-town guests to enjoy dinner with a view. Its al-fresco, fairy-lit dining area makes it a popular location for romantic dinners a deux, while its proximity to the CBD also makes it a popular choice with the business entertaining crowd. Across the river from Boat Quay, its riverside setting allows you to dine while watching the lantern-lit bum boats cruise past, watch the lights of the Boat Quay bars reflect in the water and marvel at the sky scrapers towering above you.

But it's not all about the view - the menu boasts delicious and innovative dishes with influences from throughout Southeast Asian, many with a French twist. Choose from such delights as Khmer Style Tamarind Seafood Trio, Lemongrass Mussels, Black Pepper Beef with Garlic and Butter and Roast Duck with Lychees and Pineapple.

Perfect for a romantic dinner.

Description:

Chinese Artist-musician Zhang Jin Jie, in collaboration with the famous Tung Lok group, has conceived of this contemporary restaurant. The cuisine is authentic Chinese, and each dish is served in an extraordinarily imaginative way. Everything from design accessories to the furniture is exquisite; they are almost pieces of art in themselves. The place gets very busy at dinnertime. Reservations are highly recommended.

One of Singapore's most renowned restaurants.

Description:

This intimate 40-seat restaurant on the 70th floor of the Swissotel the Stamford is often listed amongst Asia's top restaurants. Guests dine below a stunning Murano crystal and silver free-flow chandelier that spans the entire length of the restaurant, while through the windows the dynamic Singapore skyline is laid out below. With such a dramatic setting, the food needs to work hard to compete, and since October 2011 that challenge has fallen to chef de cuisine Julien Royer - a 29 year-old who trained under three-Michelin star chef Michel Bras. Royer describes his menu as 'artisanal cuisine', with seasonal produce being sourced from around the world, with a focus on organic farms. Expect Norwiegan scallops, New Zealand lobster, Welsh lamb - and of course, French cheeses. A wine list of nearly 500 bottles is available for matching.

High-class Italian with a spectacular view.

Description:

Forlino brings Northern Italian fine dining to the Fullerton Heritage Development. Helmed by Michelin-Star Restaurant trained Giuliano Dacasto, Forlino experiments with rustic Northern Italian flavors served in the finest style of dining. Amuse-bouches abound, such as delicate liver pate on toast and eggplant fritter. Quality ingredients elevated this establishment from merely wonderful to sublime, with octopus salad and pan roasted scallops next to Black Cod and Peppermint Artichoke Spaghetti. If you are feeling especially decadent, order the Pumpkin Risotto with Goose Liver and Amaretto, or the Saffron and Bone Marrow risotto - on second thought, just order ANY of their delectable risottos! If cost is an issue, be sure to stop by for their Set Lunch.

Description:

The most striking feature of the Flutes At The Fort is its location and interiors. Set in the former residence of the old Fire Chiefs, it is a magnificent piece of architecture surrounded by the lush greenery of the Fort Canning Park. Guests can choose to dine in the comforts of the Fire Chief's Retreat or savor their meal in the open wood deck verandah. The menu is largely contemporary with everything from European to American dishes served. However, Australian cuisine dominates the wide variety. Savor culinary delights like the Pan Fried Foie Gras, Seared Red Emperor Fillet, Poached Egg with Black Truffle and the Raspberry Mousse Cheesecake here. Accompany these with an Australian, Italian, Chilean, French and Kiwi wine for a delightful gastronomical affair.

Superb Italian food in a classy setting.

Description:

In Asia authentic Italian Food is still something of a rarity. However Garibaldi's selection of pastas, risottos, fish, and desserts is suitable for even the most discerning Italian palate. Offering over 250 Italian wines, the drink list is sure to offset your meal.
