They recently moved from 60 Bussorah Street to 32 Bussorah Street. The food was really authentic & the staff were so so friendly.

You’d have to 100% try their Kunefe, it was the best one I’ve ever had😍😍 Other things I’d recommend is their lamb pide and lamb mandi, and of course the hummus! So so yummy!

Derwish Turkish offers a vibrant and satisfying dive into Middle Eastern flavours. Highlights include silky hummus, crisp cheese-filled borek, and a fall-off-the-bone lamb shank in rich tomato sauce. The Mixed Grill is a generous, flavour-packed platter perfect for sharing. Don’t miss the Kunefe—crispy, warm, cheesy, and topped with ice cream. Refreshing drinks like mint lemonade and Mango Ayran round out the experience. Bold, hearty, and full of warmth—Derwish is a delicious taste of Turkish hospitality.

Guccio Ristorante offers an intimate glimpse into Chef Marco Guccio's heritage and passion for authentic Italian cuisine. Hailing from Milan, this is where he brings his family's Italian heritage to life - with recipes passed down from his grandmother and mother, every dish here is a testament to his dedication, with all items meticulously crafted in-house—including the warm, inviting starter bread.

We started with the Gamberi, featuring New Zealand prawns tartare bathed in a delicate pomegranate broth and crowned with Oscietra caviar. The prawns were impeccably fresh, their sweetness harmonizing beautifully with the subtle tartness of the broth, while the caviar added a luxurious briny depth.

Next, the Capesante — a plate of pan-seared Hokkaido scallops resting on a velvety pumpkin cream, adorned with raspberry pearl onions and trout roe. The scallops boasted a perfect sear, their natural sweetness enhanced by the creamy pumpkin and the gentle acidity of the onions, creating a symphony of flavors and textures.

For pasta, we had the Tortelli - delicate parcels filled with creamy burrata cheese, enveloped in a rich tomato passata and accompanied by marinated tomatoes infused with Sicilian oregano. Each bite was a comforting embrace, the pasta tender and the filling decadently creamy, evoking the warmth of a home-cooked Italian meal.

The main course featured the Maialino, a dish of slow-cooked Spanish suckling pig paired with a red apple compote and seasonal Romanesco broccoli. The pork was exquisitely tender, its savory richness complemented by the sweet tang of the apple compote, while the Romanesco added a delightful crunch and earthiness to the plate.

To conclude this culinary journey, I savored the Tiramisu, a cherished recipe from Chef Marco's mother, prepared just as it was during his childhood. This classic dessert was a nostalgic delight, with layers of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and mascarpone cream coming together in perfect harmony, offering a sweet and satisfying end to the meal.

The warm ambiance, attentive service, and heartfelt dishes make it a must-visit destination for those seeking a genuine taste of Italy in the heart of Singapore.

Nestled within the serene beauty of the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay, Hortus offers a truly relaxing dining experience surrounded by an abundance of vibrant blooms. Perfect for a special dinner, the ambiance alone is worth a visit, as it blends tranquility with elegance.

The standout dishes of our visit included the Black Angus sirloin, which was impeccably tender and juicy, delivering satisfaction with every bite. Paired with crispy, flavorful potatoes, the dish was a testament to the chef’s mastery. The orecchiette, cooked to a perfect al dente, was equally delightful and a joy to savor.

As an added bonus, dining at Hortus comes with complimentary entrance to the Flower Dome, where the Christmas Train Show floral display is currently in full swing. This enchanting showcase, a collaboration between Gardens by the Bay and the Embassy of the United States in Singapore, brings a century-old American Christmas tradition to life. Miniature model trains traverse intricate setups featuring iconic landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, Grand Central Terminal, and the Empire State Building.

A warm, comforting brew of black tea with a rich, robust flavour that’s soothing to the soul. Served with sugar for a touch of sweetness.

A small but intensely strong, rich, and aromatic cup of high-acidity coffee. It’s served with a glass of water and a piece of Lokum, aka Turkish delight, a soft, chewy confection made from sugar and starch, often flavoured with rosewater, lemon, or pistachios.
