Must Try

Manzoku (which translates to "satisfaction" in Japanese) is the latest concept of the Yoi Group, which also manages the wildly popular Chikuwa Tei. In addition to the existing items on Chikuwa Tei's menu, Manzoku also offers yakitori items. This means that more seats are now available for diners keen on having Chikuwa Tei's star item -- their Chirashi -- a bed of rice adorned with thick slices of salmon, swordfish, tuna, and amberjack sashimi with ikura and tamago. The thickness of the cuts of sashimi here are the stuff dreams and legends are made of, and their Chirashi is arguably one of the most popular and value-for-money variants around. Remember to make a reservation!

This brand new tasting-menu restaurant helmed by Johnston Teo (formerly from Jaan and The Tippling Club) is the latest addition to Loh Lik Peng's Unlisted Collection. Contributing to Singapore's understanding of the growth of "bistronomy", Sorrel's space channels a chic bistro vibe while serving you really, really good food expected of a far stiffer restaurant. Lunches come in either three ($45) or five courses ($88), while dinners are available in five or seven courses ($118). The food here is often exciting and startling in both texture and flavour combination -- prepare to be wowed by their Pumpkin with Coconut and Smoked Eel, and the Roasted Langoustine with Pan-seared Foie Gras with Morel Mushrooms.
