• Oretachi No Nikuya★ Michelin This paradise for beef lovers is just the ticket for discerning connoisseurs. The young owner-chef knows his cattle inside out and sources prize-winning breeds from all over Japan, including Akage Wagyu from Kumamoto and some rare ones not found elsewhere. Both the set and à la carte menus showcase premium cuts that are perfectly grilled to your order by the highly-skilled team. They also explain every cut in detail, together with where they source their produce.1.0km
• Ke Kou Beef NoodlesBib Both the owner and his wife are beef lovers, and Ke Kou is their brainchild. The signature noodle soup with red braised beef and sinew boasts a complex and rich broth – simmered for hours with 35 different Chinese herbs – that perfectly complements the springy noodles and tender Australian beef shin. Another must-try is their noodles dressed in duo sauces – the mildly sweet homemade sesame peanut paste, and the savoury bean sauce fried fresh daily.186m
• House of DawnBib With just 8 tables, this little gem is its owner’s pride and joy. Much effort went into the fine details – red bricks against terrazzo walls, bespoke hand-thrown ceramic dinnerware against sleek wood furniture. The aptly named ‘noodles extraordinaire’, artisan ramen dressed in a secret chilli and sesame sauce, are quite unique. Golden, crispy potstickers take 30 minutes to prepare but are well worth the wait.221m
• Fleur de Sel★ Michelin The chef worked in France and Italy for 30 years before opening her restaurant in 2003, relocating to this elegant space in 2017. She uses mostly local ingredients in seven- to nine-course prix fixe menus with a choice of mains. Changing every season, the precisely executed menus never fail to surprise with their whimsical ideas and vivid colours. Her signature use of wine, Asian spices and herbs lends her dishes exceptional depth and aromas.1.7km
• JL STUDIO★★★ MichelinWorld's 50 Best #33 (The restaurant is temporarily closed.) JL is Jimmy Lim, a Singaporean chef who honed his skills in world-famous kitchens. His single evening set menu pays tribute to his heritage and experience with original creations that strike a fine balance of flavours. The dishes are complex, sophisticated and understated with an element of surprise. Singaporean staples like satay and chilli crab are re-imagined in ingenious forms and textures that playfully subvert expectations.2.4km
• Night School Braised Pork RiceBib This late-night supper venue is perfect for night owls, and the later it gets, the busier it becomes. Unsurprisingly, braised pork rice is the bestseller – freshly slaughtered pork is stewed in soy, sugar, wine and shallot until gelatinous and bouncy. Top with pickles or spicy dried radish to cut through the richness. Served in bento boxes, the rice comes with sides like shredded bamboo shoot, braised napa cabbage and fried tofu.1.0km
• Kung Fu Shanghai Fish BallBib The push cart out front turns back the clock and the retro vibe is pursued indoors. For over 10 years, the owner-chef has been making fish balls, wontons and sauces from scratch. He orders his noodles from his favourite shop in Shuinan Market because of their bouncy texture. Purists should try noodles tossed in scallion oil for its simple, but addictive aromas. Marlin fish ball soup with salted potherb mustard is another best-seller.1.2km
• Fu Juang YuanBib One of the most famous spots in town for braised pork trotters, this shop keeps the liquid gold – made with soy, rock sugar, chillis and shallots – on a gentle simmer all day, hence the comforting aroma. While trotters are prized for their gelatinous texture, upper leg cuts strike a fine balance between fat, skin and meat. Drizzle the steamed rice with a spoon of marinade. A dab of the house-made bird’s eye chilli sauce cuts through the richness.1.5km
• AjisaiBib Stained glass windows and wooden shelving contrast beautifully against the cement walls of this noodle shop. The owner used to run a private kitchen specialising in Jiangzhe cooking. The menu thus revolves around noodles from Jiangzhe area, along with some Sichuanese options. The side dishes she makes every morning are also a reason to visit – try the bitter melon simmered with rock sugar if available. Open 3 days a week. Check social media before visiting.1.7km
• Küisine (West)Bib This unpretentious joint, tucked away in a residential alley, feels homely and relaxing. Each guest is expected to order at least one set menu with a main, rice, and either soup or drinks. The Taichungese rice works well with Taiwanese, Southeast Asian and Japanese dishes. Popular mains include Kung Pao chicken with cashew nuts or golden curry omelette. Everything is sourced and certified from small local farms.2.0km
