2 Best Restaurants in Singapore

Firangi Superstar

$$$ | Tanjong Pagar

Billed as a love letter to India, this restaurant focuses on modern Indian cuisine. The food tries to tell a story, with the signature "This Is Also Not Aloo Gobi" offering a fun play on the traditional cauliflower potato dish, while cocktails use South Asian ingredients like ghee and masala to elevate classics. Everything from the newspaper-like menu to the themed room names (Officer’s Club, Jungle Lodge) reflects intricate and playful design, building a new, modern narrative of colonial India.The Champagne brunch on Saturday is a crowd favorite, and all menu options have a vegetarian alternative (if they aren't vegetarian already).  There is a smart-casual dress code requiring closed-toed shoes and long pants for men and prohibiting sports wear.
