Your day-to-night foodie map to Keong Saik Road 21 Oct 2016

Singapore has made a name for itself as one of the culinary capitals of the world, and Keong Saik Road is the latest hotspot drawing crowds for its innovative eateries and stylish drinking establishments. Singapore has seen rapid growth over the last decade, and the expansion of its food scene is no exception. With a foundation of traditional Malay, Indian and Chinese food vendors, the city-state is now a kaleidoscope of restaurants, bars and cafes that reect the modern-day multicultural face of this island.

This variety is probably best on display at Keong Saik Road. Filled with trendy hotels, bistros, bars and a sprinkling of boutiques, this part of Chinatown is a must for anyone visiting or wanting to experience a different part of town. Set aside a day to amble down the street and sample the delicious fare from these recommended spots for each of your meals.

Wake up to a hearty breakfast or brunch Chic and polished, Saturday brunch at The Study is the highlight of any culinary week. The British influence is evident in the Big English Breakfast, scones with a choice of jams and the Marmelado cocktail with rhubarb marmalade and vodka. If you don’t make it for the boozy brunch, then make sure you have lunch or dinner.

The comfy interiors of The Study

For a traditional Singaporean-style breakfast, head to Tong Ah Eating House for kaya toast and soft-boiled eggs. Kaya is a popular Southeast Asian spread made with coconut milk, eggs and sugar. Try dipping the toast into the runny yolks for an experience like never before. And while you're at it, why not add a sprinkling of soy sauce and pepper on the eggs for a tasty combination? This long-standing eatery is open from 6.30am on weekdays (but closed on every other Wednesday), and is popular among young professionals from nearby offices.

Snacks to swoon over and take with you No matter how heavy a breakfast you've had, you'll deďŹ nitely want to make room for some light bites as you explore the area.

The interior is clean and cool, making it the perfect location for a long, relaxed lunch.

Best bars to be seen at How can a day ever be good without ending with some drinks? Luckily Keong Saik Road leads you in the right direction at the end of the day. There's Potato Head Folk, the local branch of Bali's famous Potato Head beach club. Offering a three-in-one dining concept, take your pick from Three Buns burgers, the intimate and elegant cocktail lounge Studio 1939 and a rooftop tiki bar for a more relaxed atmosphere. Something of an institution in Singapore, The Library is a cocktail bar in the speakeasy tradition, a throwback to the time when illicit liquor establishments thrived in the Prohibition Era in the US. Entry requires a password, which can be obtained from sister establishment, The Study, next door or through Twitter. Enjoy great drinks, music and vibes. 31 Bar & Kitchen serves a good selection of main courses plus an extensive range of whiskeys. The drink offerings include a basic cocktail menu and a comprehensive list of wines, beers and spirits. If you’re looking for somewhere to sit and chat over something on ice, this is the place for you.
