Nordic Noms
A new Scandinavian restaurant has opened on Duxton Road, offering a taste of Nordic cuisine in Singapore. Led by Norwegian chef Daniel JungEldøy – who opened Michelin-starred restaurant Galt and Schlagergården in Oslo – Dill combines a relaxed ambience with a focus on authentic flavours, including seafood sourced directly from Norway. The restaurant’s cosy dining area and long bar table set the scene for both casual bites and more refined dining, with a set menu dinner or lighter snacks and small plates perfect for winding down after a busy day.
World’s Best Bars: How Did Singapore Do?
The 16th edition of the World’s 50 Best Bars, sponsored by Perrier, has been announced, featuring knockout bars from 28 cities across the globe. Singapore continues to lead Asia’s cocktail scene with an impressive four spots on the list! At the top for Singapore, Jigger & Pony holds a No. 5 ranking, while Atlas makes its mark at No. 43. New to the list, Nutmeg & Clove debuts at No. 28, and Analogue Initiative joins at No. 47, showcasing Singapore’s evolving bar landscape. Singapore’s Cat Bite Club also received the Campari One To Watch Award, an accolade given to a promising bar outside the top 50 that the 50 Best team believes has the potential to shine in future editions.
Sip the Season
Take time to unwind with limited-edition festive blends from The 1872 Clipper Tea Co. This year’s holiday collection features three unique teas: There for Me, a black Ceylon tea with warming chai spices; Creature Comforts, a caffeine-free floral blend of passionflower, chamomile, and rose petals; and Love Letter, a fruity blend of strawberry, hibiscus and creamy milk oolong.

Spice Up Your Christmas Spread
Add a little extra zing to your festive table this year with Shahi Maharani’s Tandoori Turkeys and Chickens. Available until 1 January and serving six to eight people, these 100 percent halal delights from the North Indian restaurant are packed with flavour. The secret?

Opt for the turkey stuffed with slow-cooked minced meat biryani, or try the 2.5kg leg of lamb.
