Taking over the now-defunct Moo Bar and Grill opposite Amoy Street Food Centre, Ash & Char offers delicious Western grub at pocket-friendly prices — nothing over $20 for mains. Run by the same folks behind Rise and Grind Co, the only mainstay on the menu is their signature Tom Yum Seafood Pasta ($17). Come with a few colleagues in tow and start the meal by sharing the heaping pile of Vietnamese Loaded Fries ($9). What Burppler Jayson Yeo describes as a "plate of sinful pleasure" sees golden wands of skin-on potatoes drenched in mayonnaise, hoisin sauce and Vietnamese chilli. For mains, opt for the crispy Chicken Leg Confit ($15) — beneath that crackling skin lies tender and moist chicken flesh that pairs well with the sweet potato mash. Wash it all down with a cup of Flat White before heading back to work!
Avg Price: $20 per person
