An elevated take on Korean BBQ. Unlike the usual dark smoky BBQ joints, The Chungdam House feels bright and classy, almost like dining in a fancy restaurant. It’s a great spot if you want to impress your date or enjoy KBBQ in a nice and comfortable setting. We ordered the pork set and an à la carte side of marinated beef, and wow the beef really impressed me. It was so tender and full of flavour. The wine list is also great, perfect for pairing and making the whole meal feel a little extra special.

Tucked away in the vibey enclave of New Bahru, One Prawn & Co is a dining spot that really knows how to create an experience. The open-kitchen concept lets you watch the chefs at work, giving the meal an almost omakase-style “atas” vibe that feels both intimate and exciting.

The meal began with a plump, succulent oyster. The chef was kind enough to let us mix things up! One served grilled with Thai chilli for a punchy kick, and another kept chilled and fresh. That thoughtful flexibility set the tone for the rest of the evening.
From the eight-course menu, the standout for me was definitely the 16-day aged fish. something I’ve never quite experienced before.

The cocktails here deserve a shoutout too. They playfully riff on familiar local flavours, like the chng thng cocktail that’s both nostalgic and refreshing, alongside other inventive mixes that keep things fun and surprising.
