1. Saint Pierre

Chef-owner Emmanuel Stroobant and his team have gone to great lengths to deliver a fine-dining experience to your home, in the form of bento boxes. But it’s not served in the ordinary packaging, rather in beautifully lacquered boxes containing 10 cold dishes.

Premium ingredients star in the chef’s signatures, including Aomari apples crowned with caviar, and enoki mushrooms held together by strips of grilled Omi beef. Similar to having a meal at Saint Pierre, Stroobant himself will welcome you to the virtual fine dining experience via a Zoom call. Call the restaurant or email them for orders and enquiries.

Staying home 24/7 is stressful enough as it is during this difficult period, so the chefs want to ease the burden by preparing your breakfast, lunch or dinner in bento sets. Sound good? Get the day started with a filling meal of scrambled eggs, chicken sausages, baked beans and greens.

Lunch or dinner depends on your preferred cuisine. Have the coq au vin with a side of mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables for fine French fare; if you want something local, the nasi lemak is served with crisp fried chicken wings, fried egg, achar and sambal chilli. Click here to order.
