Tatler Dining presents first dibs on these exciting dining and lifestyle offers from Singapore’s best

Dylan Ong is the man behind this popular Franco-Asian restaurant at The Capitol Kempinski. Why popular? Because Ong is for the people. Hell-bent on going against the grain, the Singaporean chef vows to keep serving quality food at accessible prices despite tumultuous times in Singapore’s restaurant industry. So much so that his Franco-Asian fare amassed a cult following. In his 150-seater restaurant, guests can expect a rotating menu that is both progressive and colloquially approachable. Think squid ink kuih pie tee topped with crab, jicama and hae bee hiam; a steak tartare lifted with pickled cai xin and wasabi; and the sizzling steak au poivre, featuring tender Australian Wagyu alongside chargrilled leeks, hazelnut vinaigrette, and thick steakhouse onion rings. 

But perhaps the longstanding crowd favourite remains the signature duck confit. The finessed duck leg comes with wok-kissed rice noodles, local mushrooms, Mirabelle plum vinaigrette and shavings of house-cured egg yolk. This is a darling dish that is essentially Ong on a plate where he proudly brandishes his hawker background of growing up in a kway chap stall run by his parents.

From April 1 to June 30, CMC Alpha members will be able to enjoy one complimentary glass of sparkling white wine per adult, of up to 9 pax per dining party. Offer valid for lunch from Mondays to Saturdays, brunch on Sundays, and dinner daily.

Calling all mud crab devotees, a meal in Sri Lanka’s mightiest crustacean export Ministry of Crab is sheer indulgence. Taking over an old Dutch hospital, the cavernous restaurant in Dempsey is its sixth international outpost where only the best catch of the day makes it to your table—the restaurant’s “no-freezer” policy maintains the highest of standards. The star of the show is the prized wild-caught Sri Lankan mud crab, best enjoyed either baked or cooked in Sri Lankan curry. 

But it won’t just be crabs as giant river prawns, freshly caught from Sri Lanka, are another show-stopper. Doused in award-winning Sri Lankan chef-restaurateur Dharshan Munidasa’s signature garlic chilli combination, these prawns promise meaty succulence and overflowing headbutter. With every order of a garlic chilli prawn, CMC members can enjoy a complimentary crab chawanmushi; a steaming hot and comforting introduction to an indulgent meal.

From March 1 to April 30, CMC Alpha members will be able to enjoy a complimentary crab chawanmushi with every order of garlic chilli prawn dish.

Past the unassuming wooden door, Moga, an emphatic amalgam between speakeasies from the Prohibition Era and izakayas from 1920s Japan, transports one to the alleyways of Tokyo. The interior of the modern Japanese concept is tastefully flashy, with inventive sharing plates that feature modern interpretations of izakaya classics such as the Moga samurai roll and crispy kakuni pork belly. With new head chef Leon Quek—formerly of Cut by Wolfgang Puck—at the helm, Moga debuts new creations including spicy meaty clams, imbued with flavours of chilli bean paste, saikyo miso, chilli crisp, and brightened with coriander; and the crispy squid with accompaniments of piquant sansho fish sauce, kizami yuzu and green chilli.

As for beverages, there are sophisticated craft cocktails to keep the energy alive. Trust bar manager and bartending veteran Gavin Teverasan to shake up contemporary Japanese-inspired tipples such as a frozen matcha anmitsu whisky milkshake and a crisp and savoury dirty saketini. 

From March 1 to April 30, CMC Alpha members will be able to enjoy 15 per cent off on their food bill.

A lively twist to Italian dining, Bottega di Carna is a beefy love letter to Singapore from world-renowned butcher Dario Cecchini. The stylish interiors are a masterclass in biophilic design, balancing lush greenery with an open kitchen concept to create a dynamic yet elegant setting—perfect for serious business lunches during the day or romantic dinners when night falls. Blending tradition and modern flair, the food—prepared with great care and skill—strays far from just steakhouse classics. Think starters of creamy Puglia burrata, paired with sweet cherry tomatoes, balsamic and fresh basil; and a dainty tartlet, bejewelled with artichoke and goat cheese, finished with a drizzle of honey. 

Of course, a meal isn’t complete without steaks. The signature Stockyard 200-day grain-fed ribeye steak comes expertly grilled, with a nice bark, and succulent in the middle. Otherwise, the lunch deal is priced attractively, especially when one gets to indulge in the green lasagna, made with kale, truffle and taleggio. Need a glass of wine to lift up spirits? Trust the carefully curated Italian wine list, promising a good mix of Old and New World wines to treat.

From March 1 to April 30, CMC Alpha members will be able to enjoy 25 per cent off ala carte for lunch and dinner and 15 per cent off beverages.

Find a dreamy slice of Mexican coastal fantasy at this sexy swim-up bar at Pullman Singapore Hill Street. Translating to “cool” in Spanish, El Chido certainly lives up to its name; its infinity pool and dining area are open to the public—making it a chic hangout spot for romance and conviviality. Savour on a sumptuous range of Mexican fare with starters such as charred elotes brushed with Mexican crema and a dusting of cotija cheese, or the perennial staple of ceviche featuring seasonal fish, enlivened with calamansi marinade, creamy avocados, and black garlic crema. 

The holy trinity made up of tacos, tostadas and nachos are unmissable: nachos come loaded with a generous smattering of classic toppings such as classic minced beef, or shrimp and chorizo; tostadas lavished with breakfast style grilled bacon and quail egg, or Thai style Angus beef flank steak for meat lovers. To appease your sweet tooth, try the Mexican churros and toothsome cinnamon pumpkin empanadas or the three milk-soaked cakes decorated with honeycomb candy crunch and fresh berries.
