LUCCA’S TRATTORIA
Tuscan cuisine is the focus here at Lucca’s, set off perfectly by the restaurant’s warm ambience and rustic charm.

BRACI
With a name meaning “embers” in Italian, Braci’s signature dishes are prepared using a charcoal oven and a shichirin (small charcoal grill). The degustation menus are studded with modern-luxe Italian standouts like Verona celery root aged in Wagyu fat and a decadent 32-egg-yolk tagliolini. Its cooking methods also coax rich flavours and succulent textures out of meat – whether it’s smoked venison, Maimoa lamb or Miyazaki Wagyu A5. It’s no wonder this restaurant in Boat Quay has garnered several accolades, including a coveted Michelin star.

This casual Italian eatery on Hongkong Street does hearty staples well.

Toppings include authentic regional goodies like San Marzano heirloom tomatoes, Tuscan pecorino cheese and fig vincotto. Try the version with pancetta, spicy broccolini, pumpkin and smoked mozzarella, or opt for a main dish of grilled angus beef tagliata with arugula and parmigiano salad.

RIVIERA
With waterfront Marina Bay views, this modern fine-dining restaurant at One Fullerton takes diners on a gastronomic journey through the Mediterranean region – dishes conjure the sun-drenched coasts of Spain, Morocco, Italy and France.
