Bagels are taking Singapore by storm these days, with Beigelhaus being one of the few bagelries helming the charge. Founded the former head chef of NOX and Lolla, the Robinson Road cafe makes all their bagels from scratch. They have flavours such as The Rendang ($9), packed with beef stew and achar, as well as The Fake-R ($14.50), with a plant-based patty and mushrooms. 
Aside from the sandwiches, Beigelhaus also does coffee and tea beverages—great to round off breakfast or a quick lunchtime bite.

Those looking for a post-dinner nightcap can head over to Pilcrow in the bustling Boat Quay locale. The cafe serves gorgeous plated desserts as well as cocktail pairings and sourdough pizza.
Kickstart your meal with the Beef Pepperoni ($20++) and BBQ Chicken ($18++) pizzas, both of which feature fluffy sourdough bread and a generous layer of cheese. For desserts, get the Exotique ($16++), a zesty Japanese yuzu curd encased within a coconut mousse. This is paired with Pit of the Plum ($22++), a floral cocktail with plum spirit and grapefruit. Otherwise, there’s the crispy Strawberry & Pistachio Mille Feuille ($18++) paired with the Wild Blossom ($22++), a mellow and easy-to-drink cocktail suitable for light drinkers.

Waa Cow! Is best known for their Wagyu beef bowls, served with indulgent toppings such as truffle sauce or foie gras. They’ve since opened an all-new concept in the form of Waa Cow! Yakiniku, which focuses instead on yakiniku meats, as well as air-flown sashimi platters. Wagyu, sadly, is not the focus here, but you’ll still get delicious cuts of beef that are sourced from Australia and America. Prices start at $6.90++ for 100g of Karubi beef, and go up to $18.90++ for Ox Tongue.
Those who prefer pork and/or chicken will also be happy to know that Waa Cow! Yakiniku serves up said white meats, priced from $4.90++. Dress up your meats with any of the dips sourced from their menu of five different dressings, including a Garlic Butter Teriyaki, and a Ponzu Negi.

For legit Japanese BBQ with a relaxing poolside view, head to Guriru. This alfresco dining concept is helmed by Japanese Chef Teppei Yamashita, the man behind Man Man Unagi and other popular Japanese eateries. 
The restaurant takes inspiration from the hamayaki-style of cooking common in Chef Teppei’s hometown. Everything is grilled to order over binchotan, AKA Japanese charcoal, infusing the meats and seafood with a smoky fragrance. Highlights include the Black Tiger Prawns ($6.50++ each, $25++ for five), bathed in a garlic butter sauce, and the Whole Squid ($16++), which was proper charred and tender during our visit. Don’t leave without trying the sweet and plump Raw Hyogo Oysters ($10++ for three, $19++ for six) from Japan!

Homegrown bakery Whiskdom recently opened two dine-in cafes: North Bridge Road and Orchard Central. If you’re a fan of savoury bagels, visit their North Bridge location, which offers an all-new menu of loaded bagel sandwiches along with their signature chunky cookies and lava brownies.
Get the K-Bae-Gel ($15.90), which stars kimchi chicken, kimchi slaw, and a house-made gochujang aioli, sandwiched between a plain bagel. Otherwise, egg fans can go for the Eggsplode ($12.90), a hefty ‘wich that comes with soft-boiled eggs, mayo, cheese, and furikake. Complete your meal with a Dalgona Coffee ($7.50): an iced latte with salted toffee bits. Seats are limited, so avoid the peak hours if you can!

When Nancy Silverton’s award-winning Osteria Mozza reopened at Hilton Singapore a couple months back, loyal fans were shocked to find that pizzas were no longer on the menu. Here’s some good news: Osteria Mozza’s famed pizzas are back on the menu━but only at lunch.

The wood-fired pizzas still sport the same puffy, airy finish, but recent tweaks to the recipe mean that it’s crisper and holds its form better than before, without compromising on its beloved integrity. There are 10 pizzas on the menu, with classics including Meat Lover ($45++), Funghi Misti ($36++), and Fennel Sausage ($40++), starring house-made sausage and finely-julienned red scallions. A new addition is the BLT ($38++), topped with bacon, guanciale, tomato confit, rocket leaves, and onion cream.

Another bagel cafe that has recently opened is Keen’s Bagelry, which focuses on Japanese and NYC-inspired bagels, with five options on the menu that you can DIY. Pick your favourite bagel flavour, then add on a schmear, as well as customise the type of fillings you’d like.
If you prefer to pick off a menu, they also have options such as the Hashstack ($8.50), which comes with scrambled eggs, mozzarella, and hashbrowns, finished with truffle mayo, or the Loxu ($13) of classic smoked salmon and cream cheese. They tend to sell out quite early, so head down close to their opening time to be able to get yourself a bite.

We were huge fans of 46 Mittsu when we first visited their flagship eatery near Fort Canning MRT Station, but they’ve since relocated to the hip Outram Park enclave, Everton Park. The cafe takes over where Pickle Bakery used to be.
While the address is new, rest assured that their popular sandwiches are still going to be available, including their B.E.C ($14), where fresh ciabatta is stuffed with thick-cut bacon and creamy scrambled eggs. Aside from the usual faves, 46 Mittsu will also have new sandos, including Firebird ($15), a Korean-inspired sandwich with a gochujang fried chicken cutlet middle.
