1. Una Una


una-una-unajyu-establishment

Una Una needs no introduction—it’s long been hailed as the wallet-friendly answer to the Michelin-approved Man Man Unagi. If you’ve ever wanted to enjoy Japanese eel without forking out the big bucks, swing by their restaurant at Bugis+. Prices here start from an ultra-affordable $9.80++ for the small portion of their signature Unajyu set, making it one of the cheapest places in Singapore to get your grilled Japanese eel fix. 

Despite the lower price point, Una Una doesn’t skimp on flavour—the eel is grilled over charcoal for that unmistakable smokiness, then glazed with a sweet-savoury tare sauce that’ll have you scooping up every last grain of rice.

Look no further than Eleven Finger (Eu Kee) Scissors Curry Rice for a hearty plate of curry rice along Queen Street! There’s an interesting story behind the name of this stall.

After the closure of Golden Mile Complex, the popular BeerThai House Restaurant opened a new outlet at the nearby City Gate.

The hands behind this old-school eatery are tirelessly working during lunch hours, chopping down slab after slab of braised pork belly with methodical precision. A bowl of Pig’s Organ Soup here costs $5, which you can pair with a serving of various meats such as Lor Bak from $6. This meal is sure to fill you up.

12. New Rong Liang Ge

New Rong Liang Ge not only stands as one of Singapore’s best spots for sio bak, but also one of the most affordable as well. A plate of Char Siew Rice only sets you back $3.50 here, while their Char Siew & Roasted Pork Rice is priced at $4. If these cheap dishes don’t give your dollar a good stretch, their selection of double-boiled soups would surely do the trick. Priced as low as $3, these warm bowls of soup taste best on a rainy day.

13. PerghChicks


perghchicks-flatlay

Previously a pasar malam stall, PerghChicks has since opened a permanent store at Bali Lane. This restaurant specialises in ayam percik, which is a rare find in Singapore. Their Nasi Kukus Volcano (from $12.50+) is great for those with a penchant for spice. This dish features a turmeric-infused chicken covered in a dense gravy, and a side of spicy sambal. Another must-try is their Signature Percik Wings Box Ala-Carte ($22+ for six pieces), which features a special house-made percik sauce that includes coconut cream, cashew nuts and more.

Chin Chin Eating House is one of the oldest restaurants in Singapore. Here, they specialise in Hainanese chicken rice. Their Chicken Rice for 1 pax set costs $6 and comes with your preferred chicken parts and a warm bowl of chicken broth. Their kampong chicken meat is known for being tender and juicy, so we recommend getting their roasted Half Chicken ($14) or Whole Chicken ($28) to share with your family or friends.

18. Husk Nasi Lemak


husk-nasi-lemak-flatlay

Husk Nasi Lemak at Bugis Cube takes the coconut rice dish to a whole new level with their modern and fusion interpretation of the typical nasi lemak elements. The highlight of their Signature Chicken Cutlet Set ($10.80) is its crispy chicken cutlet, which features a juicy slab of thigh meat coated in a batter perfected in Taiwan. That same batter is used as a garnish to add more crunch. Enjoy its ajitsuke tamago with their house-made sambal for a sweet and spicy kick. If you like your chicken grilled instead, opt for the Grilled Chicken Set ($10.80), which is inspired by Thailand’s grilled pork skewers. Its chicken thigh is beautifully caramelised, thanks to the sweet marinade.

19. Box n Sticks


box-n-sticks-spicy-aburi-seafood-maki-establishment

Nestled on a quiet stretch in Kampong Glam, Box n Sticks has become a preferred night haunt for many with their chill vibes and cosy ambience. If that isn’t reason enough to visit this cosy izakaya for a relaxing post-work tipple, most of their dishes also taste superb with a pint of beer.

Pair their beer or sake with their signature Spicy Aburi Seafood Maki ($18.90+), which features a sushi roll crammed with torched salmon, prawn tempura, and crabstick. A dash of house-made chilli sauce caps off this kaleidoscopic treat, cutting through the richness of the seafood and the fizziness of the beer with its tangy bite.

Located in a heritage shophouse along Kandahar Street is Bumbu Restaurant, a unique eatery that serves Thai-Indo Peranakan fusion. Here, you not only get to enjoy good food but also soak in their Baba-style antiques! On the menu, they’re known for their Ayam Buah Keluak ($17.90++), which comes with two buah keluak nuts and chicken in a rich and nutty sauce. For something milder, get their popular Thai Green Curry Chicken ($14.90++), a non-spicy coconut curry. Otherwise, try their bestselling Coffee Chicken ($15.90++), where you get tender chicken thigh in a sweet coffee sauce.

21. Mahmud’s Tandoor


mahmud's-tandoor-tandoori-burger-establishment

Founded by an Indian-Pakistani couple, Mahmud’s Tandoor is well-loved for their tandoori chicken burgers. Their Crispydoori Burger ($14.40) is a must-try; you get a slab of deep-fried chicken thigh meat that’s evenly marinated with tandoori spices and doused in harissa mayonnaise, and a slice of cheese packed between two brioche buns. Alternatively, get their OG Tandoori Burger ($14.40) if you prefer tender chicken thigh meat that’s baked instead of fried. We also recommend getting their thickcut Masala Fries (from $4.80) to go with your burgers.

pancake-&-waffle-place-grilled-tiger-prawn-cross-section

Pancake fans will love Pancake & Waffle Place, where you get s’mores waffles and pancakes served with smoked salmon and sour cream. From their pancake selection, Grilled Tiger Prawn ($21.90++) is a popular choice among customers. Three thick pancakes are topped with tiger prawns, then doused in a creamy and mildly spicy sauce. If you’re a waffle to pancake kinda foodie, give their Spicy Crisp Chicken Waffle ($18.90++) a shot. You get buttery waffles topped with a crispy boneless chicken leg drenched in ranch dressing, sriracha chili, and maple syrup, served with a side of caesar salad.

23. Mashi no Mashi


mashi-no-mashi-flatlay

Bugis is home to lots of ramen places, but they’re not quite like Mashi No Mashi, a famous chain with a unique Ultra Wagyu Ramen ($22++). This eatery replaces pork bones that are usually used to make ramen broth with Wagyu beef bones, thereby creating a beef-flavoured “tonkotsu” broth with a distinct meaty aroma. We got tender pieces of beef chashu too, which was the highlight of the bowl due to the way the meat melts in your mouth.

24. Beyond the Dough

For something more atas, head to Beyond the Dough for their artisanal pizza. The chef-owner, Mr Eddie Murakami, has experience working in Pizza Strada and Pizza Studio Tamaki, both of which are highly respected pizza institutions in Japan. Murakami makes Tokyo-style Neapolitan pizza, where the crust is thinner and the firm elasticity of the pizza dough is retained. When we visited, we tried their prawn noodle-inspired Singapore Rampage ($39+) and liked its spicy, umami-packed flavour a lot.

25. Overrice


overrice-grilled-chicken-pita-pocket-cross-section

Another halal-friendly eatery on this list, Overrice serves Mediterranean-style rice bowls and pita pockets. The Grain-Fed Beef Bowl ($15) is a crowd favourite here, with fragrant basmati rice served with slow-cooked pulled beef and fresh vegetables. The bowl is doused in a “secret white sauce”, which reminds us of a blend of Greek yoghurt and mayonnaise. For a lighter option, taste the Grilled Chicken Pita Pocket ($11), which features chicken and shredded lettuce in a toasted pita. Portions here are generous, as pita bread is also offered as an accompaniment to the rice bowls.

26. Huevos

Known for serving tasty and wallet-friendly Mexican food in Bugis, Huevos is the place to sort out your cravings. For those going in a group, we recommend their Loaded Nachos ($21++), a beautiful mess of chicken, guacamole, cheese, pickled jalapenos, and onions. To go with your nachos, get their Chipotle Chicken Quesadillas ($17++) or Al Pastor Pork Quesadillas ($17++). You can pay an additional $3++ for an extra blanket of cheese to make your quesadillas even more moreish and flavourful.

27. Smashed

ICYMI: Smash burgers have become one of the trendiest foods in London recently, so Smashed opened their doors near Haji Lane to create their own version here in Singapore. There are only three burgers on the menu: Classic Smashed (from $11.90), House Smashed (from $11.90), and Spicy Smashed (from $11.90). If it’s your first visit, we recommend starting with the House Smashed, featuring a house-made sauce that pairs well with the savouriness of the melted cheese. For those who can handle spice, get the Spicy Smashed instead; the Sambal Balado Sauce in this burger was incredibly delicious!

30. Belle-ville Pancake Cafe


belle-ville-pancake-cafe-strawberry-&-mix-berry-pancake-establishment

Belle-ville Pancake Cafe is my top pick for a satisfying and IG-worthy tower of souffle pancakes. One of their popular items is Matcha Red Bean Pancake ($13.20++ for four, $18.20++ for eight), which is a glorious combination of matcha, red bean, and blackberries. To get that extra splash of colour and a dose of fruity sweetness, fork out that extra dollar and treat yourself to the Strawberry & Mix Berry Pancake ($12.90++ for two, $16.40++ for four) instead.

June Bakery’s Orh Nee Tart ($1.60) is elusive. The bakery is only open five days a week, and is often sold out by 1pm. But if you manage to get your hands on one of their tarts, you will understand why they’re so popular. The tart is filled end-to-end with smooth yam paste that’s not overly sweet, while their crust of choice is a savoury and buttery shortcrust. These no-frill tarts are usually snapped up in the dozens by nearby office workers, so visit the bakery early to avoid disappointment! Pro tip: Place an order with the shop owners in advance to secure a box of these delights!
