City Hall food guide


City Hall MRT Station is right smack in the middle of the East-West Line and North-South Line, making it one of the more convenient places to meet up with friends. Peppered with malls, there is no shortage of City Hall food places to choose from. Look below for our round-up of food gems to check out when in the area.


1. Alice Boulangerie


Alice-Boulangerie-bakery-oven

Popular cafe Alice Boulangerie has a second branch at Raffles City, and what sets this outlet apart from the OG is the addition of Fine Crumbs Bakery. There are more than 15 buns available every day, and some of our favourites are the Black Sesame Peanut Mochi Bun ($4.80++), which nods to muah chee, Matcha Nama Bun ($6.50++), and Pistachio Cream Bun ($6.80++)

If you’re dining with friends or colleagues, we recommend starting with the incredibly flavourful Wagyu Beef Tartare ($26++), followed by the stunning Aqua Pazza ($39++), which features seared smoked black cod paired with a tangy tomato sauce, and finished with crisp fish strips.

2. Broth & Beyond


Broth-And-Beyond-Flatlay

Many think that CHIJMES only houses fancy restaurants, but that’s not true. Broth & Beyond is a value-for-money hotpot spot offering fresh, locally sourced ingredients from Yunnan. Their Flavour Discovery Set is priced at $29.90++ per person, which includes one broth flavour, a portion of meat, a veggie basket, a portion of rice or la mian, and access to the Market Table, which is essentially a huge condiment and dessert station. If you can’t decide which broth to get, consider the Signature Black Truffle & Eight-Mushroom Broth that’s simmered for eight hours using chicken fat and Yunnan mushrooms to achieve a rich, robust flavour.

Another CHIJMES gem is Daily Beer, a popular Korean fried chicken restaurant that’s perfect for your chimaek (chicken and beer) night. You can’t go wrong with the classic Angry Bird (from $28++), but if you want to take it up a notch, the Angry Bird Crunch (from $30++), seasoned with corn flakes and garlic, is a better choice.You must get their craft beers to pair with your chicken; there are 10 beer flavours on the menu, such as K-Ginseng Lager ($13++), Busan Hazelnut Porter ($15++), and the outlet-exclusive Chijmes Hazy IPA ($15++)

homm-thai-tea-avalanche-bingsu5

If you’ve been to Melbourne, you would have heard of Homm Dessert, a famous Thai dessert cafe that specialises in bingsu. The cafe is known for their Thai Tea Avalanche Bingsu ($19.80++), starring Thai milk tea snow topped with whipped cheese, creamy Thai tea sauce, freshly baked crumble, grass jelly, and finally, a scoop of Thai tea gelato.

5. Dough


dough - flatlay

Dough is a bakery-cafe that’s been around for some time at CHIJMES, and after trying their food and drinks, it’s easy to see why it’s so popular. We first had the Hummus & Guacamole ($14++), featuring a slice of garlic focaccia with dragonfruit hummus, guacamole, pistachio, honey, and a drizzle of olive oil. This tasted best with a glass of Iced White ($6++), but if you’re not a fan of coffee, get their White Peach Sencha ($8++) cold brew tea instead. 

The next time we visit, the crowd-favourite Rosti with Roasted Pumpkin ($22++) will surely be on our must-get list: house-made rosti with sour cream, roasted pumpkin, scrambled eggs, baby spinach, and roasted herb tomato.

We recommend their Lunch Set ($48++ per person), which includes bread, snacks, a starter, a main dish, and even a dessert.

The opening of Casa Vostra at Raffles City in 2024 was the talk of the town—there was a snaking long queue for weeks, with diners eager to try the Italian restaurant’s handmade pasta and pizza. Here, the pizzas are grouped into categories of Newpolitan Red, Newpolitan White, and Doublecrunch.

The box contains fragrant rice cooked with no less than 20 ingredients, such as meat slices, pumpkin, mushrooms, corn, and lotus root—imparting heaps of flavour and aroma.

Pre-game on Modern Singapore bar grub the likes of Truffle Carbonara “Suan Pan Zi” ($26++), featuring house-made yam abacus seed, shimeji mushroom, and cream sauce.
