Dining in the CBD can be a bit of a pickle, especially when most of your options cost an arm and a leg. If you’re constantly on the lookout for dining deals near Tanjong Pagar, then we’ve got you covered with our list of Frasers Tower food places to check out━we’ve included 1-for-1, and $1 dining deals that you can cop with the Frasers Experience (FRx) app from now till 30 September 2023!
Oishii Bar, as its name suggests, is the restaurant to put on your list if you’re looking for tasty Japanese fare. Chef Shigenerai Sato, who’s spent more than 15 years as a chef, including stints at reputable omakase restaurants, heads the kitchen here.
You can’t go wrong with his Roast Beef ($22++) bowl, where slices of pink roast beef are served with Wafu dressing on Japanese pearl rice.
Try his Kakiage Don ($18++), a lunchtime special that’s fried with Chef Sato’s secret tempura batter, and served on a bed of rice. Alternatively, there’s Oden ($22++), which comes with seven ingredients simmered for hours in a clear dashi broth. If you’ve got a favourite ingredient, get it for just $2++ a piece.
If you’ve got the FRx app, you’ll be entitled to redeem a 1-for-1 Dinner Set here from Mondays to Saturdays! Choose from their donburi set menu, including their dinner special, Kakiage Soba. This promotion excludes the Vegetable Kakiage Don, Oyakodon, and lunch special. Do note that while they’re open all day, lunch runs from 11:30am to 2:30pm, and dinner service starts at 5:30pm.

Coffee lovers, you’ll want to put 22 Grams Cafe on your radar if you haven’t already. The little kiosk in the lobby of Frasers Tower was started by a group of professional baristas, including one who used to work with %Arabica.
Even the name of the cafe, 22 Grams, is inspired by the precise amount of beans they use in each pour.
FRx members can enjoy selected special drinks off the 22 Grams menu at just $1! These include their popular Caffe Latte, Flat White, Cappuccino, Long Black and more. One of their best-selling brews is the Iced Latte ($7), though the Flat White ($6/$7) is equally popular. Otherwise, 22 Grams’ Long Black ($5) packs a real punch; alternatively, the Peru Dark Chocolate ($5.50) is one of their non-caffeinated options that we loved for its malty, chocolatey notes.
Unit number: #01-K1
