Sluviche is one of the newest restaurants to grace the ever trendy Keong Saik Rd. It’s hidden away on the second level of a shophouse so you won’t see it from the street. But you should go and seek it out. We were seriously impressed with the fresh ceviche here! Scallop ceviche ($25) of juicy sweet scallops, chilli and pops of ikura was a favourite, then try the Tuna ($23) with avocado cream and sesame seeds, next the Shrimp ($22) fat red prawns cut with sherry vinegar and pepped up with tiny cubes of celery. All ceviches come with sourdough bread unusually – something a little heavier to line your stomach with for the dangerously good slushies of Pisco Sour ($15) or Pisco Punch with Pisco, pineapple and lime. Grab your girlfriends, and go now!

Superfudo is crashing in on the healthy bowl brigade with their chilled dine-in café set up, wedged in Lorong Liput in Holland Village – a small road making a bit of a name for itself on the fitness and health scene with Freedom Yoga, Ritual Gym, Acai Bowl and now Superfudo all hailing a healthier lifestyle. Superfudo offers a wide choice of pre-cooked sous-vide meats from steak to lamb as well as prawns, perch or salmon all sealed in their BPA free vacuum bags. Choose your carb from Japanese sweet potato to multi grain rice, your veggies from spinach, cauliflower and mushrooms to kimchi, plus toppings of nuts, seeds and onsen egg among others. Prices are reasonable at $11 for a Veg Lite dish (1 base, 3 veg and 2 toppings) all the way up to the priciest option the Protein Rich ($21) of 1 base, 2 meat, 2 veg and 2 toppings. Espresso is currently free (cray-cray right?) or plump for a green tea latte ($6).

Carrotsticks & Cravings cafe at Loewen Gardens is the healthy café we have all been wishing for. One that serves up almond milk flat whites and turmeric lattes without batting their eyelids. Their healthy, refined sugar-free dishes are a hit, from Smashed Avo, Feta and Dukkah on sourdough toast ($16) to Acai Bowls ($14) and the highly Instagrammable Ricotta and Fig on Sourdough with Chai Granola ($17). Plus there’s lots of gluten free and dairy free dishes, a cute kids’ menu and a trampoline on site too. Read more about Carrotsticks & Cravings here.

Sophisticated hotel restaurant Racines serves a split menu of French classic dishes and Chinese cuisine cooked by two separarate teams of chefs in the smart kitchen on show at the back. From the French side, dishes stay to their French roots (hence the name; Racines meaning roots) with signatures of Grenouille –  Frog Legs served with pink garlic, parsley, and wild mushroom emulsion; or the highly recommended rich umami flavours of the Traditional Lobster Bisque with Coral Oil, Basil Ravioli and Micro Cress. The Chinese kitchen serves up their rendition of frogs legs – Stir-Fried Spicy Szechuan Style Frog Legs (a massive portion good for 2 at $58) or other classics like Sweet & Sour Kurobuta Pork, Singapore Style Sri Lankan Black Pepper Crab and Nyonya Style Stir-Fried Calamari. Desserts swing from French (Mousse Au Chocolat) to Asian (Racines’ Mango Sticky Rice). Service is of note and they do a three-course executive express lunch at $38 (including coffee/tea) for the suited and booted.

Savourworld is the new 60,000 sq. ft. enclave of restaurants and bars at Science Park opposite NUH. If you are in the neighbourhood weekdays pop in for lunch at one of the many food spots from Modus offering quinoa bowls, to Tokyo Joe offering rice bowls. Spruce is there with Tex-Mex, Wildfire for burgers, Chinese Noodle Bar by Blue Lotus for noodles, Garçons Nosh for affordable French cuisine and Ottoman Kebab & Grill for Middle eastern fare, plus Licktionary for ice-creams – all washed down with craft beers from The Good Beer Company and wines from Blotto Bottles.
