Have a dinner party in someone’s home with our list of secret Supper Clubs in Singapore!

Sure, anyone can book dinner at a fancy restaurant; there are always plenty of new restaurants opening every month in Singapore. But where can you go for a different dining experience? These secret supper clubs all offer something extra special.

Some of these supper clubs offer theatrics and performance, others promise a low-key, family-style dinner at the chef’s home. From Peranakan feasts, to hard-to-find Bengali cuisine, classic Cantonese to botanical adventures — seemingly anything is possible. Your host may be a famous violinist, or the owner of an urban farm! Go with a group and book all the spots out, or turn up with your date (who knows who you’ll meet?) and mingle with other guests, including hosts who always have plenty of stories to tell! After all, perhaps it’s the people and not necessarily just the food that makes dining at a supper club such a memorable experience.

Lucky House Private Kitchen

Cuisine: Traditional Cantonese

The Set Up: Lucky House Private Kitchen specializes in Cantonese dishes made the traditional way – whether that be using charcoal to boil soups or grinding spices by hand. This supper club takes place in the chef’s retro landed home complete with his own organic vegetable garden that boasts red ladyfingers and mustard greens amongst other veggies. There are two rooms (seating 18 and 10) and guests are encouraged to take part if they want – using the stone mill or helping cutting up the veg. Dishes are served omakase style and are up to the chef but the signature roast duck and concubine chicken will always be on the menu. Other favourites include the Crayfish Omelette, Steam Garoupa and 10hr boiled soup.

Relish Dining

Bombay Howrah Dining Car

Cuisine: Regional Indian Cuisine
Corkage: Free
Cost: (CURRENTLY NOT TAKING BOOKINGS)
The Set Up: Started by a former MasterChef Asia contestant, Priya and her husband, Anniruddha welcome guests into their quaint home for a wonderful and reasonably priced one-of-a-kind Indian dining experience. There are 6 individually plated dishes picked from an ever-changing menu. The dishes are inspired from the hosts’ respective hometowns in India and the menu varies seasonally. Try the Alphonso mango-themed menu during Indian Mango season! Dishes are very creative and beautifully presented (often a challenge with Indian cuisine). True blue Indian food fans or those curious to go beyond the typical restaurant favourites should seek out the Bengali dishes (and desserts), as this regional cuisine is hard to come by (outside of Bengal and Bengali homes), and the delicately flavoured seafood dishes and abundant use of mustard oil and mustard seeds is a delectable treat. Book all 8 slots for your entire group or you could have a fun night mingling with other guests including the super-friendly hosts.
