The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Craftsmen Specialty Coffee
-
Rank 1. Odette
Modern French
A paper installation by artist Dawn Ng hangs from the ceiling of this three-Michelin-star modern French restaurant inside the National Gallery, which means dinner arrives with a side of actual museum energy. Chef Julien Royer grew up on a farm and cooks like it still matters, sourcing from small producers across Asia and Europe. The menu sits on a French spine with Asian inflections folded quietly through it. It holds a spot on The World's 50 Best Restaurants.

Rank 5. Zén
Neo-Nordic New American
Björn Frantzén's Singapore shophouse holds three Michelin stars and a tasting menu that moves you floor by floor, aperitif and amuse-bouche downstairs, the full neo-Nordic progression upstairs. The kitchen leans on seafood and Japanese ideas without quite belonging to either, and the non-alcoholic pairings are eccentric in a way that somehow makes you trust them more. Worth knowing the restaurant is temporarily closed before you plan around it.
-
Rank 6. Born
Modern Chinese
A former rickshaw depot at a Chinatown crossroads, the triangular building alone stops traffic before you step inside. Born is a fine dining restaurant where glass ceilings and a suspended paper sculpture set the tone for chef Zor Tan's multi-course menu: Modern Chinese cooking shaped by French technique, with each course tied to a principle like Memory or Legacy. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants.

A cereal box arrives at the table and turns out to be dessert, which tells you most of what you need to know about Labyrinth. This Michelin-starred fine dining room takes hawker-stall nostalgia, bak kut teh and all, and rebuilds it into a theatrical set menu where the props are part of the point. The room runs dark and spare, warmed by wood and Singaporean art. It holds a spot on both Asia's and the World's 50 Best lists.

Rank 31. Seroja
Malaysian
The name comes from the Malay word for lotus flower and the street where the chef grew up, which sets the tone for what follows. Seroja is a 24-seat fine dining restaurant built around a multi-course menu of Malay Archipelago cooking, with counter seats that put the kitchen on full display. Mangrove wood-charred scallops with laksa leaf sauce are the signature. It holds a Michelin star and sits on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list.
-
Rank 32. Nae:Um
Contemporary Korean
Each seasonal tasting menu at this fine dining restaurant arrives framed as an "episode," with past chapters organized around Jeju Island, a sunset walk along the Han River, and a backyard barbecue. Chef Louis Han reinterprets Korean nostalgic cooking through Western technique, so cold buckwheat noodles become haute cuisine and a buttery sauce quietly channels a spicy fish stew. It landed on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list, and the intimate shophouse room, all cream and warm light, keeps the focus on the plates.

Rank 58. Les Amis
French
White-gloved service and a dedicated cheese cart signal exactly what kind of evening you're in for at this French fine dining institution tucked into Shaw Centre. Chef Sébastien Lepinoy, who spent nearly two decades with Joël Robuchon before landing here, runs a kitchen that holds three Michelin stars, a Forbes Five Star, and a spot on Asia's 50 Best list. The room is formal but never stiff, the kind of place where the truffle server knows more about truffles than you ever will.

A Neapolitan-style pizza bar in the Jiak Chuan Road dining strip, where the dough is long-fermented, the crust rises high, and the aperitivo list is taken as seriously as the pies. Negronis and Americanos anchor the drinks, and the room, dark-toned and minimal, fills quickly with people who know to book ahead. It ranks on the 50 Top Pizza World list, with a 2025 One to Watch special award to go with it.
