The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Magpie
-
Rank 1. Zén
European Contemporary
Björn Frantzén's three-Michelin-star tasting menu restaurant occupies a beautifully restored shophouse, and it earns every star. You start with drinks and snacks downstairs, then head up for eight neo-Nordic courses that quietly absorb Japanese technique along the way. The crowd is dressed up, unhurried, and the kind of people who booked weeks out. The non-alcoholic pairing sounds like a dare but somehow lands every time.

Rank 8. Born
Modern Chinese
Born is a fine-dining destination doing something genuinely interesting: a multi-course tasting menu that maps Chinese and Asian flavours onto classical French technique, built around a loose philosophy of life's journey. The building helps, an old colonial-era rickshaw depot in Chinatown with soaring glass ceilings and a suspended paper sculpture that makes the room feel like a gallery. It's on Asia's 50 Best list, so dress up and bring someone you want to impress.

Rank 20. Odette
Modern French
Odette sits inside the National Gallery and honestly feels like part of the collection, with a ceiling installation that earns its own second glance. It's a fine dining room where the chef's modern French cooking quietly pulls in Asian ingredients without making a big deal of it. The room draws the kind of crowd that planned this dinner weeks ago and dressed accordingly. It holds a spot on Asia's 50 Best list, and the food makes that feel earned rather than inherited.

Rank 24. Les Amis
French
Fine dining French in Singapore that's been around forever and still earns its place on Asia's 50 Best list. The kitchen has deep Joël Robuchon roots, and it shows in the kind of classical technique that never feels dusty. White-gloved service, serious cheese and truffle trolleys, and a room full of people who dressed for the occasion. It's a special-occasion place in the best sense, not stuffy, just genuinely polished.

Rank 27. Nae:Um
Contemporary Korean
Fine dining that earns its quiet confidence, Nae:um serves a seasonal tasting menu that reframes Korean nostalgia through a contemporary lens. The intimate shopfront room draws couples and serious food people who sit very still so they don't miss anything. Each course is built around a narrative theme, Korean culture translated into something you eat rather than read about. It's on Asia's 50 Best list, and you'll understand why by the third course.

Innovative
If you want to understand what Singaporean food can become in the right hands, this is the place. Labyrinth is a set-menu fine dining spot that takes the hawker classics you grew up eating and rebuilds them into something quietly mind-bending, with interactive presentation that's theatrical without being annoying. It's earned a spot on Asia's 50 Best, and the room draws food-serious regulars who know not to expect the same meal twice.
