Publico InterContinental Singapore Review

Publico opens earlier in the day from Fridays to Sundays. This gave me the opportunity to have a leisurely lunch one Friday. My previous trip to Publico was in the evening. I must say the decor at Publico is beautiful, it just makes you want to relax and chill here for a couple of hours. And because Publico is so isolated from the rest of Singapore popular haunts, making a trip there makes you feel like you are in a different country all together.

During the day you get to experience the lush greenery and at night Publico gives rise to a mysterious and hip vibe. The food gears towards the pricey side with small portions and a little bit too artistic for my taste buds. But surely it is a place to visit at least once, if you are in the search for something new for a meal in a gorgeous setting.

Cocotte in the heart of Bugis with communal style dining

Once in a while you stumble upon great dining finds and all you wanna do to clap really loudly and tell all your friends about it. After many misses I finally found a restaurant worth shouting about and that's Cocotte located at Wunderlust hotel at 2 Dickson road. It is just a stones throw away from Sim Lim. 

The place is decorated industrial chic with metal chairs and wooden table tops. What's great is the large tables and spaciousness about it. A place that you don't have to shout above the din and have a fabulous time catching up with friends. The food is most suited for sharing. While waiting for my friends I enjoyed a cup of earl grey ice tea. Though the food menu did not have many  choices, each item was done to perfection that makes you want to come back again. We had grilled cauliflower and squid which was a winning appetizer and also hormone free roast chicken. For once I was happily eating the chicken without being concern of the amount of hormones injected. And it tasted so fresh and tender you knew it was not frozen stuff. 


Coffee was just about average as the foam was not well executed. Dessert was quite delicious though the sour lemon pie was not as sour as I would have loved it to be. Above all it was a lovely experience and one that I am looking forward to repeat in the near future.

Overeasy One Fullerton - Perfect dining spot with great views inRaffles Place

It was last minute decision to meet when our original plans fell through. And for once, someone suggested dinner at Overeasy at One Fullerton. It's good when you don't have to be the one to use your brain. 

Singapore has been pretty warm, and cloudless and that presented a perfect view of the Marina Bay Sands as I walked to the dinner venue at One Fullerton. Overseasy is definitely spot on with location and that warranted servers being particular about kicking you out of your seat when you have overstayed your time, i.e stopped eating or ordering more food. 

To me, Overeasy is decked up like an American diner, perfect for after work drinks and American fare. Nothing fancy, nothing wow, what was most perfect would be location, location, location. With the farely reasonable pricing, it is no wonder the place is packed, and servers giving you the bill telling you to get out. 

With so many food options in Singapore, it might be while before I return here though I must say if you are in a crave for good meaty juicy burgers, I must have had one of the better burgers here at Overeasy.
