I’m quite sure that The Halia is already a hit amongst many, so it really needs little introduction. If the great fare isn’t reason enough to visit, then the thought of dining amongst lush greenery at Singapore Botanic Gardens might serve as further enticement.

This season, they’ve got a specially prepared Communal Feast Menu (S$210 for 4 pax) that runs daily from 5pm to 8.30pm where you’ll find a generous spread of 13 different dishes, including a Goats Cheese Mousse, 48Hr Blackmore Wagyu Spare Rib (approx. 600g), and Sticky Toffee Pudding amongst others.

2. Holiday Inn Atrium Restaurant

One of the very best ways to iftar after a day of fasting is of course to proceed to satisfy every craving possible that hit you earlier in the day. With 50% off Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium’s halal-certified Ramadan Buffet for all adults, I’m quite sure you’re going to want in for this one.

Beef rendang

What’s so amazing about this buffet is the range of cuisines such as Korean, Malay, Chinese, Indian, Western, local favourites, and other appetisers available so you’re not just tied to one type of fare. Oh, the endless joys of a buffet.

Kimchi Fried Rice

From the buffet’s Ramadan highlights, find Korean specials like beef bulgogi, spicy chicken stew, kimchi seafood fried rice, and panjeon (pancake), as well as the Malay classics like ayam masak merah, beef rendang, and assam fish.

Pajeon (pancake)

The sauce-heavy components of each dish can only mean one thing—lots of rice and prata to soak up all that goodness, so bear that in mind when you hurriedly breeze through your order slips.

Salmon Sashimi

But always, you can also fall back on the ever-dependable menu items that are part of the regular buffet line, and some of the crowd favourites are salmon sashimi, assam prawns with pineapple, ee fu noodles with mushrooms and chives, and for dessert, mini durian pengat.

Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium’s special halal-certified Ramadan Buffet runs from 12 April to 16 May 2021, so you’ve got more than a month to enjoy the many offerings at Atrium Restaurant—which is plenty of time to go twice or thrice even, I say.

Bulgogi

To reserve, call +65 3138 2530 or email [email protected]. Alternatively, shop for your meal online if you’re having it at home instead.

For their takeaway specials, Atrium Restaurant offers a curated Nasi Ambang Ramadan Platter (S$55) that’s perfect for two people and presents the delicious likes of nasi kuning, mutton rendang, masam manis fish fillet, sotong bakar, and pisang pengat. Have it delivered to your doorstep for S$20 islandwide, or arrange to pick your meal up anytime from 12 April to 16 May 2021.

Plus, if you make your order before 11 April 2021, an early bird discount of 10% awaits, no promo code required.

The collection includes 11 pastries with a mod-sin twist, with some familiar flavours that rise to greet us. I’ve particularly got my eye on the Ondeh Ondeh Croissant (S$4.20) which is a delicious blend of good ol’ gula melaka and pandan, as well as the Milo Dinosaur Croissant (S$4.20) which oozes with chocolatey goodness and is topped with a generous heap of Milo powder. So if you’re already a fan of the indulgent cup of Milo dinosaur, this is surely up your alley. Of course, the classics like the Rendang Chicken Puff (S$3.50), Jumbo Sausage Puff (S$3.80), and Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookie (S$2.50) are all available too.

Make it a set when you indulge in the Wang-derful Treats ‘Grab & Go’ Series promotion of one cookie of choice and one large coffee or tea from S$3.90 or one croissant or puff of choice and one large coffee or tea from S$4.90. The Wang-derful Premium Box (from S$10.50) allows you to choose any four croissants and puffs for the price of just three, while the Wang-derful Cookies Box (S$7.50) lets you do the same, but for cookies.

The ‘Grab & Go’ Series is available at selected Heavenly Wang outlets, including Takashimaya, Plaza Singapura, Changi Airport, and MBFC, amongst others.

6. Chix Hot Chicken

Storefront of Chix Hot Chicken

How does Halal Nashville fried chicken sound for iftar? Some say that Chix Hot Chicken does it best with their fried chicken that’s equal parts tasty and lethal that’ll leave you tearing from both how good and how spicy it is. Helmed by ex-Singapore idol Taufik Batisah, the chicken joint has grown from strength to strength since its conception back in 2018.

Hot wings basket

For the brave one, take the Nashville Hot Chicken Wings ($10.90) by its horns, and if I survived the Insane Hotness level, so can you (with a little help from Meiji milk, perhaps).  They’ve also got a generous burger that’s served in the form of Soul Sliders ($12.90) and is certain to fill you up nicely after a long day’s work.

9. Kampung Amin Dim Sum

There is no wrong time for dim sum. Moreover, if your goods are from Kampung Amin Dim Sum, you know you’re in for a treat.

Storefront of Kampung Amin

Helmed by Chef Stephen, assisted by his two sons, Leon and Troy, Kampung Amin Dim Sum is a pioneer and family venture. Along with a list of familiar steamed baos and fried dumplings, expect an extensive selection of unique specialities that sets Kampung Amin as a cut above the rest.

Loh Mai Gai

Take a walk on the wild side with this riff on the traditional lo mai gai with the Signature Loh Mai Kai (With Purple Rice) (S$5.80). Purple rice is an unconventional choice, but one that works and will surprise you.

If not, make a beeline for their fried goods, such as the Dragon Ball (S$5.80), which are as delicious as they are fun to look at. Otherwise, the Deep Fried Red Snapper Fillet With Special Sauce (S$16.90) is sure to make iftar an affair to remember.

Packed with collagen, the soup was rich and full of flavour, the kind that you will find yourself slurping to your heart’s content unknowingly.

A bowl of Tori Chashu Ramen

Spice lovers should not miss out on their Tori Chashu Ramen With Spicy Soup Base (S$11.90), a bowl that is served with a significantly spicier broth enhanced with Sichuan style chilli oil for that additional kick we Singaporeans enjoy. Sadly this bowl of noodles does not come with the ajitama eggs, so don’t forget to add them when you are placing your orders.

12. Green Chilli Chicken Rice

Most of us have had countless plates of chicken rice in our lifetime, but have you ever had Green Chilli Chicken Rice?

Storefront of Green Chilli Chicken Rice

Tucked in the food enclave of Sims Vista Market & Food Centre is Green Chilli Chicken Rice, a humble stall selling only one dish on the menu, and no prizes for guessing, it’s Green Chilli Chicken Rice (S$4.80).

A plate of chilli chicken rice

Also known as nasi ayam chilli hijau, each serving of this delightful dish comes served with a heap full of basmati rice, alongside some keropok, a portion of chicken thigh topped with the famous green chilli mixture and a dollop of sambal.

Fried for only a minute or two, the marinated chicken was crisp on the surface. Although it was not particularly moist, it was definitely tender enough to enjoy.

A scoop of green chilli chicken

What we particularly enjoyed was the fact that the chicken was very well-seasoned with a sweet-savoury marinade pairing wonderfully with the tangy green chilli. Don’t be fooled by its deceiving looks as this innocent looking mixture sure packed a punch that will make your scalp sweat.

13. Jason Niang Dou Fu

If you’re quick to dismiss it as just food for the sick or elderly, Jason Niang Dou Fu might just change your opinion with some of the most unique varieties offered on our sunny island.

Storefront of Jason Niang Dou Fu

With more than 40 items neatly displayed on the counter shelf, we were spoilt for choice. Not only does the eatery offer must-haves such as tau kua, tau pok, vegetables and different fish cakes, they also have a selection of fried items like chicken cutlet, fried fish, and fried brinjal for diners to choose from.

Top down shot of yong tau foo

For a light yet satisfying meal, the Chee Chong Fun + 5pcs Yong Tau Foo (S$5.50) is not to be missed. The chee chong fun was silky and smooth with a slick layer of oil on its surface. When paired with the sweet sauce and deep-fried onion flakes, every mouthful was fragrant with a subtle sweetness.

Chye Poh Yong Tau Foo

If not, not try their special Chye Poh Sauce + 5pcs Yong Tau Foo (S$6) for a change. Served piping hot in a claypot, the starch-like sauce had bits of dried radish that added a distinct layer of crunch to the thick gravy. For a melange of texture, some of the items were also refried before the chye poh sauce was slathered on resulting in a delightful sweet-salty dish that truly hit the spot.

14. Ashes Burnnit

Storefront of Ashes Burnnit

The reopening of Golden Mile Food Centre means only one thing, more food places for us foodies to choose from. Out of the 15 stalls which we highly recommend, Ashes Burnnit is one that stands out in a completely good way. I mean, it’s not everyday that we find quality burgers prepared using premium ingredients for less than S$10.

Best of Both World Burger

Get your hands dirty with the Best of Both World Burger (S$9/single patty, S$11.50/double patty), a hefty stack that came with a handcrafted beef patty, smoked turkey bacon, parmesan mozzarella cheese, mac & cheese, and a side of fries. Here, the creaminess from the mac & cheese paired faultlessly with the juicy beef patty, resulting in toothsome bites that were seasoned to its utmost precision.

Truffle Mushroom Burger

Truffle lovers will appreciate Ashes Burnnit’s Truffle Mushroom Burger (S$8/single patty, S$10.50/double patty). Slathered in truffle cream sauce, the fragrant and earthy truffle cream complemented the rustic umami savouriness from the sautéed mushrooms.

When eaten with the lightly seasoned medium-rare beef patty, it exuded a sophisticated kind of flavour that seemed too good to be true for its affordable price point.

15. Asam Pedas Claypot Super

Storefront of Asam Pedas Claypot

We all know that dishes served in a claypot always taste better and that’s probably why Asam Pedas Claypot Super earned a spot in our hearts. Located in a coffee shop in Ghim Moh, the eatery is known for their assam pedas (a sour and spicy fish stew dish)—a spicy and tangy treat best eaten in the cold, rainy weather.

Scooping shot of Asam Pedas Fish Head

One of Asam Pedas Claypot Super’s speciality assam claypot dishes is Asam Pedas Rib (Rusuk) (S$15), the restaurant’s take on a meaty version of assam pedas featuring chunks of beef ribs. Enriched with the big, bold flavours of spices and tomatoes, the gravy makes for a hearty sauce best eaten when generously drizzled onto white rice.

Asam Pedas Fish Head

Prefer the real deal? Then opt for the Asam Pedas Fish Head + 2 Steak (Kepala) (S$20). The fish steaks in this claypot of treasure are hefty in size, suitable for a party of up to four diners. The best part of this dish was the fact that the fish soaked up all the tangy and spicy goodness of the gravy, making them a decadent treat even when eaten alone.

If not, a Premium Satay Platter (S$32.90) where you get five sticks of Chicken, Mutton, and Beef satay would do quite nicely too. But my money would be on the massive Tomahawk (S$80 for 960g, S$120 for 1.kg) that’s good for two or one if you’re feeling ambitious.

Plus, you’d be pleased to know that Kucina makes all their pasta and pizza dough from scratch daily. A little brownie point for any Italian Restaurant worth their marinara sauce.

Funghi E Tartufo

Make sure you grab their special Funghi E Tartufo (S$27.90), a unique boat-shaped pizza with mozzarella, creamy mushroom sauce with black truffle pate, topped with scamorza smoked cheese, and drizzled with truffle oil.

The Mini Party A (S$62.06) which is good for five pax, features dishes like the Nyonya Chap Chye, Green Curry Chicken, and Honey Prawn Dumpling. Manna Pot Catering does have quite an extensive menu with tons of options, so see what suits you here.

26. Koh NangKam Southern Thai Restaurant

Well, a trip to Bangkok is not happening anytime soon, but maybe our bellies can take that holiday for us. Koh NangKam Southern Thai Restaurant is where you can find delicious Thai nosh that will satisfy all our wanderlust.

Besides the usual spread of Pandan Chicken (S$8.50 for Small, S$14 for Medium, S$16 for Large) and Tom Yum (S$9 for Small, S$14 for Medium, S$17 for Large), go for their Steamed Sea Bass.

Their sea bass come in several flavours, so you can try one each night if you’d like. I would start with their classic Koh NangKam (S$38) that comes with ginger and plum that’s herbaceous to a fault. Then, for the adventurous, try the Keng-Som Steamed (S$38) where it comes blanketed with a spicy turmeric gravy that is a favourite amongst Southern Thais. Whichever you pick, it’s going to be a good iftar, alright.

27. Wakuwaku Yakiniku

Meat on a barbecue

This has to be the ultimate treat yo’self meal. When the meats are from Wakuwaku Yakiniku, only good things await. As Singapore’s first halal yakiniku restaurant, Wakuwaku made quite the splash when it opened. Rightly so, since it is helmed by the same guys behind the iconic FatPapas and Fatboy’s The Burger Bar—talk about culinary royalty.

Premium Beef Platter

Indulge in Premium Beef Platter – 700g (S$108), where it comes with seven of the Chef’s choice of premium cuts with some specials thrown in. Plus, you’ll get a cube of beef tallow to oil your grill; I’m salivating just thinking about it.

For those that prefer to have iftar at home, don’t worry; Wakuwaku Yakiniku’s got you covered. You can have their Platter Basic Set- 400g (S$75) along with a Charcoal Grill Set (S$20) delivered right to your doorstep. Have a look at what little luxuries you can have delivered from Wakuwaku Yakiniku here.

28. Daya Izakaya

I have to say, it’s a relief to finally have a reliable Japanese restaurant right around the corner from home. Not only is Daya Izakaya the newest baby to the string of eateries along Jalan Kayu, but it also happens to be Singapore’s only halal izakaya. Call me intrigued.

Dig into a hearty bowl of Truffles Chirashi Don + Miso Soup (S$22) that’s sure to nourish and replenish your energy (and liquids) after a whole day of fasting. On the side, help yourself to Salmon Sashimi (S$6 for three pieces) or a Crab Cheese Maki (S$12).

And since it’s an izakaya, you can’t leave without tasting a few of their skewers, such as Negima (Chicken & Leek) (S$3 per skewer), Tori Hatsu (Chicken Heart) (S$2.50 per skewer), and Kamo (Marinated Duck Meat) (S$4). Quench that thirst with an array of drinks such as Yuzu Soda (S$8) and Fuwatto Melon Cream Soda (S$4).

29. Restaurant Aisyah

Storefront of Restaurant Aisyah

My initial reticence with Restaurant Aisyah quickly dissolved when I had the first bite of their Meat Dumplings in Spicy Sauce (S$12.80). Sufficient for about three people to share, the dumplings at Restaurant Aisyah are made fresh daily, and they even have a lady dedicated to working her nimble fingers to create these mini hand grenades of savoury meat.

Braised Mutton Noodles

I was allured by the Braised Mutton Noodles (S$10.80/S$13.80), with its reliable, springy noodles and the easy-tear mutton chops that required only slight nimble work with a pair of chopsticks. Alternatively, their Braised Beef Shank Noodle in Clear Soup (S$10.80/S$13.80) presents the same faultless tender flesh, evident of hours of laborious, and more importantly, noble work.

It opened to much fanfare, and to this today, I vouch for its revered reputation.

30. House of Lemang

Lemang Set

I uncovered this gem during ‘Circuit Breaker’ and I cannot emphasise how nostalgic this home-delivered meal is. House of Lemang offers its high-quality lemang, a roll of glutinous rice, coconut milk, and salt, cooked in a bamboo stick with banana leaves. The ones at House of Lemang are cooked for five hours, and the glutinous rice is washed and soaked before being grilled.

Scoop of Lemang

Come 1 April 2021, they are opening pre-order slots for this Ramadhan period where you can enjoy Lemang Set (one pax) (S$12) that includes a cut of lemang (five pieces), 150g of rendang, 50g of serunding, and 150g of sambal goreng. These sets can go up to accommodating four pax (S$44) as well. There’s also a Nasi Empit Set (one pax) (S$10) that comes with nasi empit, 150g of rendang, 50g of serunding, as well as 150g of sambal goreng.

Need some sweets to close the meal? They offer Kueh Lopes at S$1 per piece and Kek Kukus at S$18 for 14”x14”. It was so easy to fall head over heels for these, and I’m confident you’ll feel the same. For full details on how to order, head to their Instagram account.

31. All Things Delicious

Storefront of All Things Delicious

Having walked by All Things Delicious numerous times, I was really anticipating a satisfying meal the moment I had a chance to dine-in. Riding the health wave of late, the wholesome cafe is one of the few halal health-forward cafes, priding themselves in refreshing drinks such as Raspberry Mint (S$7.60) that is satisfying right down to the last drop. I reckon I could gulp this down on an empty stomach in the morning, to help me kick-start my day and feel energised.

Pumpkin On Sourdough

How about switching up your avo-on-toast game with Pumpkin On Sourdough (S$12.90 for single toast, S$19.90 for double toast)? With house-made za’atar, feta, pomegranate, and soft-yolk boiled egg, this toast fits the double duties of a snack as well as a complete meal.

This Ramadhan 2021, they have a Hari Raya Shop that offers Hari Raya Hampers, catering, a cookie collection, and even cakes (and plenty more!). So, in addition to breaking your fast with their wholesome bites, why not give the gift of nourishment to a fellow Muslim during this fasting period?

32. IndoBowl

Storefront of Indobowl

Novelty dining concepts are abundant on our sunny island, and one of those to hit our shores just before the pandemic is IndoBowl. Basing their menu on Indonesia’s much-loved instant noodle brand, Indomie, their creations reach creative peaks such as Indomie Mumbo Jumbo (S$49.90). Consisting of a giant platter, it serves three to four diners and delivers four to five packets of IndoMie along with ribeye, lamb chop, lamb bakar, and beef satay.

Indomie Ayam Bakar

There are also solo servings like the Indomie Ayam Bakar (S$9.90) that come with sambal balado, a fiery number that’ll get your taste buds tingling with spiciness and flavour. Treat yourself with the Ropang Coklat Keju (S$3.90), which directly translates to ‘peanut butter chocolate’ and arrives at the table as a baked bread topped off with condensed milk, mozzarella cheese, and a final generous drizzle of melted Hershey’s chocolate.

What a scrumptious way to end the day.

33. Tenderbest Makcik Market

Storefront of Tenderbest Makcik Market 1

Reliable for their fried chicken—I’m definitely a fan—Tenderbest Makcik Market’s target audience is sure to enjoy its youthful and vibrant outfit at Bedok Point. Wind down after a long day of fasting and work, with their Meatloaf Supreme (S$8.90), which has ayam meatloaf (similar to luncheon meat) and sweet potatoes done tempura-style.

Cross section of okonomiya prata

Thereafter, delight in a shareable Okonomiya Bacon Prata (S$4.90) laden with bonito flakes, fresh cabbage, tako sauce, and mayonnaise. Throw in a few turkey bacon strips and you’ve got yourself a decent meal. Feeling hungrier? The Mala Ayam Roti John (S$8.50) is a chonky contender that’s equal parts creamy and spicy.

If you’ve got a sweet tooth like me, the Fried Chicken Ais Kreme Cup (S$4.90) will delight those who naughtily love to dip their fries in soft serve. There’s something for everyone here at this market.
