We hope you’re hungry this week!

After all the grub, dig into fruit tarts at Tarte by Cheryl Koh, and wash it down with T2 Tea’s new range of wellness teas.
A Taste of India at Table Restaurant & Bar
Back by popular demand, Table Restaurant & Bar re-introduces eight of its most popular street food dishes inspired by India, hailing from the cities of Mumbai, Delhi, Amritsar, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Jaipur.

You’ll also want a bite of Mumbai’s Tad Deo Pao Bhajee, a pan-fried vegetable patty tucked between two savoury buns toasted with India’s Amul butter. In celebration of World Margarita Day, diners will also be able to enjoy six homemade margarita creations at Table from 22 February to 31 March 2020. What’s more, you can pair the street food dish of your choice with an equally delicious margarita for S$20++.
