The Weekly Grub: 5 Things To Eat And Drink In Singapore This Week

PUBLISHED April 3rd, 2019 05:02 pm | UPDATED April 20th, 2019 04:55 pm

Things are coming up roses in April. Breeze through Singapore’s endless summer with spring offerings at CURE on Keong Saik Road, deals on celebrity chef restaurants at Resorts World Sentosa, and for those allergic to alcohol – Heineken 0.0. If you’re looking for the real deal instead, pop by Woobar for a cocktail or two (you’ll probably end up having more).

Reinventing Spring at CURE

Spring has sprung at CURE in the form of a refreshing new menu of seasonal offerings. Kick things off with a medley of spring peas, compressed apple, smoked mussels and yuzu gel in a crisp Pea Tart, or experience shoulder season in summer heat and the layered flavour profile of the Hamachi with Thai green curry. Roast Pigeon for 2 utilises every part of the animal, from the fowl’s bones to the pigeon legs and liver for a guilt-free feast. Look forward to an invigorating range of five new Kombuchas curated with the new spring menu in mind, bringing new flavours like smoky and savoury Charred Corn with Kaffir, or the apple-pie reminiscent Allspice with Apple.

Heineken 0.0

Long for an ice cold beer in the sweltering afternoon, but got a bad case of the Asian flush? Heineken’s new innovation, the Heineken 0.0, was made for you. Eliminating beer-induced blushing or post-lunch tipsiness, the alcohol-free lager was specially formulated to keep the brand’s signature balance of fruity notes and soft malty body, but without the latent effects of alcohol. Also: it clocks in at only 69 calories for 330ml, so you’re able to indulge in a brew at any hour of the day without fear of losing focus on doing what you love, or gaining a beer belly.
