Singles Day is fast approaching, but hey, we’ve got grub aplenty to keep us company. If you’re single as a pringle, get ready to mingle with Deliveroo’s hot food delivery deals, or pig out on sizzling pork delicacies from Bedrock Bar & Grill. In the mood for adventure? Treat yo’ self with Tippling Club’s avant-garde creations, then top it all off with revamped Italian tipples.
Bedrock Bar & Grill Sizzles Up ‘Grape Pork’
We’ve seen hormone-free Brandt Beef, finely-marbled Te Mana Lamb, and now, for the final edition of its World Meat Series, Bedrock Bar & Grill is dishing up some luscious ‘Grape Pork’. Raised on a vitamin-rich diet of Japanese grapes and home-prepared corn, Budou-buta pigs yield a wondrously tender meat with a mild, sweet aftertaste. This exquisite pork will be showcased in three limited-edition Bedrock creations. Get your surf ‘n’ turf fix with the Pulled Pork & Shrimp Sandwich ($48++), slathered with truffle mayo. For meatier fare, chow down on the Woodfire Grilled Pork Steak ($58++) with sauté potatoes, or let the gorgeous Pork Belly with Scallops ($68++) melt in your mouth.
Bedrock Bar & Grill‘s Budou-buta offerings are available from now till 15 December 2019 at 96 Somerset Road, #01-05, Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Orchard, Singapore 238163, p. +65 6238 0054.

Tippling Club Launches New Menus
We can always count on Tippling Club for a zany gastro-adventure, and its new menus don’t disappoint. The revamped Classic Menu (S$190++ for five courses) and Gourmand Menu (S$295++ for 10 courses) feature a tantalising play of textures and flavours, from umami-packed Bafun Uni Omelette with a punch of wasabi sabayon, to Foie Gras Cheesecake, a funky medley of rich foie gras and sweet crème catalane. Those opting for the Gourmand Menu will round off your meal with a Willy Wonka-esque chocolate bar, each potentially concealing Lord Ryan’s Golden Ticket − a ticket for a complimentary two-course meal at Tippling Club. What fun!
Tippling Club‘s new menus are available for lunch and dinner from Mondays to Fridays, and for dinner only on Saturdays, at 38 Tanjong Pagar Rd, Singapore 088461, p. +65 6475 2217.
Caffe Fernet Brews Fresh Drinks Lineup
Savour a sip of la dolce vita with Caffe Fernet‘s new Italian cocktail lineup. This quayside restaurant-bar welcomes 13 new creations to its menu, each a spirited twist on classic Italian tipples. The iconic Negroni packs a wallop of heat in the Ginger Negroni (S$22), laced with honey vodka and spicy ginger distillate. Spritz fans will certainly get a buzz from the Bee’s Spritz (S$18), a fruit-forward concoction of preserved honey lemon peppers with Le Gin and Nardini Tagliatella. And for liquid dessert, there’s the Peanut Alexander (S$22) − a creamy blend of Teeling Irish Whiskey, peanut milk, berry composte, and maple syrup.
Caffe Fernet‘s new drinks menu is available daily at Customs House, 70 Collyer Quay, #01-05, Singapore 049323, p. +65 9178 1105.
The Line Serves Up Nostalgic Peranakan Nosh

The spread will spotlight 15 Peranakan heirloom dishes drawn from Shermay Lee’s The New Mrs Lee’s Cookbook (in 2 volumes), which reworks prized family recipes by the late Mrs Lee Chin Koon (mother of Lee Kuan Yew). Expect authentic Nonya dishes alongside Chinese, Malay, and Eurasian delights, each richly infused with homely warmth.
