Gourmet Kopi at The New Black
Kopi-o, Kopi-c, and Kopi Bing are familiar terms for anyone who wants to get a quick fix of caffeine at their nearest coffeeshop, but gourmet Kopi? Now, that’s different. The New Black’s new location at Republic Plaza will see their collection of coffee artisans and tea masters providing connoisseurs with the epicurean version of our local brew. Devised by the Director of Coffee and Education and USA National Barista Champion Bronwen Serna, coffee enthusiasts can get a cup for $6.50 each, with the sweetness of every cup adjusted according to preference.

New Menu at Lime House
Despite the diversity of Singapore’s food & beverage scene, Lime House is astoundingly still the only place to get authentic Caribbean food in Singapore. The recent re-jig of their menu sees all the meatiest sharing plates take centre-stage in this loveable establishment. For instance, the colossal Beef Ribs ($98) consists of a hunk of beef that comes slathered in Lime House’s house-made BBQ sauce. Other paradigms of typical Caribbean cuisine include the boneless Whole Jerk Chicken ($72) and the sumptuous Whole Fish Escovitch ($76), while alcohol enthusiasts can pamper themselves with a specially curated selection of rum.
