Greek cuisine isn’t something most Singaporeans have tried, and it’s largely because there aren’t that many authentic Greek eateries on our Little Red Dot. Zorba The Greek Taverna is a rare gem serving up Greek staples done right. 

If you’re dining in at their picturesque waterfront restaurant, you’ll get to enjoy 1-for-1 brunch dishes like Greek Style Pasta Salad, and ham or salmon Avga – a dish of eggs cooked in fresh tomatoes.

They’re also offering traditional Greek desserts as part of their takeaway 1-for-1 deal. Options include Baklava – an intricately layered filo pastry sandwiching diced nuts and glazed with honey syrup, or something called Yiaourti Me Meli – essentially premium imported Greek yogurt topped with honey and chopped walnuts.
