For all the Pop Mart-obsessed people out there, you’ll love Nana & Friends concept. For every bingsu you order, you’ll get a mystery box from a vending machine, revealing a plushie bag charm where you stand to get a cow, frog, duck, bunny, or even Nana herself.

4. 1939


Multi-concept bar that used to be Potato Head


With the start of a new year, the iconic drinking spot formerly known as Potato Head has rebranded as 1939. While it still occupies the same heritage building as before, each level of the shophouse now boasts individual themes with a curated drinks menu to match the experience.

Image adapted from: 1939

Starting from the ground level, it features an open kitchen concept that perseveres the legacy of the OG Tong Ah Eating House. The second floor is where you’ll find the main dining area, where you can indulge in dishes like Lambango ($23) against the background of hand-painted murals. Level 3 is a speakeasy-style corner with boujee vibes and a cool cocktail programme, BPM, where cocktails reflect how hype the music will be.

Image credit: 1939

Last but not least, the rooftop bar is where you can have a chill drink with stunning views of the city and skyline. Crowd favourites from the rooftop are the Wilfred’s Brownie ($16) and the Purple Rain ($24) cocktails.

8. ICE & TIME


Japanese-inspired sweet treats


As the weather starts to warm up, keep ICE & TIME in mind the next time you need a cool down. This dessert cafe has a Muji-esque interior with wood furniture and an abundance of plant decor. Staying true to the Japanese theme, their desserts include Kakigori, which looks a bit like the ice kacangs we are used to.


Image credit: Or Offer via Google Maps

Instead of just plain-tasting shaved ice, the ice used to make Kakigori infuses Laoshan spring water and milk pudding, ensuring that every bite is as flavourful as the last. There are 9 Kakigori flavours to choose from, with the top picks being the Japan Strawberry Enchantment ($22.60) and Matcha Bliss ($18.90). Since they are only sold in 1 size, we suggest you bring a friend along to help devour it.
