Singapore travel guide
The editors’ selection
This city-sized country has been setting an example in terms of economic growth and urban planning for decades now. But Singapore’s strength also lies in its cultural diversity, which is reflected in its heritage, culture and cuisine. Follow our lead as we guide you to artistic hubs, novel cinemas and leafy parks.
Clos Pasoh, Bukit Pasoh
Tucked away on the second floor of a heritage shophouse on Bukit Pasoh road, Clos Pasoh is a slice of French summer in the heart of Singapore. Led by Louis Pacquelin (the former chef de cuisine at BBR by Alain Ducasse), this colourful brasserie is the perfect spot for a tasty weekend brunch. To pair with your meal, pick a bottle of wine from the house’s 1,500-label cellar.

Zouk Cinema Club, Clarke Quay
Singapore’s iconic Zouk nightclub has transformed its main room into a pop-up cinema. Although visitors won’t be able to show off their dance moves here for the time being, they’ll surely appreciate the state-of-the-art lighting and sound system. Both new film releases and classic movies are shown every Wednesday through to Saturday, while the themed décor is also worth viewing as it changes every two months.
