Every nook in Singapore has its gems and here are 5 of the best restaurants you can discover this month.

The Nomads

Take the road less travelled and step into a gastronomic trail through Central Asia. With Silk Road as the main forefront, The Nomads’ thoughtfully crafted menu will blow your mind (and tastebuds) through well-balanced spices, flavours and various culinary influences from countries along the Silk Road. Each dish will transport you to a different dimension! Our top favourites: The Nomads Nan with Hunter-Gatherer’s Butter, Salat, Plov, Squid Laghman and Medovik.

Fun fact: The restaurant is hidden behind a bar that rotates periodically. It’s certainly a hold-in-a-wall! Read more about the restaurant here.
