In the midst of modernisation, tall buildings and glass facades, Singapore reminds a country with rich history and cultural background. In the heart of Telok Ayer, you can find Telok Ayer Green where there’s history on the area. This also includes, bronze sculpture replicating the fishing village featuring fishing boats and local people. It is essentially a park in the middle of the city but with history to read up on. #singapore

#Singapore attractions Telok Ayer Road, which has a small park, Telok Ayer Green, has statues and history in English for you to read. Although it is a small park, it is beautifully decorated, clean, and a nice place to chill. Next to this park is the Nagore Dargah, a national memorial for Indian Muslims. It is also a beautiful architecture. 📌To get there, I walked from China Town, but if you want to come here, you have to take the MRT Telok Ayer, Exit A, which is the closest.

Found along the Telok Ayer area with a nearby MRT station with the same name, this mall has a whole bunch of restaurants to check out. Very accessible as it is within walking distance from many office buildings and the main street of Chinatown. My favourite go-to restaurant here is Aston’s, which serves western grills and steaks at a pretty decent price. Grab a cup of bubble tea from level 1 too! My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #2023travelwish #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #mustvisit #shoppingmall #singapore

Address: Corner Bar L'Operetta, 7 Boon Tat St, Singapore 069614 Price: $30/pp Tucked in a corner of Telok Ayer, lies a casual yet classy italin dinning place Dropped by this place. We decided to have a quick dinner on a Monday evening. The menu was extensive but we ordered:- 1. Linguine al Geanchio - 8/10. Perfect dish for seafood lover. The crab meat was in the sauce, and the pasta was cooked to perfection. 2. Gnocchi Gratinati 4 Formaggi - 7/10. It tasted good even though the sauce could use a pinch of salt and the Gnocchi was over cooked. The portion was just right. The food service was slow but the staff was friendly, so that is appreciated. #sginsider

Address - 167/169 Telok Ayer Street, #02-01, Singapore 068618 In Singapore, Christmas is the season to look out for pop-up markets that sell awesome and unique Christmas gifts for giving to friends and loved ones. Naiise is a locally owned brand that specializes in curating quirky, chic products that sometimes have a Singaporean humour twist to it. The market was really fun to walk as the decor gave off that festive vibe! It was convenient that they accepted both cash and credit card for easy payment. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #sginsider #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #christmas #christmasmarket #market #shopping #singapore

Remember how I said flash coffee is everywhere and always strategically located near office towers? I visited another one at cross street and was pleasantly surprised they are opened on weekends. Eateries around the area are known to NOT open on weekends and I was so happy Flash coffee was opened! Because I was on the way to visit friend having their staycation at clan and wanted to buy some drinks. Also the night before I tried their turmeric latte and fell in love. This time I tried their milk tea for the first time. I think there were more milk than tea but for the novelty of having drinks being sold near the hotel. I’m okay! I tried the croissant also and it’s decent however it’s okay if you don’t try it. #musteat

#mustdo Ally spin studio Address: 8 Cross St, #02-01/02 Manulife Tower, Singapore 048424 A spinning studio at Manulife Tower and I came here with a friend. My first impression of this studio was fantastic, great aesthetics and with spacious surroundings. Just look at their coffee and smoothies bar counter and you know it will be fantastic. In their bathroom, they also provide shower amenities too so you can look good and smell good after a workout. It is also located at a very convenient place and Telok Ayer MRT is just a short walk away. I would love to revisit this place.

#artshunting Telok Ayer MRT This area has a rich culture and is located along Chinatown. Telok Ayer is a Malay word and it means bay and water. In the earlier days, this area was popular with the Chinese and this is how all the temples and clan associations are located at Telok Ayer. I recommend you to take the Downtown line and alight at Telok Ayer MRT. Then you can walk around the area until Chinatown. You can identify many tall buildings here and there are also many artefacts too. Once you come out from the MRT, you will see a very tall and bronze building and this is The Clan Hotel. You can also include the newest building CapitaGreen in your route too. Or if you are hungry, then you can include Lau Pa Sat hawker in your route too. It is always fun to rediscover Singapore because we always don’t treasure what we have.

Address - Telok Ayer Green Park, Telok Ayer Street, Chinatown Telok Ayer Green Park is located between two major landmarks of Singapore’s heritage, the Thian Hock Keng Temple and the Nagore Durgha Shrine. This area used to be populated by Malay fishing villagers but when Singapore was taken over by the British, this area was then designated for Chinese immigrants. It then became a bustling trading spot for commerce. Today, this park commemorates the historical scenes that went on here via these interesting metal sculptures. These true-to-life statues are incredibly detailed and seem to be trading rice, fishing, and celebrating a traditional Chinese festival. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #localhistory #naturewonders #chinatown #park #singapore

Telok Ayer Green Located along Telok Ayer Street and Boon Tat Street, this small park showcases a small pond and has different sculptures or statues depicting scenes from early immigrants around year 1800. During this time, I was staying at The Clan hotel, where there was a tea ceremony. The tea ceremony master explained a brief background of the history of Telok Ayer, it’s surrounding area, it’s settlers and the tea ceremony itself. It made me appreciate this park more because it gave me a feeling of nostalgia and deeper understanding of the place’s history. It gave me a visual of some of the topics mentioned during the tea ceremony. This park is walking distance from Telok Ayer mrt and Amoy street. Very near it are murals, still depicting a small part of Singapore’s history. Book a hotel in this area via this app and explore the neighborhood. You can also take a stroll through Ann Siang Hill which is also nearby (refer to another trip moment I posted about this hill).

Both indoor and outdoor seats are available but we went for the indoor seats as it was a warm evening. Mood lighting gave the restaurant a cosy, intimate vibe, making it a nice place to wind down and relax. Do note that there aren’t many tables due to space constraints so it’s best to make a reservation before heading down. For starters, we ordered the crispy fish skins, catfish tacos, smoked tuna tartare ceviche, grilled octopus leg and squid noodle ramen. Everything was so good! You could tell that each dish was constructed with so much thought, from the flavours and textures to the overall presentation aesthetic. The flavours were carefully procured and well-balanced in terms of their sweet, sour, bitter and savoury ratios, making each bite a tantalizing delight. As starter dishes, they were light and refreshing, perfect for opening up our appetites. I couldn’t pick a favourite even if I tried, although I would recommend the squid noodle ramen just because it was so novel and unexpectedly delicious. Next up, we had the Sichuan BBQ snapper fish and beef short rib pastrami for our mains, along with some sides of potato purée and roasted cauliflower. Initially, I was slightly worried that the snapper would be too spicy but it turned out to be a lot more fragrant than spicy. The meat was well-cooked and delicately soft too. We couldn’t say the same for the beef though as the quality was inconsistent among us, depending on which slice of beef we got. Some were juicy and melt-in-your-mouth, others were a tad dry and tough to chew. Surprisingly, the sides were unbeatable just like our starters! The potato purée was wonderfully smooth and well-seasoned, and the roasted cauliflower was nicely browned and umami. We went round the table to share which dish was the star of the night and a few of us actually nominated these humble yet outstanding sides as our choice. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #restaurant #fusioncuisine #singapore

If you're a fan of spicy sichuan-style noodles, you're in luck! Nestled amongst shophouses along Telok Ayer Street, you'll find this muslim-owned restaurant serving hand-pulled noodles with the authentic taste of XinJiang. The handmade pull noodle is so good. Who Love to eat Spicy, i will recommend spicy beef Noddle and spicy dumpling. #halal

Tucked away in the basement of Mercure Icon Singapore City Centre, Panda Coffee is not your typical café. Here, the fiery boldness of Sichuan malatang meets the refined craft of specialty coffee, creating an unexpected but unforgettable pairing. Whether you’re craving a spicy, numbing broth or a smooth, non-acidic latte, this hidden gem offers the best of both worlds. Malatang with a Punch – The Chengdu Spicy Mala Soup If you love spice, Panda Coffee’s Chengdu Spicy Mala soup base is a must-try. It delivers that signature Sichuan málà (麻辣) kick—where the numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns meets the deep, aromatic heat of chili. The broth is rich, complex, and incredibly addictive. You can customize your malatang with a wide selection of fresh ingredients, from thinly sliced meats to crunchy lotus roots and silky tofu. The best part? You get to watch as your chosen ingredients soak up all that fiery, flavorful goodness. For those who prefer something milder, Panda Coffee offers four different soup bases, so there’s something for every spice tolerance. But if you're here for the full experience, the Chengdu Spicy Mala broth is the way to go. Coffee with a Twist – Orange Americano & Non-Acidic Brews Once your taste buds are tingling from the mala spice, it’s time to cool things down with one of Panda Coffee’s signature drinks. Orange Americano: A Refreshing Surprise Their Orange Americano is a standout—fresh orange slices and espresso might sound like an unusual combination, but the citrusy brightness perfectly balances the bitterness of the coffee. The result? A surprisingly refreshing and bold drink that cleanses the palate after a fiery malatang meal. Smooth, Non-Acidic Coffee with Latte Art For those who prefer a mellow and velvety coffee experience, Panda Coffee offers non-acidic brews, ensuring a smooth, rich taste without the usual sharpness. Pair that with their freshly crafted latte art, and you have a cup that’s as visually appealing as it is satisfying. Why This Pairing Works At first glance, malatang and coffee might seem like an odd duo. But think about it—after indulging in a spicy, numbing bowl of mala soup, a cool and smooth coffee provides the perfect contrast. Whether it’s the citrusy lift of an Orange Americano or the creamy comfort of a latte, the flavors complement each other in ways you wouldn’t expect. Plus, in a city like Singapore, where food culture thrives on bold flavors and unique combinations, Panda Coffee is carving out its own niche—one spicy broth and beautifully brewed coffee at a time. Final Thoughts If you’re looking for a dining experience that’s a little different, Panda Coffee at Mercure Icon Singapore City Centre is worth the visit. Whether you’re a mala enthusiast, a coffee lover, or just curious about how the two can come together, this café offers a unique and satisfying experience.

It was a walk in, 2 of us and they are able to accommodate us, it’s located at Telok Ayer, 2nd and 3rd floor. It’s a really cosy bar I must say, we were seated at the 3rd floor all at bar seats and I strongly recommend the Jysoen handrolls with sake pairing, it’s like $38 + $18. Superb worth it!! I was 3/4 full at the end of it, and we still ordered the grilled pork belly skewers (literally melts in your mouth!) slurps, and the seabeam carpaccio! A meal for 2 like this cost $200 or lesser! #handroll #sake #sushi #izakaya #sakebar #Tokunori #Tokunorihandroll

#newyearnewtrip I had an incredible birthday celebration at Tapasu Oyster Gastronomiya. The $1.50 oysters were an absolute steal and were incredibly fresh, delivering that perfect briny flavor. It’s hard to believe they were so affordable for the quality they offered! The $6 happy hour wine was also a fantastic deal—smooth and delicious, it paired perfectly with the oysters and other dishes. I ended up having way too much food and drinks, but everything was so tasty and great value for money. The vibe at Tapasu is relaxed yet lively, making it the perfect spot for a casual yet indulgent celebration. Whether you’re there for oysters, wine, or just a fun time with friends, this place delivers on all fronts. I definitely recommend it for anyone looking for good food, great drinks, and amazing value!

SAVE THIS, you won't regret. @naemarestaurant Naema's menu is a loving homage to Moroccan cuisine with a Mediterranean twist. From regional specialties to beloved classics, every dish is a celebration of culture, blending Berber, Arab, and Andalusian influences. It's all about slow-cooked tagines, the magic of spices like saffron and cinnamon, and the zest of preserved lemons. Naema invites you to explore flavors that speak of the land, the people, and the soulful passion that defines them. I highly recommend the Smokey Muhammara, a chunky dip made with roasted red peppers, and the Moroccan Cigars, phyllo pastry filled with ground lamb, served with mint yogurt sauce, and the Lobster Risotto, which features saffron-infused shellfish broth, arborio rice, mascarpone, and parmesan cheese. For desserts, I loved all three, from Pistachio & Raspberry Paris-Brest, with choux pastry, pistachio cream, raspberry gel, and fresh raspberries, Warm Strawberries & Watermelon Sorbet, with honey caramelized strawberries, white balsamic reduction, yogurt crisp, and mint oil to the Apple Croustillant, phyllo pastry with caramelized apple, cinnamon, and raisin, served with vanilla ice cream. #foodies

#familytrips2024 The Telok Ayer street was busy with many people and restaurants in the evening. You can. see that the temples have closed. And there are several restaurants and bars starting to get more busy. The place seems to be very lively on the weekends night time compared to during the weekdays night time. I like the beautiful architecture of each of the shophouses buildings. For our dream destination, we would like to visit Penang island . We will like to buy back some of their local snacks from their famous shops there. To share them with our friends .

#familytrips2024 At the telok Ayer street, you would be able to find some wall art pieces. These art pieces tell us about the past of Singapore here. Such as how the people here earn a living in the past, and how does the street looks like. It is very interesting to find those artwork here . For our dream destination we would like to visit Pattaya . We like the attractions, the temple, and the shopping there. We have been there on a direct flight from Singapore in the past .
