Fans of Chef Damian would have followed his journey from his days of cooking up a storm at Folklore, to his fantastic run at Restaurant Kin, and they surely would have heard through the grapevine about the opening of Rempapa, before any information was even officially released. It's no wonder the renowned rebel chef has garnered such a wide and loyal following — his Peranakan dishes are truly second to none. I admire and have always been impressed by Chef Damian's passion in keeping traditions and his family recipes alive. He tries to stop the loss of more heritage dishes by making sure that Peranakan cuisine is accessible, and has now come up with New Heritage cuisine to introduce a taste of almost-lost Peranakan flavours to the younger generations.
He has breathed new life into the weekend menu with palate-pleasing brunch favourites cleverly amped up with international flavours.

Hidden within NEWest is Birdfolks, a new spot that's especially proud of their fried chicken and rice bowls. With an interesting menu packed with a diverse range of offerings — from local tea and coffee to craft beers, and Japanese-inspired rice bowls to pancakes — Birdfolks hopes to draw more than just the residents in the area to their humble space.
SPRMRKT was born out of a shared love for food and art. The five-year-old haunt has gone through an interior refurbishment and has recently introduced new all-day, brunch and late night menus of hearty and wholesome favourites at their McCallum Street café. Pair the new creations with their signature smoothies, refreshing organic beverages and boutique wines that follow sustainable, organic and biodynamic practices, and you won't go wrong.
