Moving from the glitz of the Marina Bay Sands to the old-world-meets-new-world charm of Club Street, Caffe B is one of the island’s best-kept secrets, loved by regulars for its cocktails and refined Japanese-meets-Italian cuisine. Now the environs are more chill, expanded, and located in one of the trendiest parts of town, which makes it a triply more exciting experience. Kick off a meal here with a sinful Espresso Martini as you wait for your first course to arrive. A dome-shaped Burrata Cheese arrives at the table wobbling with the promise of its creamy insides, best enjoyed mopped up with wedges of heirloom tomatoes on the side. Then there’s the refined Espelette Octopus Salad, featuring grilled octopus legs alongside a piquant and fruity espelette sauce, a Mediterranean flavour combination made in heaven. The ocean theme continues with a plate of grilled King Prawns served atop a bed of crunchy and sweet baby vegetables.

The signature Risotto Singapore features a crown of scallops and uni, the whole dish bathed in a saffron-kissed stock, giving way to creamy, umami mouthfuls, while the Tagliatelle Carbonara features tangles of pasta coated with eggy cream, flecked with bits of truffle and a heady topping of freshly shaved Parmesan cheese. For dessert, nothing short of the Tiramisu, except it’s a deconstructed version featuring a dome of Mascarpone ice cream over a scattering of chocolate and coffee cake, coffee gelee, and raspberry coulis. Sure-handed cuisine, an elegant dining room, and punchy cocktails worth their weight in glassware, this is a worthy addition to the gems along Club Street. (Jan 2018)
