Prive is the only standalone pavilion in CHIJMES and commands an impressive plot of prime courtyard real estate, and dons a look that's fresher and more chic than anything else around. The sprawling portico is outfitted in bamboo, teak and concrete, channeling the organic feel of the characteristic CHIJMES greenery. The simple lines and casual furnishings offer a roomy backyard feel, but elevated with design-centric touches, so it's more of what we would imagine Gwyneth Paltrow's back lawn to be like rather than our next-door neigbour's. Vintage green brick and terracotta tiles are reflected from the rattan-clad mirrors, all cast with a romantic glow come nighttime. The set-up, along with the varied menu, allow Prive to be a great spot for both brunch with the family, or an after work hangout with friends.

The menu has brought along the most-loved dishes from Keppel Bay including Eggs Benedict, crispy Fish & Chips we can't seem to get out of our heads, satisfying Wagyu burgers, and divine Sticky Date Pudding. Being added to the mix are stone-baked pizzas, hearty brunch and kids options, as well as local favourites like the Hainanese Chicken Rice and Traditional Chicken Curry. If all those sound like perfect bar food, it's because they are, and Prive has just the right pours to suit them from cocktails to affordable beers and wines. Drop by for happy hour from 5pm to 8pm daily and relax in the garden with an ice-cold drink in hand. All in all, Prive keeps things casual and simple with their new centrally located outlet. Think of it as your own backyard, just better. (Jun 2017)

THE BUZZ

"One of the best parts of this outlet is their huge alfresco space, a prime spot for people watching among the white walls of the heritage building. There's lots of bar snacks, beers and wines to go around - so drink up." -SG Now
