Chinatown

Whether you’re slurping down a bowl of comforting fish soup from Mr Fish or you’ve endured the hour-long wait at the one-Michelin-starred Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice (good on you!), reward yourself with a lovely, ice-cold pint from Smith Street Taps. The sister outlet of The Good Beer Company, this haven for craft beer lovers offers familiar names like Sapporo alongside lesser-known brews from all over the world at very affordable price tags ($10-$12 for a pint). Don't be shy to talk to owners Daniel and Meng Chao for recommendations — it'd be silly to miss out on a great food pairing, or a truly unique pour. If available, go for the German Weihenstephaner ($12), a wheat beer that Burpple Tastemaker Russell Leong describes as “refreshing and light with a whiff of wheat and a tease of fruitiness”.
Avg Price: $15 per person (drinks only)

Everything on this table was so so good, from the Char Siew - perfectly roasted with a good bite. Bits of charred parts that make you think you have hit the jackpot when you savour it! To the well cooked noodles (I sompa this is seriously the wanton mee form of al dente), juicy tasty duck to even the dumplings in soup! The table were in a choir of hmmms and ahhhs 😋💦💦💦 a good meal well enjoyed for sure!
