How to Have the Best Day Ever in Singapore
"It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that some of the best French food outside of France is found in Singapore. Just look at Odette, 36-year-old chef Julien Royer’s love letter to French fine dining, inspired by his grandmother, Odette. Also set in the National Gallery, the seasonally-driven, locally-minded restaurant was named the best restaurant in Asia by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2019. The menu is an ever-changing, ever-delightful list of surprises but recent signatures have included the Foie Gras ‘Comme un Pho’—a France-meets-Asia stunner that nestles simmered Japanese abalone, foie gras, nasturtium, and kinome leaves in a fragrant broth. Be warned: a meal here isn’t cheap." - Dan Q. Dao
