Oosh Restaurant & Bar – Singapore

Credit Cards: All Major
Prices: Expensive

Oosh is located at the former British Army barracks district at Tanglin Village (Dempsey Hill) formerly known as Dempsey Road. The alfresco bar and restaurant has a long beautiful sushi bar, attractive and artfully-lit cabanas along with numerous aquatic special effects. You will find an extensive drinks menu listing most of the premium liquors available. Sensibly, there is a dress code: no slippers, singlets or cut-offs.

A lot of thought has gone into the architecture, design, and décor, it is really very well coordinated. The negatives are that the service is slow in spite of a service call button, and the prices are high for food that is only average at best, and drinks and wine are unfairly marked up. It is not necessary to dwell anymore on this establishment except to say; that it is a romantic place to visit but the bullet stops there—nothing else will impress!

Wee Nam Kee Hainanese Chicken Rice – Singapore

As is so often the case, the landlord thought that Wee Nam Kee chicken rice was doing such a good business that they did not renew the lease and took over the shop house themselves to serve chicken rice,
and Wee Nam Kee was forced to move up the street, where they still are doing a thriving business while
the landlord’s operation went bust.
