Craving a taste of Greece? Zorba the Greek Taverna’s got you covered. Decked out in a white-and-aqua-blue colour palette reminiscent of Santorini architecture, the tavern is situated right beside the Singapore River, where you’ll get to enjoy Greek cuisine like Souvlaki, grills, and dips alongside a glass of wine while enjoying the view.

Taco Tuesdays? Yes please, especially when they’re held at Lucha Loco, a Mexican spot with cosy interiors and a gorgeous alfresco dining space. They’ve got all your Mexican faves on deck like tacos, quesadillas and enchiladas, all of which are absolutely superb. Of course you can’t really go to a Mexican restaurant without getting a couple of cocktails, so we recommend the frozen pineapple margaritas. A+.
