Stepping into Fat Prince will make you doubt whether you’re in Singapore. From the Ottoman-inspired interior to traditional Turkish coffee brewed in a sandpit, you’re in for a lavish Middle Eastern dining experience. 🍽✨
Although the menu price range is quite high-end, the set lunch is a steal. Begin with a dip dilemma between Artichoke and Herb Hummus or Roasted Cashew Hummus. Next up, choose one from 4 mezze options ranging from the zesty Broccoli Salad topped with almonds and a squeeze of lemon to the Pit Smoked Aubergine with a touch of mint and tahini. Let’s not forget the highlight — a choice of 2 kebabs from unique options including Truffle Falafel, Pit Roasted Lamb Leg, Spicy Seabass, and more. The sweet finale (aka the dessert) is the chef’s surprise! 😉

Prepare to be whisked away to Hawaii with Good Bites’ fresh boho vibes. If you’re on a date, snag a sweet deal with their bundle for 2 at $49 that gets you 2 mains, 2 drinks, and 2 desserts.
We recommend trying their Tom Yum Seafood Pasta. Those who prefer less tangy tastes should try the Turkey Bacon & Chicken Ham Carbonara or the Da Burger Bomb with Cajun Fries.
