If you’re craving wallet-friendly authentic Thai food, Siam Kitchen has got you covered. This cosy restaurant serves signatures like Wok-Fried Phad Thai Noodles and Coconut Tom Yum Chicken Soup — the latter comes with just the right amount of sour punch and creaminess.
For extra heat, go for the fresh Grilled Stingray with Sambal Sauce. Its smoky and spicy flavours will surely satisfy you if you can handle your chilli. Then, cool off with the sweet and refreshing taste of the Mango Sticky Rice dessert.

Kintamani Indonesian Restaurant has something for everyone — including Sushi, Siew Mai, Sup Buntut (oxtail soup), and Daging Belado (Spicy Beef).
However, one of the most popular dishes is the Ikan Colo Colo (Indonesian-style grilled fish). The tender fish is smothered in a rich and spicy sauce. It’s the perfect balance of spiciness, tanginess, and sweetness. Pair it with the light and crispy Salad Cumi Cumi (squid salad), and you’re all set for a memorable meal.

The famous annual bazaar is back with over 100 F&B stalls!
Fancy a good steak? Then you should try Picanhas’ juicy and succulent Queen of Steak. Those who don’t consume beef can give the Duck Steak a shot. The dish comprises flavourful confit duck breast, Teriyaki sauce, and housemade slaw. Another noteworthy dish is the sweet and savoury Picanha Don. It’s a wholesome bowl of blue rice topped with thinly sliced tender meat, purple cabbage, onsen egg, and crunchy garlic bits.
For something to-go, pick up The Original Pisang Keju’s cheesy banana fritters, which come in flavours like Oreo, Condensed Milk, Biscoff, and Butterscotch. Or how about getting the Mix Flavour pack, which has all 4?
Flush down your bites with chilled drinks like Spanish Latte and Pink Matcha from The Gaosyp x Offday Coffee. Their cups are full-on aesthetics, so don’t forget to take a pic for the ‘gram. 📸
