Living in a cosmopolitan city means that most of us are spending long hours in air-conditioned rooms or buildings the entire day. But it is always a refreshing change to be outdoors with the fresh air and natural breeze.
This is why restaurants that offer al fresco dining areas are getting more and more popular. Some of these restaurants offer sky-high views while others boast magnificent views of lush greenery.
Whether you are looking for a place to spend a romantic night with your other half, have a meeting with your clients or showing the best of Singapore to your foreign friends, these 19 Romantic Al Fresco Restaurants In Singapore are sure to impress.
