At some point, it became a Singaporean norm to use tissues and name cards to reserve seats in coffee shops and hawker centres — or “chope” as we like to say it colloquially. Ever since the aptly-named Chope launched and rapidly took root in Singapore, they’ve extended the same ease of reservations to restaurants. The hassle of booking a table has become as simple as a tap on their app or on their website.
The latest news from them will unleash the foodie fanatic in you. It’s time to make your way to the land of gastronomical paradise because ChopeDeals is celebrating the first mega food flash sale event of the year!

CLINTON STREET BAKING COMPANY
Clinton Street Baking Co. & Restaurant from New York City’s Lower East Side is best for breakfasts, lunches, and weekend brunches. Fancy a New York brunch experience? This spot is nestled amongst a slew of cafes and eateries that Purvis Street is home to.
You better be getting their blueberry pancakes with an order of Pancakes with Warm Maple Butter (S$19++) for decadence at breakfast. But if you would rather have savoury Chicken & Waffles (S$21++) over fluffy pancakes, Clinton’s has chunky chicken with fried seasoned skin perched atop a soft vanilla buttermilk waffle.
Pay S$50 for S$100 cash vouchers through ChopeDeals.

DON & TORI
Don & Tori is a modern Japanese restaurant that sets the bar pretty high for dons, makis, and yakimono (grilled or pan-fried) items as long as you’re not a purist. It’s a serene enclave in the Central Business District that joins the heavyweights on Tras Street. Their live sushi bar will entertain you as you watch your orders being assembled and made.
Scallop Butter Yaki (S$25++) is a very decadent light bite with grilled scallops bathed in richly buttery sake. For a filling rice bowl, their Hokkaido Don (S$26++) is a briny union of tuna mince, salmon roe, plump scallops, and caviar toppings on appetisingly marinated rice. A must-try maki is their Unagi Foie Gras Maki (S$25++) that has a crab meat core.
Pay S$25 for S$50, S$70 for S$100 cash vouchers through ChopeDeals.

Duck is one of our favourite proteins ever. This new restaurant prides themselves on using award-winning Silver Hill ducks from Silver Hill Farm in Ireland — the A5 ‘wagyu’ breed of ducks. Their impressive variety of both Asian and Western-style duck dishes raises the bar for duck meat with theirs being especially succulent, tender, and robust.
A must-get is their signature Roast Irish Duck (S$28 for a half, S$50 for whole) with crisp amber skin and moist meat that melts in your mouth with a range of dips. Their Duck Confit & Waffle (S$20) is intensely flavourful even without fancy twists.
For something quick and fuss-free, their Black Pepper Duck Pie and Tomato-Pineapple Duck Pie (S$6 each) won’t disappoint.
Pay S$35 for S$50 cash vouchers through ChopeDeals.

MARCHÉ MÖVENPICK
A good place for a group hangout with a good selection of European nosh is at Marché Mövenpick. They have pizzas made-to-order, paella, all-time-favourite rostis, oysters, wholesome salads, and more.
The classic Swiss Rösti (S$8.90+) is an item that everyone has to order. For sharing bites, we love the Margherita Pizza (S$18.90+) for its crunchy crust; it is cheesy and comes with tomatoes and basil. You’d love the Seafood Aglio Olio (S$20.90+) too, that comes complete with mussels and plump prawns.

MINISTRY OF BURGERS
How often can you get a four-patty burger? You don’t have to head down to pasar malams for your ramly burger fix because Ministry of Burgers, one of the new joints at White Sands Shopping Centre, orders from the same suppliers! What’s even better is that their patties are thicker and weightier.
Go with your mob of hungry souls (pun intended) for their MoB Thunder (S$9.90) and customise a mixed patty choice of chicken, classic and hearty beef, or crunchy fish fillets. But if you’re coming in pairs and are looking for something smaller, on promo is their Double Patty Ramly Burger. It comes with the same crepe thin egg and sauces like black pepper that’s honey-sweet and tangy.
Pay S$5.90 (U.P. S$11.80) for their 1-for-1 Double Patty Ramly Burger through ChopeDeals.

Simple yet satisfying is their classic pizza range which comes in a variety of different flavours. The doughy base is slightly thicker and made fresh on the spot; yes, you can watch the chefs in action at the open kitchen.

RUTH’S CHRIS STEAK HOUSE
Ruth’s Chris Steak House is an upmarket steakhouse for when you want to sink your teeth into sizzling, butter-topped beef. Get cosy in an elegant setting with warm chandelier lights and soft jazz in the background as you ease into your meal.
Slice into a Ribeye (S$80++ for 12 ounces, S$100 for 16 ounces) that’s bathed in butter and parsley. It is outstanding for being well-marbled and deliciously juicy when done medium rare. Their Sizzlin’ Blue Crab Cakes (S$35++) are two jumbo mounds for when you want some crab meat without the effort and mess of cracking crab shells. The drizzle of lemon butter lifts its intense flavours.
Pay S$25 for S$50, S$70 for S$100 cash vouchers through ChopeDeals.
