There is just something intuitive about our love for the sea which always has us longing for a beach holiday or a weekend spent basking in the warm sun and cool sea waters. Perhaps it is because of the comfort that we draw from looking out at the deep blue ocean or maybe we just need a break from the grunge of city life.

And if you have a passion for food, a meal by the waters should greatly appeal to you. Aside from being an extremely romantic place to share a meal with your partner, a view of the waterfront would be a fantastic way for you to engage in deep conversations about life over a meal.

Here are 19 Stunning Waterfront Restaurants In Singapore That Bae Will Love.

Bringing the best of both Eastern and Western Mediterranean cuisine in a summer beach setting right smack in the city might sound a little far-fetched, but Summerlong at Robertson Quay has done just that.

The open kitchen, helmed by Chef Justin Hammond of Neon Pigeon, serves up a mix of snacks and mains that include their Lemon & Garlic hummus with Lebanese Minced Lamb and their stellar Chargrilled Octopus, Parsnip, Garlic, Honey dish which diners constantly rave about.

With its decorative influences stemming from the beaches of the Mediterranean, Summerlong perfectly encapsulates a summer seaside vibe, giving diners the experience of those long summer days and cool vibrant nights.

This cosy restaurant features an eclectic mix of cooking styles and dishes from the Mediterranean, so what you get is a whole myriad of fresh, bold and differing flavour profiles, all intermingling and interchanging to create dishes that will really interest and excite.

A good starter to consider is their Braised Lamb Shank In Pastry, Grilled Apricots, Spiced Lentils.

This unassuming snack might strike the common eye as nothing more than an overpriced spring roll, but upon taking that first bite, what you will experience is something a lot more impressive.

Tender melt-in-your-mouth lamb shank that has clearly had hours of braising is stuffed into a crispy pastry. But aromatic and tasty as it was, what really made this dish tick was the grilled apricots which provided a sweet caramel contrast to the robust lamb.

Without a second thought, we would most certainly say that their Chargrilled Octopus, Parsnip, Garlic, Honey simply was our ultimate favourite because the balance between flavours and textures were struck beautifully.

The honey-glazed octopus was grilled to perfection, exuding a deep smokiness and a perfectly caramelised exterior. The parsnips were tender and sweet, which played off the brininess of the chargrilled octopus really well, but the addition of pickled onions was what rounded this dish off for us—it provided the perfect amount of tartness to cut through the rich vibrant flavours.

Where #foodporn is concerned, none other can beat the sheer rustic beauty of the Smoked Pork Ribs, Pomegranate Glaze, Dukkah Crust. Summerlong took it to a whole new level by injecting influences from Egypt with their Dukkah Crust, which consists of a mixture of herbs, nuts, and spices—giving it a nice colourful crust and subtle herbaceous notes.

The Smoked Pork Ribs, Pomegranate Glaze, Dukkah Crust is truly a work of art—both aesthetically and flavour-wise. The pork ribs hold perfectly intact but once you bite into them you would realise just how soft and pull-apart-tender they are.

Their soft serve yoghurt comes in two flavours—original and chocolate—and includes a myriad of toppings ranging from chocolate to candy and even healthier alternatives like granola and fruit. A perfect way to end any meal, this dessert is both luscious and luxurious but the beauty is in creating your own decadent masterpiece yourself.

While we might be living in one of the world’s most expensive cities, dining in a romantic restaurant does not necessary mean we have to break the bank.

It is such a shame that many Singaporeans have the misconception that a meal at a romantic restaurant would be an insanely costly experience. While that might be the case for most celebrity restaurants, there are actually a handful of other romantic cafes and bistros that will prove your mindset wrong.

Dining at a romantic restaurant is possible with a low budget—all you need to do is search harder! The struggle is real for many when it comes to picking a destination with an intimate ambience, which is why we have embarked on an arduous search for restaurants in Singapore that not only exude romantic vibes but also feature wallet-friendly menus too.

Here is our guide to Affordable Romantic Restaurants in Singapore with Most Main Courses under S$25 (exclusive of any prevailing service charges and taxes). A good number of these featured destinations are conveniently located in the CBD.

At Zaffron Kitchen, you can enjoy authentic Northern and Southern Indian cuisine in a chic and stylish setting. With air-con too! No more perspiring while downing your naan with teh tarik.

We sampled many dishes, and we really enjoyed the Chef Sampler for 2 (S$12) and Kashmiri Naan (S$5.50) – a sweet version with dried berries. But the star of the show has to be the very creamy and tangy Butter Chicken. And if you need your wines, you’d be happy to know that Zaffron is also a well-stocked gastro bar.

#2 EXPLORE GARDENS BY THE BAY

A large part of Gardens By The Bay is free and if you still have not been there, you absolutely must.

There are also endless photo spots here; capture your loving moments away to remember your special day out!

#3 FLY KITES AT MARINA BARRAGE

Yes, it is cliche but we love it. Just being worry-free and flying a kite, with a view of Marina Bay, sounds like the perfect day for us. Unadulterated, without a care about the world. Why not have a picnic while you are at it too?

#4 GO FOR AN EXHIBITION AT ARTSCIENCE MUSEUM

Exhibitions are usually free of charge here, with an exception of a few. And Artscience Museum always has the best exhibitions.

#5 HAVE A FUN DAY AT THE BEACH

Singapore may not have the best beaches in Asia, but we sure have very clean ones. You can go for a tan, have a picnic, take a dip or play a game of beach volleyball. Whatever it is, you and your partner can take the time to let loose and just have fun.

#6 RAIL CORRIDOR – SINGAPORE’S VERY OWN VERSION OF NEW YORK’S HIGH LINE

#7 HAVE A PICNIC AT SINGAPORE BOTANIC GARDENS

This gorgeous UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts a beautiful and huge garden with a stunning Swan Lake. And it is one of the best spots in Singapore to have a picnic at! Pack along some cupcakes, strawberries, cookies and champagne. To make things sweeter, prepare a secret surprise dish for each other! It can be your lover’s favourite snack, or his/her craving.

#8 ROMANTIC WALKS AT MARINA SOUTH PIER

Marina South Pier is where ships dock and the ferries stop at. The huge stretch of coastline is ideal for a quiet, romantic walk with your lover. Take a breather from your hectic work life and enjoy the lovely, uninterrupted stroll.

#9 VISIT ANIMALS AT SPCA

Are you both animal lovers? What better way to spend Valentine’s Day than to use your time on rescued animals? Caring for furry darlings will surely make your Valentine’s Day more meaningful!

#10 VISIT NATIONAL GALLERY SINGAPORE

The National Gallery Singapore has only opened its doors to the world last year, but they are fast becoming a favourite spot among Singaporeans and tourists alike. If you haven’t set foot in the new compound, perhaps this could be your answer to Valentine’s Day?

Read: Guide to National Gallery Singapore and What You Can Expect.

Why not bring your partner for a staycation? Here are 15 Romantic Staycation Ideas in Singapore To Celebrate Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day is coming and if you are always looking for ways to break your usual dating routine(s) with your partner, we might just have the answer for you. Truth to be told, it can be easier than you think. Whenever you see a fun activity that your friends shared on their social media, or from a drama serial, or anything at all – note them down on your mobile phone.

Another easy method is just to recall the things you used to love to do (before life caught up on you). Was it singing karaoke with your buddies? Having a friendly match of snooker? Or simply staying at home playing board games? Revisit them.

There are so many possibilities and even more ways to keep the love alive. Here, we share with you some Valentine’s Day Date Ideas – 9 Fun Activities & Thrilling Things to Do in Singapore.

#1 GAME NIGHT FOR 2

By game, we mean board games, videos games and so much more. No grown adult can get over the thrill of a simple game like Jenga or Monopoly. But of course, you can always snuggle up in bed and fight zombies on your Xbox, too!

#2 BAR HOP

Instead of stationing yourself at one location, go to a couple and try their various signature cocktails. Cocktails are getting more and more love and attention here in Singapore, and everywhere around the world, there are a ton of really interesting flavours awaiting your discovery.

Read: 8 Interesting Cocktails with a local twist you should try in Singapore.

#3 TAKE A TOUR AROUND THE ISLAND

You can rent a motorcycle (if you can ride) or simply grab a bicycle and go for a spin. There are several park connectors for those who are going by bicycles, and for the adventurous ones who are going on a motorcycle, take a route that you normally wouldn’t and navigate your ways together as a couple!

#4 DO VOLUNTEER WORK TOGETHER

Volunteers are always needed in many non-profit organisations. Research online beforehand to check out which organisation needs your help, or if there are any campaigns over the weekend that still requires manpower. Give back to the society together in the company of your loved one; how meaningful!

#5 GO FOR DANCE CLASSES

Venture out of your comfort zone and try something you wouldn’t normally do. Sign up for dance classes; ballroom dancing is a good one to start on. This dancesport is both beautiful and intimate, and requires much communication and coordination. That should pretty much strengthen you as a couple, and we can pretty much guarantee that you will have a “ball” of time here.

7. REVISIT YOUR CHILDHOOD

Think something as simple as building a lego structure or making a kite from scratch and getting it up in the sky. You would not know the absolute excitement of something as carefree and simple as this, until you actually do it with your partner! The simplest joy that you grew up with will always be a bittersweet happiness to relish.

#6 GO TO AN ESCAPE ROOM

Escape rooms are popping up everywhere. Book a time slot and get ‘trapped’ in a room together with your partner. This simple game will have you working together through communication, and it will certainly strengthen your relationship while learning new attributes about each other.

8. PLAN A PICNIC

Not a lavish sit-down dinner kind of couple? You aren’t the only one! Plan a picnic instead. Take the chance to whip up dishes with love for each other, then find a spot in Singapore that bears symbolic meaning to your relationship. Perhaps it is the park where you first kissed, or the Barrage where you first flew a kite together?

8. HIT THE BEACH

When was the last time you took a leisurely stroll along the sandy shores and stop to listen to the sounds of the waves crashing? The beach is somewhere so relaxing, and it calms all senses. Take your lover’s hand, kick off your shoes, and just frolic under the sun at the beach! The best things in life are free like that.
