Ki-sho
A kappo counter for 11 in a black-and-white bungalow on Scotts Road: simmering, grilling and aged sashimi from a chef who once cooked for the Japanese ambassador. Lunch is the way in.
- Where: Orchard

Where to eat in Orchard
The 6 places to eat we list in Orchard: 5 restaurants and 1 café. Hours, prices and how to get there are on each page.
Tentsuru
An omakase counter at The St. Regis that fries instead of slicing: deep-fried sea urchin, A5 wagyu with truffle. Ask for a middle seat; the ends see little of the frying.
- Where: Orchard
- Price: S$60 and above
Ginza Sushi-Ichi
A Tokyo sushi counter at the top of Orchard Road: one Michelin star, a 300-year-old cypress counter and Hicho bluefin. Go at lunch, the gentlest way into starred sushi.
- Where: Orchard
- Price: S$60 and above
Tanica
Fysh and its disco brunch are gone. The EDITION’s leafy dining room now cooks on a wok and a charcoal grill; the sets are the sensible way in.
- Where: Orchard
- Price: S$60 and above
Ao
Esora's chef, off the leash: all-day sharing plates behind Orchard Road, truffle mochi rice stuffed into chicken wings and a terrace where dogs are welcome. Kappo precision without the hush.
- Where: Orchard
- Price: S$30–60
Killiney Kopitiam (Killiney Road)
The first Killiney Kopitiam, still trading on the road that named it, a short walk from Somerset. Come for an early kaya toast and the backstory; the menu is the one the branches serve.
- Where: Orchard
- Price: Under S$30
