CHIJMES, the historic 160-year-old convent-turned-lifestyle destination, embarked on a major facelift last year, and it’s now more romantic than ever. With the lowering of cloister walls along Victoria Street, the elegant Gothic architecture of the building is now more visible from the street. The perfectly manicured French courtyard and tranquil setting makes dining within the beautiful premises feel rather special – in fact, we can hardly think of anywhere else better to go this Valentine’s Day and date nights.
What’s more, there’s a host of new and exciting dining options to look forward to at the revitalised CHIJMES. For Japanese food lovers, On-Yasai is opening first outlet out of Japan featuring shabu shabu concept. Wine lovers will be delighted by Paprika & Cumin’s comprehensive range of draught, bottled beers, spirits, single malts and over 200 wine labels. The largest casual-dining chain from America, Applebee’s Neighbourhood Grill & Bar, is set to attract diners in Singapore with its fun and family-friendly atmosphere.
