New restaurants and cafes in September 2021

We welcome this September with wide-open arms – not just because it’s the birth month of our Libra and Virgo friends, but also because it’s a bustling one for the F&B scene. With the return of Shakey’s Pizza, the launch of Hello Kitty shabu shabu and a new romantic rooftop bistro, below are the best 20 new cafes and restaurants to check out this month:

7. Cherki – Surprise cocktails near the CBD

The Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre is full of surprises – after springing pop-up rooftop installation opon us earlier this year, the obscure CBD building now presents Cherki. Ready your taste buds for Peranakan dishes with Western influences, with starters like Chilli Beef Rendang Fries ($12) and mains such as Laksa Lobster Linguini ($27).

After hours, top it all up with artisanal cocktail Streetside Signature ($23), a chendol based bevvy concocted with dark rum and Nigori sake. Feeling brave? Challenge the bartender to create a surprise Bespoke Cocktail ($20-$28).

Cocktails – West Side Journey ($23) and Loquat Elixir ($24).
