Visited the outlet at 3pm and was greeted by a friendly server! I am surprised by the ice chai honey ginger tea as well as the muffin.

Dario, tucked next to more budget-friendly eateries like prata and nasi lemak, would not be your first choice for a dinner. However, Darioā€™s modest Italian restaurant serves wonderful handmade thin crust pizzas, pastas, and Italian desserts at reasonable costs.

The most basic ones have few toppings and are oven-baked while the more intricate pizzas with ham, salami, or multiple cheeses are baked in a wood- fired oven. Burratina arrives with a tasty, creamy ball of burrata cheese and savoury parma ham and arugula for an Italian meal.

Key Differentiators

  • Gastropub
  • Real Italian pizza
  • Pizza, Drink, & More

Customer Testimonial

hidden gem!! waitresses were super friendly and service was very fast. pizza was good, value for money (1 pizza can be shared within 2 people) would be good if they had more options for drinks tho :ā€) but i really liked the mint tea

Operating HoursThursday to Tuesday: 8AMā€“5PM

West Coast Market Square is home to a number of delicious roast meat stalls with long snaking queues during lunch and dinner hours. If you have to pick one of them, know that tender braised duck and flavourful gravy at He Ji is definitely worth the wait. Duck Rice Set Meal comes with braised duck, tau kwa and egg covered in a robust gravy sitting atop a mound of soy sauce-flavoured rice.

At Kway Chap, the rich herbal soup is complemented with a large portion of simmered pork belly and intestines that soak up the dark sauce nicely. Their home-made chilli isnā€™t to be missed! The hae bee hiam-based chilli paste is mixed with a watery, somewhat sour, and garlicky.

Operating HoursTuesday to Sunday: 6AMā€“8PM

Unlike other BCM stalls, Ah Hoe Mee Pok is run by a Japanese father-daughter team wearing mee pok turbans around their necks, as genuine Singaporeans would. Most of us are used to bak chor mee with an inadequate amount of pork or braised mushrooms, but the ones here are packed with so many goodies.

Traditional mee pok, or Japanese Fusion Mee Pok if youā€™re daring. You may choose between a miso or shoyu base for both soups and dry dishes, as well as slices of chashu!

Key Differentiators

  • Original Ah Hoe Mee Pok
  • Long time in the business
  • Generous portions

Customer Testimonial

Easily one of the mee pok in the West and probably in Singapore. Always a long queue closer to lunch, expect to wait at least for half an hour.

The mee pok was different from the rest, slightly thicker and more Q. It gave a nice bite when you chewed the noodles.

The prawn paste balls were another unusual find. It was sweet and tasty, goes really well the their chilli sauce!
