Have a delectable iftar meal at these dining places, serving Ramadan set menus and à la carte buffet spreads

Unlike last year’s iftar feast which was confined in the comfort of our homes, the upcoming feast will be a merrier celebration as we’re allowed to dine out with family and friends—given that we adhere to the strict Covid-19 protocols implemented by the government. And, of course, the chefs are enticing us with a bevy of delicious Ramadan dinner sets (for dine-in and delivery) and extensive buffet spreads, served to your table à la carte style.

Just as the restaurant’s name implies in the Indonesian language, you’re welcome to break fast here with the Ramadan Special Menu. It consists of hearty favourites from Central Java—the likes of bakwan udang (pan-fried Indonesian fritter), opor ayam (braised chicken thigh curry) and semur jawa daging (beef stew cooked with fresh tomatoes, shallots, garlic, red chilli and sweet soy sauce).

Wash these down with curated mocktails. The fizzy Asam Spritz refreshes the palate with a mix of tamarind, Marquisa syrup, pineapple juice, Sprite Lemonade and lime citrus, while the Rosie’s Sangria comprising juicy strawberries and pisang susu (banana milk) syrup provides a sweet finish. Available from  April 13 to May 16. Book here.

4. Hilton Singapore

Gather your family for a delicious iftar feast at Hilton Singapore’s iftar pop-up buffet.  The chefs have prepared quite an extensive spread which consists of appetisers, timeless home-cooked dishes and local favourites, among others.  

You can start light by going for starters like Singapore popiah, mango salad and prawns or Singapore rojak. But if you want to dig in straight away to the classics, do so with the spiced beef rendang enriched with sambal chilli lala and petai or the equally pleasing Moroccan spicy chermoula baked sea bass. There is even a carving trolley where you can ask for unlimited servings of the beautifully cooked whole roasted Australian beef sirloin bathed in natural jus, and accompanied by roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables. Available from April 19 to May 19. Book here.

Here’s another restaurant to consider if you’re undecided on where to bring your family for an iftar meal, served as an à la carte buffet.

Meat lovers will be glad to know there’s also a carvery station here, and the spotlight is on the roasted leg of lamb served with the chef’s special sauce. Available from April 12 to May 16. Book here.
