Craft Beer Festival 2016

Don’t miss the first ever craft beer festival, CRAFT Singapore.

Brioche has its origins in France, where a good amount of rich, golden butter gives it a distinct fragrance and cake-like quality. It is typically washed with egg for a glossy appearance and baked in a classic shape of a fluted bottom with a protruding top in a brioche pan, though there are other variations like braids, rings and mini buns. The soft, flaky texture makes it perfect for bread and butter pudding or French toast. Whether sweet, savoury or plain, here’s where to get the best of this delicious bread.

Best gin fizzes in Singapore

Drink to the New Year with this carbonated gin-based highball. The gin fizz, which originated in America, is the most well-known tipple from the fizz family and can be likened to a sparkling sour courtesy of its fresh, citrusy notes. Its popularity peaked in the late 19th and early 20th century, and gave rise to variations such as New Orleans’ Ramos gin fizz, named after its creator, and the sloe gin fizz, which uses the deep red spirit flavoured with blackthorn plums.

epicure reviews: Aura

What do you do when you’ve got stunning interiors, a tourist magnet of an address, and unbeatable views over the city? Aura’s chef-owner Beppe de Vito could’ve taken it easy, slapped up a couple of casual Italian plates and waited for the tills to ring. But he didn’t. Instead, he’s fashioned a timelessly elegant venue poised to become a dining destination in its own right.
