Frommer's Exceptional

Beautiful ambience is created in this shophouse restaurant remodeled in contemporary elegance, with alfresco dining and a wine bar. At the time of writing this restaurant was closed for renovations, so expect it to be reopened and ultra swank by the time you arrive. The Italian fare features fresh seafood in classic and modern recipes, with main courses prepared to perfection. No doubt the entire city will be excited to sample the new menu in the new digs, so make your reservations early. For the quality of food and service, the prices can't be beat. The owners have other branches that are equally satisfying: Da Paolo il Ristorante (80 Club St., also in Chinatown; tel. 65/6224-7081), Da Paolo il Giardino (501 Bukit Timah Rd., #01-05 Cluny Court, beside the Singapore Botanic Gardens; tel. 65/6463-9628) and Da Paolo la Terrazza (44 Jalan Merah Saga, #01-56, at Chip Bee Gardens in Holland Village; tel. 65/6476-1332).
