Halia
PRICE:
Frommer's Highly Recommended

ADDRESS: 1 Cluny Rd
COUNTRY: Singapore
PHONE 1: 65/6476-6711
Most notable for its location within the Singapore Botanic Gardens, you really need to come to Halia for a daytime meal, either a weekend breakfast buffet, relaxing lunch, or weekday high tea, if you want to enjoy the lush greenery of the surroundings. Cuisine is contemporary fare, with ginger permeating quite a few of the recipes -- halia being "ginger" in Malay. The specialty of the house is the chunks of seafood stewed in Asian flavors of chili and lemon grass served over a bed of papardelle pasta. To get there, ask the taxi driver to take you along Tyersall Avenue and look for the HALIA signboard at the Tyersall Gate near the Ginger Garden.
