The Blue Ginger

I enjoyed my time here! We had a big group setting of about more than 10 pax. Every single dish that we ordered tasted great. Even for me personally, I’m not a big fan of Buah Keluak. But it’s well done here and I enjoyed the dish. The kueh pie tee was freshly made! So the shell was still crisp and the filling was still warm. The rendang was soft and fall apart tender. Also maybe cause we went in the evening. Not too sure if it’s the same if you went there for lunch. As I’ve been to some establishments where rendang at night usually taste better than the afternoon For the chap Chye, it was well balanced and not overly sweet

Fantastic restaurant serving authentic peranaken food in Singapore City center. Recognized in the Michelin Guide Singapore and with a Bib Gourmand designation, this restaurant serves delicious food in a warm ambience in a trendy locale. Service was friendly and attentive. The decor is sweet and nostalgic. The food menu has great options for meat, poultry, seafood and vegetable dishes. Highly recommend making this a stop on your Singapore journey.

I had wanted to try this place for years because it has been on the Michelin bib gourmand list, but unfortunately, the food quality is far below expectations. The service and atmosphere were good, but the food quality was surprisingly bad for a restaurant standard. The meat was bland and tasteless. Five of us ordered four different desserts, and every single one was disappointing. Honestly, this made me question the standard of Michelin Singapore’s recommendations.

Amazing Taste, Premium Price Tag We tried the Ayam Buah Keluak ($38) and Chap Chye ($22) at The Blue Ginger, and you are certainly paying a premium here. The chicken was absolutely fantastic—tender, melt-in-your-mouth perfection with a sauce that hit the right savory notes without being overly salty. However, the portion size of the chicken is pathetically small for $38, even factoring in the town location. The Chap Chye did not disappoint either; the vegetables had a wonderfully delicate, cooked-down texture, and a subtle kick of spice added a great depth of flavor. Overall, it's an incredibly tasty meal, provided you're willing to stomach the steep prices.

Highly Recommended! 🌟 Had a wonderful dining experience at this Nyonya restaurant! The food was delicious, authentic, and full of flavour, but what really made our visit memorable was the exceptional service. A special shoutout to Mr Lee and Zoe — both were incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional throughout our meal. They were very helpful with the recommendations and made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. Their warm and thoughtful service really made us feel welcomed. Great food + amazing service = definitely a place I would come back to! Highly recommended! ❤️

I think this restaurant serves some of the best Peranakan cuisine. Every dish is incredibly delicious. It's spicy, flavorful, and tender. The aftertaste is pleasant, and although it looks greasy, it's not. Rice refills are available. The restaurant isn't large, but it has a second floor, and I often go there with loved ones for special occasions. Reservations are recommended.

An overrated Michelin-starred restaurant, not worth visiting. I went there today because of a video recommendation by Joeman. I found hair in my Kerabu Laksa. After notifying the waiter, all I got was: "Do you want it replaced?" Shouldn't the most basic response be an apology, an immediate replacement, and then discussion of compensation (at least an expression of apology)? For a Michelin-starred restaurant, this is a complete disregard for food safety. The male waiter (manager?) was indifferent from beginning to end. Charging a 10% service charge for this kind of service is unreasonable. - Satay Babi ($26) and Tauhu Nonya Style ($12) were okay. (Pork slices and fried tofu) The sauce on the fried tofu didn't blend well with the tofu itself, so it wasn't flavorful. The sauce itself was quite good. NT$295. The pork slices were good, but not good value for money. A small portion cost NT$637. The dry laksa was very oily towards the end. By the way, they force you to eat side dishes and sauces after you're seated, charging SGD 3 per person, regardless of whether you want them or not.
