Stew Kuche
MENU: Stew Kuche offers a small size menu but there is a good mix of predominantly Western fare. The pork knuckles, sausages, and stews are ideal for sharing by two persons as the serving size is of German standard, while the selection of beers can keep the boys coming back for more.
AMBIANCE: The kopitiam that houses Stew Kuche is located in the maze of motorcycle and automobile repair shops; so, the industrial element in the surrounding could be an interesting scene to any observant guest. The kopitiam itself looks simple yet modern enough to attract casual customers. This place tends to get buzzy during its dinner hours. However, if you’re used to eating in hawker centres, you probably wouldn’t mind a bit of noise distraction at all.
AVERAGE PRICE/PAX: S$15
NOTE: Cash only
Stuttgart Blackforest Boutique S-Café
MENU: Stuttgart Blackforest Café’s menu is small but enough to satiate your cravings for typical southern food. Pork knuckle is available in two sizes; single or full servings (good for 4 persons).

Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant
MENU: Contrary to popular belief, German cuisine can be extensive, as demonstrated by the creative menu at Brotzeit. The restaurant offers dedicated menus for lunch and dinner, including beverages.

Vegans will find delight in the salads, vegan pizza, sides, and desserts, while meat lovers won’t need much convincing as platter options are available and perfect for sharing.
AMBIANCE: All Brotzeit locations in Singapore have a beer garden atmosphere. This makes each location a good place to catch up with friends over beer and pork knuckle. The Vivo City outlet is particularly known for its alfresco dining, as the restaurant sits by the sea overlooking Sentosa.

WELL-LOVED FLAVOURS
- Salted Mister Brown: This ice-cream is a dreamy blend of sweet and savoury flavours. Concocted from brown sugar, sea salt and crunchy brownie chunks, the salty caramel in this creation perfectly complements the sweet freshness, making it an all-time favourite.
- Lychee Martini: An amazing fruity flavor that has fresh lychee juice mixed with vodka. This refreshing ice-cream is one of the most popular choice in this ice-cream café.
- Surprising Coconut: An incredibly smooth delight that has real chunks of tender coconut flesh. A creative blend of fresh coconut water and flavourful ice-cream, it tastes a little piquant at first but soon tantalize the taste buds and leave you crave for the next refreshing mouthful.
