Restaurant Euphoria

The Restaurant Euphoria is ranked first in our list of the top thirteen best restaurants in Singapore. Vegetables frequently play a supporting position on the menu, serving as garnishes, side dishes, or as a basis to complement other meats and fish. However, at Restaurant Euphoria, the often-overlooked ingredient takes center stage.

It's a style brought over from owner-chef Jason Tan's previous tenure at the one-Michelin-starred Corner House. There, he concentrated on Gastro-Botanica, a phrase he developed to describe his love of botanical elements such as vegetables, fruits, herbs, spices, and even flowers.

And now that he has his own restaurant, the produce-first philosophy is in full bloom. It all starts with an odd source of inspiration: onion, which peeks through in both edible and physical ways. Coasters and dishes are shaped to look like bulbous vegetables (created in-house by Jason's partner, Arissa Wong), wall themes hint at onion scales, and even the chandelier is an abstract representation of sliced allium.

Other excellent details can be found throughout the meal. Carrots are served in the most beautiful way conceivable in a plate of Maine lobster; bomba rice, a combination between paella and clay pot rice, is a fascinating play on textures and cultures; and a serving of lamb neck is enhanced by an elegant Damascus steel knife hand-forged by a sword maker. Desserts, too, aren't your typical sweet ends. Goma and celery, maize and chocolate, and mochi with bandung are all newly discovered combos that will have you excited to leave the restaurant.
