Wonderland Upside Down

Step into the experience: Step through the rabbit hole into a fantastical omakase journey at Wonderland Upside Down. This five-course dinner takes inspiration from the Alice in Wonderland tale — complete with playful décor, creative storytelling, and whimsical dishes. But this isn’t just a sit-down meal — you’ll physically travel through six immersive spaces, so come dressed for movement. It’s theatre meets dinner, and a chance to reconnect with your inner child. Family-friendly sessions for kids aged six and up are held on Sundays; other days are strictly for adults (18 and above). From $88.50 per adult. Pescatarian, no pork/lard, and alcohol-free options are available — simply include your dietary restrictions in the booking comments, and the team will do their best to accommodate.

Why it’s worth trying: A magical choice for themed celebrations or curious diners seeking a playful escape.

The Wizard's Brew

Step into the experience: Tucked inside a Trengganu Street shophouse, The Wizard’s Brew is Singapore’s first wizard-themed dessert bar. Whether you’re sipping fiery potions or nibbling magical tapas, every moment is designed to enchant. Dress up in wizard robes, pose for spellbinding photos, and let the in-house sorcerers cast a flavourful spell with each cocktail and treat. From $50 per person.

Breakfast in the Wild

Step into the experience: Enjoy breakfast alongside orangutans, sea lions, penguins, and more at Breakfast in the Wild, held at the Singapore Zoo. Beyond the photo ops, you’ll learn about animal conservation from the zoo’s keepers and feast on planet-friendly dishes prepared with sustainably sourced palm oil and wildlife-safe Owa Coffee from Indonesia. Animal appearances happen from 9.15am to 10am, so be sure to arrive early! $47 per adult, requires separate admission ticket to Singapore Zoo. All dishes are prepared without pork, lard, or beef — the latter omitted due to its higher environmental impact. Vegetarian options are also available.

Why it’s worth trying: A meaningful, family-friendly morning filled with close animal encounters and eco-conscious dining — great for nature lovers of all ages.
