At the Brand New Clifford Pier
If there’s anything better than enjoying Singaporean hawker food, it’s savouring it in an iconic heritage site that continues to pay tribute to our glorious hawker culture. And we have just the place for you.
Meet The Clifford Pier (formerly occupied by One on the Bund), The Fullerton Bay Hotel’s brand new all-day dining destination featuring a carefully tailored menu of Singapore delicacies.
Once the landing point of Singapore’s forefathers, saying that Clifford Pier played a momentous role in Singapore’s history is no exaggeration. Since it opened in 1933, the car park at the entrance of the then-bustling pier transformed into a hawker centre at night, until the end of the 1960s. Now restored and revamped, guests can expect a multi-sensory dining experience at Clifford Pier, in a setting steeped in old-world glamour with stunning, contemporary interiors by design maestro Andre Fu.
Offering familiar local delights and reinterpretations of local specialties, signature dishes include Soup Kambing (mutton soup cooked with traditional spices) and Kueh Pie Tee (crispy shells filled with shredded fragrant turnips, prawns and fresh herbs). Try The Clifford Pier’s luxe version of Kong Bak Bao, sweet soy braised pork belly with steamed buns, chilli, and cilantro, in which tender slabs of Iberico pork belly are used.
No Singaporean menu is complete without a flavourful bowl of laksa, and The Clifford Pier version comes with rice vermicelli, quail eggs, bean curd puffs, and prawns in a spicy coconut gravy. But what got us most excited were the two-generation Rickshaw Noodles! This dish comes in two servings: the Chef de Cuisine’s modern take on this classic noodle soup and his grandfather’s version of the noodles that were once sold at the pier.
Our recommendation? Visit The Clifford Pier in the evening and sip delicious handcrafted cocktails featuring myriad Asian ingredients on the alfresco terrace. Take in the magnificent views of Marina Bay while you indulge in a little heritage and history.
