This famous eatery is the go-to restaurant for affordable, comfort food.

If you need an extensive list of choices that are wallet-friendly, this is the place for you!

2. The Bravery
This Muslim-owned cosy cafe is one of our favourites. Its no-signboard, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it location hides a precious secret: an amazing menu. Seriously, you can start from a pancake stack or big brekkie in the morning, then dive into burgers and rice bowls at lunch. Come dinnertime, feast on wagyu ribeye (with free-flow fries!), pan-seared salmon and the fantastic steak with sunny side eggs.

End it all off with bites of baklava.
