Dining Guide: Where to get your tasty treats (Sept 9 to 10)

.ELIA — BISTRO BY DAY, RESTAURANT BY NIGHT

.Elia’s three unique menus promise to showcase the best produce of each season — as a bistro by day and a restaurant by night. The Weekday Lunch Menu (available from Mondays to Thursdays, 11am to 4.30pm) consists of highlights such as the pancetta, a freshly made trenette cooked in brown butter and egg yolk completed with Italian bacon (S$15.50); and Jamon Iberico Grilled Cheese (S$16.50). The Brunch Menu (available on Fridays, Saturdays and public holidays, 10am to 4.30pm) includes comfort food selections such as the curious concoction of potatoes — roasted and mashed — that sit next to some crispy bacon (S$16); and the millennial bite du jour, Avocado Toast (S$12.50). In its restaurant iteration, the Dinner Menu consists of highlights such as Octopus with sauteed kale, caramelised chilli and macadamia nuts (S$26); and Wagyu mayura shortrib, arugula and onion jam (S$39). This dinner menu is available from Mondays to Saturdays and public holidays, 6.30pm to 10.30pm. Located at 10 Jiak Chuan Rd.
