This new Japanese-Peruvian restaurant is the latest international name in the dining scene to open in Singapore. And it certainly landed in style, occupying a massive 12,000 sqft space on the 52nd floor of Capital Tower. Sundown is where the magic happens – floor-to-ceiling windows offer unobstructed views of the sunset, cityscape, and come National Day, the stunning fireworks show. In the restaurant itself, a carnivalesque atmosphere fills the air, with live DJs, percussionists and even Samba dancers. You’ll get a mouthwatering mishmash of flavours here, with distinct Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian influences. You won’t go wrong when you order all-time favourites like the seared foie gras ($38) and kurobuta pork belly ($38). But in the spirit of National Day, why not take the opportunity to try SUSHISAMBA’s Singapore-exclusive items like the SAMBA Singapore Roll with Maine lobster, or the SAMBA Chilli Crab Roll with soft-shell crab?
By now, you would’ve started hearing the loud buzz of helicopters and planes going by every now and then, and that can only mean one thing – National Day and the annual National Day Parade are upon us. On August 9, our beloved nation turns a year closer to the big six zero. And restaurants and bars all over the island are busy picking up on the festivities by offering National Day meals and specials. If you haven’t gotten your plans sorted, here’s an idea: hit up one of these restaurants and bars for dinner or a drink, and enjoy a million-dollar view of the fireworks display while you’re at it.
