Binomio

Highlights:

An interesting blend of casual tapas bar and fine dining restaurant: This unique two-in-one combination is a total knock-out. Both sections have their own dazzling menus. If you want to sample a bit of everything, sit at the tapas bar in front. Want a more formal dining experience? Head to the elegant dining room at the back. And nothing can prevent you from enjoying both places in one visit.
Tapas bar with varieties of scrumptious Spanish bites: Binomio’s tapas bar is really popular among trendy people for its lively atmosphere and fabulous variety of appetizers. There are more than 30 delicious tapas dishes on offer. While they are equally good, the mushroom croquettes are a true standout.
Authentic paella at its finest: When it comes to paella, Binomio gives you a real taste without flying to Spain. Try the classical chicken and seafood paella or the famous squid ink paella with clams and calamari. Delicious, moist, and fragrant.
Set lunch menu at S$47 is a good value for money: An ideal place for business lunches where an elegant setting and good service complement the food perfectly. At this price, you will have a three-course meal (starter, main, and dessert) with coffee or tea. And those items are some of the beautiful ones you can see on its a la carte menus.

Esquina

Highlights:

Haute-cuisine tapas: At Esquina, the tapas look exceptionally creative with the way the chefs have prepared them. You can clearly see the high level of cooking done to those bite-size tapas dishes, and this alone is the remarkable highlight that sets Esquina apart from other tapas bars in the country.
Bespoke set lunch and dinner menus: As Esquina does have a variety of dinner and lunch set menus, you will have lots of options to explore. In fact, you could have a taste of certain dishes that are not available on a la carte or other pre-fixed menus. For example, a bunch of canapes is only made ready upon the arrival of supperclub diners. With this, you could say that each menu at Esquina is custom-made in accordance with the appetite of its customers.
Watch the chefs in action: Marvel at the chefs and cooks from the open-kitchen bar as they work wonders on your food. At the bar, there is enough space between the chefs and the diners to encourage interaction and camaraderie, especially if ever you are curious to know their secrets to make exceptional tapas dishes. The chefs would also cater to special requests like creating a vegetarian version of the Spanish breakfast.
Private, quiet, and elegant dining room upstairs: Esquina 2.0, that is. Located upstairs of the restaurant, you can get a hold of this lovely place and try its bespoke tasting menus by reserving a private dinner. It is capable of seating 25 persons and is arranged with a long dining table, which definitely calls for a cozy feast.

FOC

Highlights:

A conceptual restaurant, the brainchild of Michelin Star Chef: FOC started in 2014 when Michelin Star Chef Nandu Jubany combined forces with local fans of Spanish, particularly, Barcelonian food.
Open kitchen and bar for an immersive dining experience: The restaurant’s lively open kitchen and bar create a vibrant, buzzing atmosphere that enthralls diners. You can see the chefs putting in the work and cooking dishes right in front of you.
Eclectic dishes with innovative, picture-worthy plating: The restaurant boasts a diverse menu with creative dishes plated gorgeously with incredible attention to detail. They serve some of the best-looking tapas you’ll find anywhere. Every plate is super Instagrammable!
Designer cocktails celebrating Catalonian produce: Tapas are incomplete without drinks and FOC does it right. To complement its Catalonian-inspired dishes, it provides special house blends using the same flavors as the produce from the Spanish region. It’s also a celebration of the cocktail culture of Barcelona.

You can also enjoy dishes from their secret menu that are often daring and experimental. These dishes may just be the perfect choice for adventurous foodies.
