Jiang-Nan Chun Singapore

Jiang-Nan Chun sits on the second floor of 190 Orchard Blvd. It is a three-minute walk from the entrance of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, placing it just steps away from the retail bustle of ION Orchard.

The restaurant holds a Michelin star and serves a blend of classic and contemporary Chinese cuisine. The room runs smart and elegant, but the real utility here is the location. Most dining rooms in this part of the city are trapped inside the shopping malls, feeling like an extension of the concourse. Jiang-Nan Chun feels like an intentional departure from that noise. It is the better choice for anyone who wants the refinement of a high-end kitchen without the claustrophobia of the Orchard Road crowds outside.
