Since it is Singapore, I have to mention a great Chinese junction. Li Bai serves some really great Chinese cuisines. Naturally, the place is booked most of the time but you can get a table if you book in advance. The place is famous for serving mouth-watering Dim Sum on Sundays. However, do bring your good score credit card along.

6. II Lido

This restaurant is Italian. It is located atop the Sentosa Golf Club. The food is really awesome (and expensive). The place offers great views of the golf club if you plan to eat in open air. Though, Singaporean climate can be hot sometimes, so think before eating outside.

Are you taking it to the next level?

These places sure take the New Year celebration to a whole new level. Almost all of them are booked on the day of Chinese New Year. So, make sure that you book in advance. This will hike the prices further. But when you are already paying up to $230 for a single meal, do 20-30 dollars matter much.
