Why we recommend it
True Blue Cuisine sits next door to the Peranakan Museum on Armenian Street and is run by Benjamin Seck, who treats Peranakan cooking as living heritage. The dining rooms double as a small showcase of his family's collection, with antique furniture, beadwork, wedding lanterns, embroidered kebayas and jewellery, and the restaurant holds a Bib Gourmand in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Singapore.
The kitchen cooks traditional Nyonya dishes and does not use pork or lard. Go with a group so you can share several dishes, and pair a meal with a visit to the museum next door. It closes on Sundays and between lunch and dinner service, so book ahead for dinner. Bras Basah and City Hall MRT stations are both within walking distance.
