Raffles City's best food ranges from Din Tai Fung's xiao long bao and Michelin-recognised Putien to new 2026 arrivals Sio Pasta, Maison Yoshoku and Unagi Yondaime Kikukawa, all inside Raffles City Shopping Centre directly above City Hall MRT. Prices run from around $6 for food-court noodles and roast meats on level 3 to $30-$50++ for Japanese specialists such as Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu. Most quick meals and the halal options (Poulet, WOK HEY, XW Plus Western Grill) are in the basement, while level 1 holds the coffee and dessert stops. Popular restaurants queue at weekday lunch from office crowds, so arrive before noon or after 1:30pm.
