"Middle Eastern cuisine in Singapore isn’t as easy to come by as say Italian, Chinese, or Japanese, but that’s not to say we don’t have some great restaurants serving up divine dishes from locales like Turkey, Lebanon, and Iran. We love a good meze spread (small shared plates), shwarmas, and smoky grilled veggies and meats, so we set off on a mission to track down the best Middle Eastern restaurants in Singapore. These are nine of the most outstanding places we found where you can grab delish eats from the Mediterranean region and beyond. (Ranked in no particular order)
If you don’t mind splashing out a bit for an exquisite Middle Eastern meal, Shabestan is a good bet. This classy fine dining spot serves up Persian cuisine like rice dishes laced with saffron and dried fruits, fresh salads with zippy herbs and dressings, heart-warming stews, and char-grilled chicken, lamb, beef and seafood. If it’s not too hot outside, try to snag a seat on the patio next to the river." Urban Journey
