Once a notorious red-light district, the present Keong Saik Road of today is well known for the boutique hotels and authentic eateries. Which brings us to today’s post, Ember Restaurant located within Hotel 1929.

However the seating space is rather limited so it may get a lil noisy and squeezy if the restaurant is fully packed. Continue reading
