Funan used to be associated with computers and IT accessories but today Funan Mall has become a dining destination. Though shoppers still head to Funan Mall for gaming machines, headphones and drones, most people go to the mall between North Bridge Road and Hill Street because it has an interesting range of restaurants, cafes and eateries for different tastes and budgets.
The interior of the new Funan mall looks like something out of a sci-fi movie, which is befitting the mall’s tech focus. The food outlets in the new Funan are spread out over the building but with the highest concentration in levels B2, B1 and 1. There are a number of new restaurants that opened recently, such as Keisuke Plus and Raffles Coffee & Toast. There are so many options. What to Eat at in Funan Mall? Steak or salad? Peranakan, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Mexican or something more exotic? Here are a few restaurants and F & B options to try.
