Just across from Novena Church is Masterpiece Bistro and Bar, a cosy restaurant that dishes out Italian fare at affordable prices. Bring a date and start the night by sharing the Char-grilled Octopus Carpaccio ($16) and the creamy Lobster Bisque ($14), which comes topped with caviar. For mains, order the Mushroom Risotto with Grilled Hokkaido Scallop ($22) — infused with a generous amount of truffle oil, mushroom lovers will love tucking into this! There are wine pairings for every dish. Refer to the menu for recommendations.
