P. Bistro Cafe (Owen Road)

This French-style bistro and patisserie is set into a gorgeous row of heritage shophouses along Singapore’s Owen Road. P. Bistro’s Owen Road premises regularly play host to all sorts of events, from birthday celebrations to corporate functions. Guests love P. Bistro’s understated elegance, and the great selection of food and drink on offer. The menus are arranged with the maximum of simplicity – choose from salad, soup, or light bites to start, before heading on to a selection of pan-European and Asian fusion mains.

P. Bistro’s Owen Road kitchen serves up a concise selection of dishes that take their influences from Asian fusion and European cuisines – particularly the kind of dishes you might expect from a French bistro or an Italian trattoria. P. Bistro regularly updates its website with monthly specials, and on any given day guests at this Singapore restaurant and bistro might encounter such delicate dishes as the duck confit with crushed pumpkin, raspberry compote and thyme jus, the spanner crab, avocado and mango salad, or the Nonya dory served on banana leaf with jasmine rice, homemade achar and sunshine egg. These three dishes alone showcase P. Bistro’s fusion flair, but also their commitment to an ethos of culinary simplicity.

P. Bistro, in true French bistro style, is also just a good place to drop in for barista-brewed coffee or a hot chocolate and something sweet from their excellent patisserie selection. The pastries at P. Bistro’s Owen Road premises are baked fresh daily, so the chalkboards are constantly changing – drop in and you might encounter their mouthwatering dark French chocolate mousse cake with chestnut crèmeux and rum icing, or their millefeuille praline. Singapore diners looking for a touch of class combined with casual bistro dining are well advised to book a table at P. Bistro along Owen Road.
