What to do this weekend in Singapore: 12-14 June

From a haunting exploration of love to a candid oral history of queer women in Singapore, peruse all the events not to be missed this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, below.

Get your horror fix with a screening of Obsession at Filmhouse

On Friday night: If the internet’s recent obsession with Obsession has piqued your interest, there’s no better way to experience it than on the big screen. The indie horror film from YouTuber-turned-director Curry Barker opened to unprecedented box office success, taking the classic Monkey’s Paw tale a step further to explore what happens when a deep, long-seated desire is granted at a terrible and ironic cost. In this case, seemingly ‘nice guy’ Bear makes a wish with the unassuming, mystical ‘One Wish Willow’ to get his longtime friend and crush, Nikki, to love him more than anyone else in the world. But as expected, things take a twisted turn when Nikki starts liking him a little too much. If you’re craving a dose of horror, this deliciously unsettling exploration of love set against a supernatural backdrop is sure to serve up goosebumps at every turn.

Obsession is now screening at Filmhouse.

Swing by New Bahru’s newly opened Factory Block for the latest in food, fashion, lifestyle and more

On Saturday afternoon: Over the last two years, New Bahru has grown to be a household name in buzzy weekend outings. There’s a little bit of everything for everyone to enjoy, whether you’re on your own, or with friends and family. If you somehow feel like the expansive property wasn’t enough to satisfy your retail cravings, you’re in for a treat: the recent opening of New Bahru’s Factory Block upholds their reputation for offering the very latest in food, fashion, lifestyle and more. On the first floor, popular fashion label Beams stands ready to transport you to a microcosm of American style interpreted through a distinctly Japanese lens. If you want to retrofit more than your wardrobe, head to Stacked Store and enjoy a one-stop shop for all-things-homeware, from the whimsical to the trendy. Of course, no locale in Singapore would be complete without an ample array of food and beverage options and in that regard, the Factory Block delivers. Besides cult favourite Dumpling Darlings just opposite Beams, the second floor’s trendy food court is where the new building really shines, with a host of restaurants taking up residence and slinging local favourites. At Laifaba, indulge in hearty, wood-fired wanton mee. Swing by next door and take in all the casual Italian cuisine your heart desires at Fico. Or head to Orh Gao Peh Gao: a cosy coffee shop and taproom all in one package.

Factory Block, New Bahru, 58 Kim Yam Rd, Singapore 239359

Step into the lives of Singapore’s queer women through Girls Girls Girls

On Sunday night: Queer women are all-too-often overlooked in mainstream culture, especially in Singapore, but Girls Girls Girls is here to change that. Presented by Wild Rice for Pride Month, this verbatim theatre production draws from the lived experiences of queer women from diverse backgrounds in Singapore, including queer elders, mothers, performers and athletes. Through a vibrant tapestry of true stories, the play explores identity, visibility, chosen family and community, providing an intimate look at the lives of local queer women which we rarely see play out on stage.

Past Events

Lounge in style at French fusion restaurant, Les Ducs

On Friday night: The Ann Siang Hill area is known for its plethora of food and beverage options. If you want to have your cake and eat it too, though—complete with that quintessentially French joie de vivre—simply look to what Louis Pacquelin has to offer. The chef owner of Les Ducs and Madame Claude runs two floors of a shophouse dedicated to bringing the heights of fine dining down to comforting ground. Step into Les Ducs on the first floor and enjoy their brand new spring menu full of heady, hearty French fusion, which is a win right out the gate. After all, you can’t go wrong with starters like the Sandwich Merguez—a meaty lamb sausage bao stuffed with smooth Comté cheese and zesty mustard and relish—and the Croque Prata—a local delicacy given the classic Croque Madame treatment, complete with a healthy dose of truffle. If the popular main Bouillabaisse is a briny bridge too far, the Lobster Rigatoni has more than enough surface area to capture all the savoury flavours of its sauce and transport you straight to the French countryside. Not to be missed is the Fondant Au Chocolat dessert, accompanied by coffee crème anglaise and vanilla ice cream—not too sweet and with just the right amount of dense chew. Afterwards, head upstairs to Madame Claude, which has your best night cap interests at heart. Here, the Valerie is truly special: Calvados brandy, tastefully layered with chrysanthemum vermouth made in-house and an electric infusion of chilli padi.

Les Ducs, 8 Ann Siang Hill, Singapore 069788

Savour a four-hands dialogue between Cassia and Michelin-starred Wild Yeast

Bringing together the bright, coastal flavours of Taizhou cuisine and the depth of Cantonese gastronomy, the menu promises a compelling dialogue between two culinary traditions. Highlights include braised spiny lobster in Taizhou ginger sauce, huadiao-steamed egg custard, and seaweed jelly paired with yangyan green tea panna cotta.

At the heart of Wild Yeast’s Chef Xu’s contemporary approach is ultimately heritage: drawing on time-honoured fermentation techniques to develop dishes that honour the past while looking firmly to the future.

Immerse yourself in the experimental sound and sculpture work of BIG BIG small small at SOTA

On Sunday night: Music, sculpture and spoken word converge in BIG BIG small small, a new work-in-progress presentation by performer Joanna Dong, composer Chok Kerong and artist Dawn Ng. Set in a black box theatre, the 40-minute soundscape invites audiences to reflect on what it means to be a tiny fleck in the vast cosmos while containing a world within oneself. The intimate performance, capped at 50 audience members per session, unfolds in a darkened sculptural landscape with stirring English and Mandarin compositions that contemplate our relationships with others, the universe and ourselves. As the weekend draws to a close, BIG BIG small small offers a rare invitation to introspection and existential reflection.

On Sunday night: Singapore’s first Sicilian-Neopolitan destination has a new menu calling your name—a two-fold culinary ‘love letter’ to founder Egon Marzaioli’s hometown of Naples and the city where his concept took root, Sydney. Since opening, Fortuna Trattoria has been a staple source of la dolce vita in the heart of Tanjong Pagar, and its refreshed offerings carry the torch of that tradition forward with pride. Look to the briny savour of the Mussels Croquette or The Octopus to kickstart your night, before taking a left turn to the Maccheroni with Four Smoked Cheese—pure mac ‘n’ cheese perfection. No Italian joint would be complete without pizza, though, and their Pumpkin Feast Pizza is a delightful embodiment of the establishment’s pan-coastal vision, marrying roasted butternut squash with gorgonzola. If you have space for The ‘Sicilian Snap’ Service, you won’t be disappointed: this fried Ciambella Napoletana cake is stuffed with Nutella cream and topped with toasted walnuts.

Fortuna Trattoria, 7 Craig Rd, Singapore 089667

Stream Olivia Rodrigo’s newest single the cure

On Friday night: The next single of the pop princess’s highly-anticipated album you seem so pretty for a girl so in love is here. Touted as Rodrigo’s “favourite song on the album”, one of her favourite tracks ever created and dubbed as the emotional thesis of her upcoming record. Suffice to say: it is already primed for repeat listens.

Stream the cure on Spotify.

Enjoy a slower pace of life at the farmer’s market at Temasek Shophouse

On Saturday afternoon: Fresh produce, eco-conscious brands and a brand-new urban farm—Temasek Shophouse’s farmer’s market is returning for its second edition this weekend. Held in partnership with City Sprouts, the event brings together local grocers, sustainable labels and community-led initiatives championing greener ways of living.

Alongside the market, visitors can also explore Temasek Shophouse’s newly unveiled community farm through guided tours, workshops and children’s activities running throughout the day. Activities range from honey extraction and tasting sessions to incense and candle making, alongside a community brew experience and even a winter melon cutting auction. Consider this your invitation to slow down, reconnect and spend the afternoon in good company. 

Temasek Shophouse, 28 Orchard Rd, Singapore 238832

Lose yourself in Anne Hathaway’s gripping Mother Mary

On Saturday night: The latest entry in Anne Hathaway’s stacked film run is here. The musical psychological thriller casts Hathaway as a former A-lister and pop icon on the brink of a comeback, pushing the darker undercurrents of fame, obsession and celebrity into supernatural territory. Blurring the lines between celebrity satire and fever dream, the film leans fully into the spectacle of modern stardom—with a soundtrack featuring some of today’s most critical pop voices: FKA twigs, who also stars in the film; Charli XCX; and Jack Antonoff. 

Mother Mary is now screening at Shaw Theatres

Indulge in a limited-time chef collaboration at Cloudfields

On Sunday afternoon: It’s off the beaten path, but wholly worth the trip. At Cloudfields, community and cuisine are given a fresh coat of paint, embodied in both the restaurant’s design aesthetic and its latest chef collaboration. Through June, chef Takeshi Arashi, culinary director of Cloud Restaurant Group, graces the menu with exquisite dishes that bring the adage ‘seeing is believing’ to life. Oyakodon like you’ve never experienced before: the Shiso Linguine is perfectly al dente and tossed in a savoury blend of egg and dashi, alongside crunchy asparagus, earthy shiso leaf and a generous topping of crispy karaage. Of course, no trip to Cloudfields is complete without a serving (or two) of their signature, utterly decadent Cacio e Pepe fries, but for after? Chef Arashi’s Roasted Hour is, quite possibly, the endgame of cheesecakes—basque-style, packed with cream cheese and hojicha, and accompanied by a moreish apple sauce and dollop of hojicha-dusted whipping cream on the side.

Cloudfields, 313 Outram Rd, Level 2 Tan Boon Liat Building, Singapore 169073

Support the Lasalle’s graduate collection 

On Sunday night: Following last week’s buzzy Graduate Fashion Show—staged inside the yet-to-open Cantonment MRT station—all eyes are now on the next generation of designers. Open to the public this weekend, the showcase offers the opportunity to slow down and take in the details that may have been missed the first time round: intricate beading, textile manipulation, hand-finished construction and the references shaping each point of view. Spread across Lasalle’s McNally campus, the exhibition places the spotlight firmly on the next wave of Singapore fashion talents.

Grab a slice of the exclusive Anto x Fiato pizza collab

On Saturday night: Two of Asia’s most lauded pizzerias are joining forces. Titled Origini, the collaboration pizza balances a light friarielli cream base with sausage, generous flakes of pecorino and lemon zest—a combination that somehow feels both indulgent and remarkably fresh. Available at Anto Pizza e Aperitivi until the end of July, the slice is the work of chef Salvatore “Sasà” Fiata of Hong Kong’s Fiata and chef Antonio Brancato of Singapore’s own Anto. Our top tip? Complete your evening with the house sgroppino: a take on the classic Italian sweet treat that combines Prosecco, sorbet and a hit of lemon zest for something surprisingly layered yet feather-light, with just enough punch to keep things interesting.That’s not all: Fiata’s Provola e Pepe—named Pizza of the Year in Asia Pacific in 2024—will be enjoying a limited edition run at Anto, so don’t miss it.

Sit in your feels at the Daniel Caesar concert

On Sunday night: The first stop on the singer’s Asia tour, Daniel Caesar arrives in Singapore with his signature blend of R&B, gospel and folk in tow. His latest album Sons of Spergy is a meditation on the messiness of loving: devotion, doubt, heartbreak and everything in-between. For a croon to ‘Who Knows’—or perhaps just one last excuse to romanticise your life before Monday—there’s no better way to close out the weekend.

Bounce to the beat with Charli XCX’s new single

On Friday night: Our Brat pop icon, Charli XCX, is back, entering a new era with the release of her latest single and music video, ‘Rock Music’. Directed by Aidan Zamiri, the gritty black-and-white video sees Charli trading neon club dance floors for grainy city streets and crunchy guitars. Intentionally messy and chaotic, the track leans into rock while still holding onto the sharp electronic edge that defines her music style.

Dive into the nuances of desire at Passion is Volcanic: Desire in Southeast Asian Art (R18)

On Saturday afternoon: The stigmatised topics of desire, the body and sexuality are brought to the forefront at National Gallery Singapore’s newest exhibition. Gathering over 70 works spanning painting, sculptural installation, photography and video by regional artists, the exhibition illustrates how these themes shape our understanding of identity and intimacy. Explored across three sections, it traces how erotica has been embedded in spiritual and cosmological narratives, before presenting artists’ practice of reworking and challenging the subject of the body in postcolonial Southeast Asia. The final section explores the artists’ relationship with sexuality, identity and social norms, bringing marginalised experiences into the limelight. Here, the rapid pace of change in the late 20th century is reflected in shifting moral boundaries, explicit imagery as critique and the diverse voices of Singapore’s art history.

Feast on contemporary Korean flavours at Gu:um

On Saturday night: Known for its premium flamed cuts and bold flavours, the Korean steakhouse takes it up a notch with its newest ‘Hanwoo and Namul’ set menu in celebration of its second anniversary. Each course reflects head chef Sanggil Byeon’s reflective journey back to his roots, inspired by his time spent with venerable monk Jeong Kwan learning the art of temple food. The result is a gourmet affair imbued with thoughtful, refined flair. For starters, its signature Yukhwae Jeon never disappoints. A bed of hand-chopped beef tartare, pickled onions and egg yolk jam is served on a crisp potato scallion pancake, a savoury symphony that leaves you wanting more. The Nokcha Guksu is a delicate, thoughtful dish where green tea noodles are tossed in a house-made charred spring onion dressing, perilla oil and topped with Korean mustard kimchi and tender pork jowl suyuk. The main event, naturally, is A Feast with Hanwoo—a scrumptious platter of 1++ grade Hanwoo lower loin, Jeju Handon pork collar, tiger prawns, Korean chicken skewers and grilled vegetables. A magnanimous feast for the senses, every cut juicy and bursting forth with flavour. It wouldn’t be a true Korean meal without rice, mixed with namul and seawood and served with a warm, hearty Galbi Tang. Where dessert is concerned, sous chef Lee Subin’s modern twist on Hwachae cleanses the palate.

The restaurant’s famous Huli-Huli Dry-aged Duck continues to be a mainstay item, where the whole duck is used to craft the dish. Slices of 21-day dry-aged breast are served with a duck liver parfait and foie gras made from duck leg, finished with a duck heart bushi. Tender, flavourful and delicate, it’s a main course you won’t find anywhere else. To finish, a sweet symphony of ponzu gelée, nori-flavoured ice cream and caramel bites ends the evening on a tantalising note.

Dark red floors meet soft baby-blue walls, creating a warm, vibrant backdrop that makes every screening feel extra special. The opening weekend lineup sets the tone perfectly. There’s Hamnet, the Golden Globe Best Motion Picture winner, a hauntingly beautiful story that lingers long after the credits roll, and Sentimental Value, a powerful drama full of sharp, intimate performances by Elle Fanning and Stellan Skarsgård. For something lighter or more offbeat, there’s An American Actor in Tokyo, following a man searching for purpose through an unusual gig, and Send Help, where two colleagues stranded on a deserted island are forced to face old grievances while trying to survive. So, put your phones away and end the weekend with the thrill of seeing a film on the big screen.

Indulge in Shang Palace’s offerings from its refreshed menu

On Sunday night: Heritage resides in Shang Palace, an enduring legacy of Shangri-La Group—one that has spanned decades with refined gastronomy at its forefront. And its refreshed à la carte menu sees a renewal of the classics alongside new additions. To start, an assortment of dim sum to fill your table, with Shang Palace’s offerings like silken crystal dumplings concealing a fragrant mix of mushrooms, preserved olives and truffle sauce as well as a unique take—a deep-fried scallop dumpling served with a supreme broth for dipping. To make any meal a comfort meal, call for the Double-boiled An Xin chicken broth, generously laden with fish maw, sea conch, chicken feet and honeydew that adds its own natural sweetness to the soup. Whilst plenty of ‘treasures’ can be found on the menu, the Braised Boneless Duck with Eight Treasures takes top spot in a culmination that would easily make a stellar meal with a bowl of rice. Think tender duck meat with a crispy skin, prawns, cuttlefish, pig kidney, chicken, fish maw alongside others, doused in a delectable abalone sauce. One can also veer away from the classics by trying a baked cheesy creation, of diced seafood and sea conch plated in a piquant cream sauce—almost like a deluxe version of a delicious clam chowder. Finally, for a lighter end to the meal, the pandan pudding will certainly hit the sweet spot—one that adheres to a bouncy texture of agar agar, and finished with a topping of bird’s nest.
