We love the National Day Parade as much as the next patriot, but let's be honest, we're really there for the fireworks display at the end.
If you're planning to live up your National Day like a true Singaporean, i.e. enjoying the parade while eating well, here's a handful of places that'll serve you great food and a stunning view of the fireworks.

You'll enjoy a choice of appetisers like burrata with prosciutto di Parma or beef tartare with toasted sourdough, and mains like black cod with escabeche vegetables or Moroccan lamb chops with cumin pilaf.
At dessert, choose from the likes of sticky fig cake with whiskey butterscotch sauce and dark chocolate tart topped with a cardamom tuile. Vegan and vegetarian options are available too.

The breezy Canopy, which was popular in Bishan, recently moved to Esplanade and is a great place to chill out with your friends and furkids before catching the fireworks. Grab a table in the alfresco area and enjoy your meal with a stunning view of the Marina Bay area.

Enjoying a view of the fireworks from a National Monument just hits different. At The Fullerton Singapore, you can do it at The Lighthouse, which comes with rooftop bar access for an unblocked view of the fireworks when they go off.
