Prices may be steep, but there really is nowhere else quite like Flutes for a romantic meal à deux or a special occasion. The restaurant’s setting is as delicious as the food, located in an old black-and-white colonial home tucked away among the frangipani of Fort Canning’s slopes, behind the Hill Street Fire Station. Lovingly converted from offices a few years ago by Singaporean lawyer-turned-restaurateur Stephanie Magnus, the modern Australian menu features such hits as a salad of warm smoked kangaroo followed by roasted Australian lamb rack with lotus chips and garlic mash. Any complaints? The waiters can be a little too quick to top up the wine glass, which can make the wooden steps down to the street a little hard to navigate. Bookings are essential, particularly for the outside tables on the wooden terrace.
