The Great Mischief, previously nestled within The Great Madras in Little India, has reopened its doors at The National Gallery. Looking like a scene out of a Wes Anderson film, the restaurant boasts pastel-hued interior, gold accents, scallop chairs and terrazzo tables, a leap from the previous decor that had neon lights and turquoise tiles. The refreshed vibe has a good balance of heritage and modernity, mirroring the art gallery.
The restaurant has a Catalan-inspired brunch menu including The Grande ($22), a classic big breakfast with pimento beans and feta cheese and Fancy French ($14), French toast with poached plums, blackberries, custard, and a dusting of cinnamon with yoghurt. For mains, they serve paella and wagyu rump.
On the drinks menu, The Great Mischief offers non-alcoholic wines including Rosé ($12 glass/$48 bottle), White ($13 glass/$48 bottle) and Red ($12 glass/$48 bottle). Rosé exudes hints of salted raspberry and chamomile, while the White option is infused with toasted cinnamon and yuzu. The red selection, on the other hand, has lemon marmalade and hibiscus in it.
If you are heading down, try to snag a seat at one of their window nook booth seats. It offers a scenic view of the skyscrapers, perfect for couples on dates.
