    NEW RESTAURANT

    Full Circle by J.Man #01-05 Thye Hong Centre 2 Leng Kee Road Singapore 159086 Tel: 8031-0141 Open for lunch and dinner Wed to Sat: 12 pm to 2:30 pm; 6 pm to 10:30 pm. Dinner only on Tues. Closed Sun and Mon.

    THYE Hong Centre has a no-vibe vibe that is strangely appealing. It sits in Leng Kee Road, aka Singapore’s motoring la-la-land, far removed from any habitat you might associate with trendy F&B. You don’t feel the need to be judgmental about what you eat here. And frankly, if you were a car dealer or buyer reeling from the latest ARF hikes – who cares if that hint of spice in the amuse bouche comes from cinnamon or star anise?
