Halia – Malay for ginger – is located in the one-hectare Ginger Garden of the Singapore Botanic Gardens where over 250 species of gingers with their stunning foliage and colourful flowers thrive. The construction of Halia was carried out simultaneously with the development of the Ginger Garden in the year 2000. Careful consideration was given to the special park setting, such that architecture conformed to the contours of the land, the dignity of mature trees, and the preservation of heritage.

In 2001, the Halia was officially opened. The result is an unobtrusive dining room with full-height glass windows, beckoning the greenery indoors, and allowing guests to dine in the Garden whilst still comfortably ensconced in cool surroundings. Decades-old majestic palm trees stand like sentries, guardian-witness to the earthy beauty that is the Singapore Botanic Gardens.

Surrounded by lush greens and picturesque views of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, The Halia is a terrific place for a laidback brunch. The restaurant is situated within the Ginger Garden and plates up mouth-watering and Instagram-able dishes. Start your meal with Freshly Shucked Irish Oyster, Lemongrass & Ginger Prawn Salad, and a Blackmore Wagyu Spare Rib for your main course. Do go for their irresistible desserts like Sticky Toffee Pudding, Candied Ginger Parfait, and Die Die Must Have Chocolate.

The food was awesome! I love their steak which was juicy and just nice the way we like it. The internal dining area can be pretty cramped. View is amazing as we are surrounded by the lush greeneries. After meal, we may go for a walk nearby and following a path, we can see a huge tree. Great place for families.
