OUR REVIEW ON IVINS PERANAKAN RESTAURANT SINGAPORE
Dining at Ivins Peranakan Restaurant in Singapore felt like stepping into someone’s home for a hearty, home-cooked meal. I visited with a couple of friends who grew up eating Peranakan food, and they were impressed by how authentic everything tasted. We ordered a spread — ayam buah keluak, beef rendang, chap chye, and sambal prawns — and every dish hit the mark. The ayam buah keluak had that deep, earthy richness that’s hard to find, and the beef rendang was tender with just the right balance of spice and sweetness. Even the plain white rice tasted better when paired with their bold, flavorful gravies.
What I really appreciated about Ivins was the casual, no-frills atmosphere. It’s not fancy, but it’s clean, comfortable, and filled with the comforting buzz of families and regulars who clearly know this place well. The service was fast and efficient, and the prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. It reminded me of the kind of restaurants we used to go to as kids — where the food speaks louder than the decor. If you’re looking for honest, comforting Peranakan food without the high-end prices, Ivins is definitely worth a visit.
