Singapore’s Most Famous Cocktail Is Turning 111 And Long Bar Is Throwing A Party

The Singapore Sling is turning 111, and there's no better place to raise a glass than the birthplace of Singapore's most iconic cocktail. On 27 June, Long Bar at Raffles Singapore is throwing its annual Singapore Sling Day celebrations, marking more than a century of cocktail history with a day packed full of festivities, giveaways and a few cheeky surprises.

The headline event? Bring along a whole pineapple and you could score a complimentary Singapore Sling. In honour of the cocktail's 111th birthday, the first 111 guests to arrive with the tropical fruit will be able to swap it for a glass of the legendary pink drink. There'll also be lucky draws, exclusive merchandise, themed photo opportunities and the chance to discover the all-new Singapore Sling Zero, a fresh take on the classic cocktail set to launch as part of the celebrations.

Created at Long Bar in 1915 by bartender Ngiam Tong Boon, the Singapore Sling has become one of the country's most enduring symbols. More than a century later, visitors can still enjoy the original recipe while cracking peanuts and tossing the shells onto the floor (a Long Bar tradition that remains one of the most uniquely Singaporean drinking experiences around).

Hegen, the Singapore-born feeding brand, has teamed up with Disney for its very first character collaboration, launching a whimsical collection inspired by the beloved residents of the Hundred Acre Wood. Designed to celebrate the small but meaningful milestones of childhood, the collection pairs Hegen's signature feeding essentials with sweet illustrations of Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and friends.

The collection arrives in two chapters, beginning with Into The Woods which is a dreamy range featuring minimalist sketches, honey pots and woodland-inspired details across bottles and feeding accessories. Available now online, selected pieces can even be personalised, making them keepsakes long after the bottle stage is over. A second drop, The Hunny Days, lands exclusively at Hegen's Takashimaya pop-up from 1 to 14 July, bringing classic storybook-style artwork to training cups, straw cups and drink bottles designed for growing toddlers. Whether you're shopping for a new arrival or a Disney-loving family, this one deserves a spot on your radar.

One year ago, Gelato Messina landed in Singapore with a simple promise: if it’s not made from scratch, it’s not worth serving. Fast forward 12 months and that same obsessively hands-on ethos is still running the show (from flavour R&D in the kitchen to a constantly evolving lineup that keeps fans circling back for more).

To mark its first birthday, Messina is rolling out a month-long celebration from 28 May 2026, kicking off with a full-blown in-store party. From 6pm, the space transforms into an interactive playground of behind-the-scenes kitchen moments, house-made inclusion stations, complimentary treats and a live DJ, all building up to a birthday cake cutting at 9pm. Guests can also get their hands on a Golden Ticket (think a year of queue-skipping rights plus a weekly free scoop until 30 May 2027).

The celebration continues with a limited-edition Birthday Cake ($120), stacked with Messina favourites like Robert Browny Junior, Mr Messina and You Make Me Unicorny, available throughout June via pre-order. From 2 to 15 June, it’s all about the Greatest Hits drop: ten cult flavours returning for a limited run, from Milo Choco Dino to Pavlova and The Miso Mash-Up, with one new-old favourite released daily. Expect bonus scoops, a special collaboration with Lemuel Chocolate, and plenty of sweet nostalgia.

Midweek plans just got a whole lot more exciting with Retro Night Wednesdays at Jungle Ballroom, Mondrian Singapore Duxton. Designed as a weekly ritual seeking to shake up your usual hump day routine, the evening unfolds in two distinct parts, beginning as a laid-back cocktail-led social before transforming into a full-blown retro party after 10pm. 

Start things slow with drinks from the bar’s signature Jungle Journeys menu—a unique Asian-inspired cocktail series spanning flavours and techniques from across the region. From there, explore the rotating line-up of interactive programming, whether that’s live retro bands and cocktail workshops or singles’ nights and DJ deck sessions. 

As the night progresses, the energy ramps up.

Fico is heading inland. The Michelin Bib Gourmand–awarded seaside Italian spot by Chef Mirko Febbrile is popping up at New Bahru’s freshly opened Factory Block with a three-month pasta residency running from 28 April to 28 July. It’s the restaurant’s first move beyond its East Coast Park digs, serving up a tighter, more city-ready take on its signature philosophy (think simple, seasonal, and seriously flavour-packed). Rooted in Febbrile’s Puglian heritage, the menu leans into cucina povera, where humble ingredients and no-waste cooking take centre stage.

Set within the communal dining hall, the kiosk keeps things casual but delivers where it counts: handmade pasta with plenty of soul. Expect four staples on rotation, from Linguine with pesto alla Genovese and prawns, to Cavatelli with San Marzano tomato and ricotta, plus a rich beef ragù Tagliatelle and a punchy Bucatini alla Gricia. There’s also a small retail corner stocked with thoughtfully chosen pantry goods and artisanal finds.

White asparagus season has landed in Singapore, and Pete’s Place is marking the moment with its limited-time Asparagi Bianchi Di Stagione menu. Running through to the end of May, this one’s all about the elusive “white gold”—a prized European ingredient known for its delicate, slightly sweet flavour and labour-intensive harvest. The kitchen keeps things tight with a trio of dishes that put the spotlight firmly on the asparagus, weaving in northern Italian influences and Piedmontese touches throughout. 

On the menu, expect plates like roasted veal loin with asparagus salad and punchy Brusca sauce, a creamy risotto with Robiola cheese and crushed walnuts, and a seared red snapper dish that plays on the contrast between white and green asparagus. It’s a short, seasonal run with a curated lineup of Italian wines to match (think crisp whites and elegant sparklings designed to balance that signature asparagus bite). If you’re into produce-led menus that don’t overcomplicate things, this is one to lock in before the season disappears.

On Saturdays, Seoul Saturdays brings a shift in tempo with K-music, Korean-inspired cocktails, and a more high-energy, stay-out-late kind of vibe.

On the drinks front, the menu leans playful with Korean-leaning creations like the Makgeolli Cloud and the Milky Seoul Fizz (from $23 each, or three for $40 after 9pm). There’s also free-flow champagne for the ladies alongside bottle deals from $100, making it an easy spot to settle in for the night.

Before burrata was everywhere and truffle oil became a personality trait, Prego was already serving up handmade pastas and wood-fired pizzas in the heart of Singapore. Since opening its doors at Fairmont Singapore in 1986, the OG Italian stalwart has become a go-to for everything from big family celebrations to low-key date nights. Now, four decades in, Prego is celebrating the only way it knows how—through seriously good food and a little trip down memory lane.

To mark the milestone, the restaurant is rolling out a limited-time $40 Anniversary Set Lunch that revisits its greatest hits from 1986 to now. Curated by Italian Chef Davide Bizzarri, the menu dips into the archives and brings back crowd favourites (from the OG Insalata di Cesare to comforting plates of Carbonara and Spaghetti Vongole) alongside newer signatures like his indulgent wagyu short rib pasta with truffle. Even the pizzas are getting their moment, with classics like Margherita, Diavola and the ever-decadent five cheese pie all making an appearance.

And because no Italian feast is complete without dessert, there’s a sweet flex to finish: award-winning gelato by Loh Cheng Kit, part of the Singapore team crowned champions at the Gelato World Cup 2026. Expect flavours like Amalfi lemon with basil and sea salt chocolate to round things off. It’s a celebration of past, present and plenty of carbs.
