For a casual date night at Suntec, 2GATHER at Suntec Tower 2 does a Thai and Peranakan dinner for two for around $60 in food, before charges. Online bookings are made for exactly one or two people, and Monday to Thursday bookings get 10% off food.
Most sharing restaurants punish a table of two: big plates, small stomachs. 2GATHER's dishes are $13 to $21 each, so two people can try four things without wasting half of it. And Eventful bookings here are for 1 or 2 people, so the table is literally set up for you.
Be clear on the vibe: this is a casual mall bistro, not white tablecloth. Think neon sign that says "Taste First Think Later", not candles. The full menu is in our 2GATHER guide.
Our order, at 2GATHER's listed prices: Ayam Buah Keluak ($20.90) for the conversation starter, Pad Thai ($14.90) as the safe bet, Chilli Kang Kong ($12.90), rice, and Mango Sticky Rice ($12.90) to share. That is about $63 of food, plus drinks. Prices are before GST and a 10% service charge, per the printed menu.
If one of you is not into buah keluak's bitter, earthy thing, swap it for Babi Pongteh. More on both in our Peranakan guide.
Thai Milk Tea is $4.50, Yunnan Specialty Coffee, brewed at your table, is $6. If you want wine, 2GATHER sells by the bottle: Oysterbay Sauvignon Blanc $68, Oysterbay Merlot $72, Freixenet Pinot Grigio $78. Pricey for two unless you are celebrating.
Not drinking? The Root Beer Float at $9.50 has no business being this fun on a date. You need to be 18 or older to order alcohol.
Monday to Thursday gets 10% off food, 5 discounted bookings per timing, not on public holidays. On our sample order, that is about $6 off.
