A few weekends ago, we checked out Salute, an atas kopitiam in Bukit Merah, with my sister and brother-in-law. Despite being located in a housing estate, Salute does not serve your typical kopitiam fare of fishball noodles and chicken rice. Instead, you can find German and French cuisine there.
I was hoping to try the Ramen Burger from Mian by the Traveling C.O.W. but it seems that they have stopped operating at Salute. We ordered pork knuckle and beer from Stew Küche and the pork knuckle was tender with crunchy crackling. Quite impressive considering that it’s definitely not as expensive as what you find in a German restaurant. Beer was good too. We also had the mackeral from seasalt – the seafood place and the whitebait and clams in white wine. All very decent!
We are certainly planning to visit again soon especially since we haven’t tried the French food from Immanuel French Kitchen or the chicken wings from Two Wings. It gets crowded on weekends and queues form very quickly at dinner time so do go early if you want to check it out. You can also make reservations through the Stew Küche Facebook page.

That’s a must-try. Wash down with beer!
Oh wow! I’ve been there twice but luckily it was never as crowded as in your photo.
Yeah, it was really crowded that night!!
