#sg61 dining deals singapore 2026

Halal Penang-cuisine chain Penang Culture has priced its National Day menu to the year: eight signature dishes at $6.10++ each, under a campaign it calls 'Majulah Makan'. Its own poster names all eight — Assam Laksa, Nasi Lemak, 3L Bandung, Signature Wrapped Otah, Mentaiko Squid You Tiao, Cuttlefish Kang Kong, King of Cendol and Kueh Pie Tee — which is unusually generous for a $6.10 promo, because it spans mains, sides, a drink and two desserts rather than one loss-leader dish. Two things the reposts flatten. First, the poster is outlet-specific: it reads 'COMPASS ONE, 1 - 9 AUGUST 2026', so this is not the islandwide chain deal it looks like — Penang Culture's Changi Airport T1 outlet runs its own shorter window on selected favourites from 7 to 9 August. Second, that '++' is doing real work: at the usual 10% service charge and 9% GST, $6.10++ lands at about $7.31 a plate, and the full eight-dish sweep is roughly $58.51, not $48.80. The brand's own fine print adds the sting: it cannot be used with other promotions, discounts, offers, privileges or discount and cash vouchers, and it 'will not be accepted after the completion of the sales transaction' — so you have to claim it before the bill is closed, not after.

The 61%-off mechanic is everywhere this National Day, but most of them land on a token item. Soup Restaurant's version is on real food: from 16 July to 31 August 2026 you can take any one of six specially curated National Day dishes at 61% off, on weekdays, at its outlets islandwide. The six are Assam Uncle Lapan Fish, Laksa Prawns, Stir-Fried Pig's Blood Tofu with Mustard Green, Kopi O Pork Chop, Double-boiled Crocodile Soup with Wolf Berries, and Homemade Pandan Panna Cotta with Gula Melaka — a list that leans harder into old-school Singaporean cooking than almost any other SG61 menu running right now. Two things to read carefully: the discount is on any ONE of those dishes, not the whole menu, and it is weekdays only, which means National Day itself (Sunday 9 August) and the public holiday in lieu (Monday 10 August) are both out. Running alongside it are two OCBC card offers worth stacking your visit around — 1-for-1 selected vegetable dishes with a $50 minimum spend till 30 September, and a $7.90 double-boiled soup (U.P. up to $16.90) till 31 December — plus the chain's standing Early Bird discounts of 15–35% off if you eat outside peak hours. Prices are subject to 10% service charge and prevailing GST, and every offer is while stocks last.
